2Physically installing the W8600 SM
2.1 Safety requirements
2.1.1 Ensure cables are away from the high voltage end of the PSU
The safety certification for the W8600 SM is invalid if cables are wired over
or infringe on the high voltage end of the PSU. Do not wire cables over or near
the high voltage end of the PSU.
Figure 1 shows the high voltage end of the SU in the GW8600 SMG and an example of
the correct wiring of the unit. We recommend that you tie cables to the points that are
shown in Figure 1. If you cannot support the cables at the points that are shown in
Figure 1, ensure the wiring is supported from another appropriate point or by an
appropriate group of cables.
Figure 1: A correctly wired GW8600 SMG
2.1.2 Connect cables through access points
Connect cables to the GW8600 SMG through the access point in the upper left of the box,
which has a removable VC faceplate, or through the 20mm knockout holes on each side
of the box. Ensure that external cables enter the box through VC conduit.
We recommend that you always use the cables that are provided with the GW8600 SMG.
These cables maximise the performance of the SMG and make it compliant with the
statutory approval requirements.

2.1.3 Protect unused access points
Cover unused access points with blanking plates.
2.2 Unpacking the W8600 SM
Remove the GW8600 SMG and parts from the packaging. Check the parts against the
packing list that is inside the packaging.
Figure 2 shows the components of the GW8600 SMG.
Figure 2: The components of the GW8600 SMG
2.3 Assessing the MS/ PRS signal strength at the installation
location
Before you install or mount the GW8600 SMG, ensure the GMS/G RS signal is adequate
at the installation location.
The 7-segment display on the upper right-hand corner of the WebWay 2424B
Communicator indicates the signal strength in a range 0–9. 0 is the weakest signal and 9
is the strongest signal.

1. Attach the S-blade antenna to the GSM/G RS module. The module is on the
upper right-hand corner of the WebWay 2424B Communicator.
Caution: The S-blade antenna must be installed indoors.
2. Insert the SIM card into the SIM card holder. The SIM card holder is next to
the connection for the antenna. Figure 1 shows the SIM card holder.
3. lace the battery horizontally into the base of the box. The battery terminals
should be next to the SU.
4. Attach the red lead from the SU to the red (+) contact.
5. Attach the black lead from the SU to the black (–) contact.
6. Wait at least 30 seconds to allow the system to initialise. When the system is
initialised, a signal strength number is displayed in the 7-segment display.
7. Adjust the position of the antenna until the display shows 3 or above.
8. Secure the antenna at the position with the strong signal. We recommend
that you secure the antenna behind the VC trucking to provide additional
security.
9. Disconnect the battery from the box. This step is a safety precaution.
2.4 Connecting terminal equipment to the DTE ports
For a full explanation of how to connect terminal equipment, read the WebWayOne
guide, etting Started With Your WebWay 2424B Communicator.
1. Connect the alarm panel, video surveillance, or other dialup terminal to the
DTE port.
2. Use the screw locks on the connectors to ensure the cables are secure.
2.5 Connecting the power supply unit
Warning: A qualified electrician should connect the mains power supply with an
appropriately fused spur of 3A maximum. Ensure the fused spur is placed close
to the mains entry to the W8600 to minimise cable tugging.
Warning: Always replace the fuse in the PSU with a fuse that is:
•ceramic
•20mm
•2 Amp
•250 V, and
•anti-surge (T).

Connect a mains cable to the TB4 connector on the SU. The TB4 connector is directly
above the knockout hole on the bottom of the box. Use a cable that meets the
specifications in Table 1.
Insulation Doubly insulated
Secondary insulation VC
Conductor make up 30/0.25 mm
Conductor CSA 1.5mm

2.6 Reattaching the battery
1. Attach the red lead from the SU to the red (+) contact.
2. Attach the black lead from the SU to the black (–) contact.

3Configuring the ADSL gateway
1. Turn off the mains power to the SMG.
2. On the board of the GW8000 Series SMG, connect one end of a grey Ethernet
cable to the Ethernet port marked J6 on the board. Connect the other end
into the LAN port of your C or to a LAN hub.
Figure 3: The ports on the ADSL board in the GW8600 SMG
3. To connect directly to a DSL or T1/E1 service, connect the RJ45 connector at
the end of the black WAN cable to the port marked J9. The RJ45 connector is
the bigger connector on the cable. Connect the RJ11 connector to a WAN
port. This port can be an RJ45 or an RJ11 port. The RJ11 will fit into both.
4. If you are using ISDN back up, connect one end of the black ISDN cable to
the port marked J1 on the board. J1 is next to LED14. This cable has an RJ45
connector on both ends. Connect the other end to an ISDN port.
If you are using modem back up, connect the RJ11 end of a black cable to the port
marked J8 on the board.
5. Turn on the mains power at the isolation switch.
When you turn on the power, the ADSL gateway initialises and activates. The activation
process can take between 2 and 10 minutes. During activation, the CONFIG LED flashes.
Figure 4: The power and configuration LEDs on the GW8600 SMG
The CONFIG LED displays a solid green light when your SMG is in operational mode. The
front panel displays the appropriate light sequence.
Note that in operational mode the CONFIG light does not flash. A solid light indicates
that the auto configuration process is complete.
