FCC ID: 2AT8M-GW-V3X0 Ackcio Gateway

Setting up Gateway (BEAM-GW) This page explains the process of setting up the ACKCIO BEAM gateway device. Installation The gateway can be directly affixed to a flat surface using M4 screws. However, for more sophisticated mounting scenarios, we recommend using the gateway bracket. The gateway bracket can be used to easily mount the gateway on flat surfaces, on pipes using U-bolts, or in other complicated settings. (One of our clients hung it using cable ties as well!) If you are using the bracket, first fix the gateway device to the bracket using M4 screws and nuts as shown below. Four screws/nuts to attach the gateway to the bracket Fix the gateway antenna and the cellular antenna to the bracket as shown below. Note that the Gateway has two identical ports at the bottom for GPS and Cellular (GSM) antennas. Therefore, please connect the cellular antenna to the correct port which is the GSM port. Gateway antenna & Cellular (GSM) antenna positioning - left and right respectively Setting up the Gateway Gateway Settings 1. Connect a 12V DC power supply to the gateway. Ensure the polarities are affixed correctly while the power supply is connected. The power supply can be a 12V DC power adapter or a 12V solar panel power setup. 2. Switch on the gateway by putting the power switch to ON position. 3. Once the gateway turns on, you will see RF LED (Radio Signal) stays steady. RPI LED will be on for about 1~2 minutes later. Do not switch off gateway while RPI LED is solid. RPI LED will be in blinking status for about 4 minutes afterwards. 4. Once the Gateway is booted up, connect the Gateway to your laptop using a micro-

USB to LAN adaptor. Open any browser on you PC and visit http://beam.local On the below shown screen enter the Username: admin Password: adminadmin (or) admin123 Click the (Gear Icon) settings button for Gateway setting configuration. Date Select the time zone with respect to your country and click on Sync" icon to sync with computer date and time. Click Save button afterwards. Radio Select the country and set the Frequency accordingly. Afterwards set the transmission power. Refer to the following link to get your country frequency. https://www.thethingsnetwork.org/docs/lorawan/frequencies-by-country.html Internet Select either LAN or Cellular. If Cellular is selected , choose your respective country and Service provider from the search bar. The APN, Username & Password based on the configuration will be automatically set. Once configuration is done, you can click on little world icon to test signal strength. You may also tick the check box on "Enable Internet Always" if you want to enable Internet permanently. Cellular option for Internet Upload Mode Out of the three upload modes, API, FTP, ACKCIO Cloud one could select either one or many modes to upload the data. Upload data to an API Enter the relevant link to which the data needs to be pushed as shown in Diagram below (1) Upload data to a FTP server/ SFTP server Enter the respective URL, Port, Username and password if any, and the folder to which the data needs to be pushed as shown in the diagram below. (2) Select ACKCIO CLOUD mode if you are setting up project at Ackcio Cloud by entering the Ackcio Key. Activity Grid The activity grid will depict the key functionalities and changes that are conducted in the gateway where one could see information with related to the changes that are made. Using the red circled export icon in the below shown diagram one could can export the gateway logs. Remote Access If the gateway needs to be accessed remotely using a dynamic DNS, it could be done by providing the details requested, as shown below. Once they are provided the gateway could be remotely accessed via the dynamic DNS. Also, during this procedure, it is necessary to make sure that the gateway has the internet connection. The Remote access configuration steps are explained below. 1. Set up a free host name and an account using one of five given dynamic dns providers, using the web browser. 2. Once the hostname and the account information are received, go to the remote access tile and access the model. and then type in the information regarding the hostname, account username, and password. 3. Upon save, the ddclient file in the back-end will be configured automatically based on what the user saves in that model and ddclient will set up the remote access. 4. The user will now be able to type in their custom hostname in the search bar and access the gateway via said hostname instead of ip. Software You can find current firmware & software version in this section. by uploading the software package provided by Ackcio one could update Gateway software when necessary. The steps of the installation process will be shown accordingly. That brings the end to the Gateway Settings.
