This document provides basic setup instructions and safety warnings for the following product(s):
INSTALLATION AND SETUP
POWER REQUIREMENTS
Vision.Net Gateway may be powered via either a Power over Ethernet (PoE) supply or from an external DC pow-
er supply connected via a set of screw terminals.
NOTE: DC and PoE power connections will not operate as a redundant power solution.
A CR1225 backup battery (pre-installed) is used for the real-time clock. External modules are powered from the
Gateway module through the DIN rail bus system, and do not require their own power supply.
The Gateway draws up to 40W of power, depending on the configuration of modules added. For PoE supplies it
is best to use an 803.2bt class7-8 high power source, however in some circumstances, it may be powered from
an 803.2af PoE+ supply. Consult the table below for further information to select the right options.
PoE REQUIREMENTS
COMBINATION PoE PSE TYPE DESCRIPTION
Gateway standalone 802.3af 12W @ the gateway

MOUNTING / INSTALLATION
WARNING! Do not power the system until all modules are placed and
connected as described in the steps below.
To mount Vision.Net Gateway and other modules:
Step 1. Unpack module(s), taking precautions against ESD.
Step 2. Place the DIN rail bus connector into the DIN rail.
Step 3. Mount Vision.net Gateway module on DIN rail, taking care to ori-
ent the modules as shown. Take special care aligning, to prevent
bending the pins
• If used, mount accessory modules close to Vision.Net Gate-
way module to ensure good contact
• Place end-caps on the DIN rail bus to prevent
dirt contamination on the pins
Step 4. If required, install DIN rail clamps (not supplied) as
necessary.
To remove modules from DIN rail:
Step 1. Slide any modules apart
Step 2. Insert flat head screw driver against the tabs to
release. The DIN rail bus may; in some circum-
stances, remain attached to the rail and can be
removed by releasing the small clips, if required.

CONFIGURATION
To configure Gateway modules:
Step 1. Set address using a small flat head screwdriver to flip DIP
switches. Be sure assigned addresses are unique.
WIRING AND CONNECTIONS
CONNECTING POWER
NOTE: Accessory modules are not hot pluggable. If you have
modules in addition to the Gateway, mount them on DIN rail before
connecting power source.
To connect Vision.net Gateway to power source:
Step 1. Connect DMX and or Vision.net cables as needed to the appropriate connectors on the additional
modules.
Step 2. Connect to Gateway module to power source.
• For DC power connection, use screwdriver to loosen screw terminals, attach wire, and tighten
screws. Take note of polarity on the label.
• For PoE, power is supplied only via the LAN RJ45 connector. The WAN RJ is not a PoE port and-
cannot be used for powering the device.
Step 3. Verify LED link on the extensions modules is constant on - lights are not fl ickering for address set.
NETWORK CONNECTIONS
If you are not using PoE, connect a standard CAT5e cable from the TCP/IP network directly to the RJ-45 port on
the touchscreen. If the ethernet jack is used, a static IP address in the same range must be configured for the
jack to be active.
