USER MANUAL 2 Preface Model: GW3030v2 Revision P1A Gateway GW3030 v2.0 2.1 What is the Gateway GW3030 v2.0?
The Gateway GW3030 v2.0 is a self-configuring mesh-routing device in the 3000 Series wireless network. It is intended to be used in warehouses, trailers etc. to act as interface between a 3000 Series network and a PC application (for example AmbientStudio). For this purpose, the device is equipped with a USB port (type mini B) and a RS232 port (RJ11 connector). The Gateway allows the user via a serial protocol- to interact with SmartPoints, MicroRouters and the Gateway itself e.g. to receive temperature samples, to request information or to configure devices. The Gateway operates on mains power and is equipped with a rechargeable backup battery. It can be powered through USB. 2.2 Features 1. Self-configuring and self-healing mesh network The Gateway operates completely autonomous in establishing a self-healing mesh network. It receives messages from SmartPoints and MicroRouters and decides what the best route is for messages to reach their final destination. It adapts its routing to wireless dynamics. If a certain connection is temporarily blocked, messages are sent on a detour to reach their destination. The Gateway GW3030 v2.0 can serve up to 31 MicroRouters. 2. Support for security The Gateway supports secure transfer of messages. Message payloads can be encrypted and network keys are required to join a network. 3. Mains power and rechargeable battery The Gateway is intended to be statically deployed in warehouses, trailers and so on. It is designed to be mains powered via power adapter or via USB, however, if mains power fails, it is powered from a rechargeable backup battery with enough capacity to last for 72 hours. 4. Long range The Gateway has a combined Power Amplifier (PA) & Low Noise Amplifier (LNA) offering maximum radio range. 5. Easy installation, low maintenance Due to its self-configuration capabilities, the Gateway is easy to install and requires low maintenance. Periodically it reports network connectivity information that can be used to increase overall performance. LED feedback is available to assess device status in one glance. 2.3 Conventions This user manual uses the following typographical conventions to mark certain portions of text: new terms, foreign phrases, and other important passages are emphasized in italics.

SPP Click on Apply and Close. Now open the Serial Port. 4. Observe the Gateway appear in Ambient Studio Each Gateway has an unique number. This number can be found on the label on the product and begins with 00:00:... This unique number is used to identify the Gateway. In the Serial Devices tab of AmbientStudio, the Gateway appears after opening the Serial Port.
!! The Gateway GW3030 v2.0 uses newer versions of DDI drivers compared to the GW3030 v1.x. Please make sure you use the latest DDI XMLs in Ambient Studio The Gateway now accepts DDI calls from AmbientStudio and outputs messages from other 3000 Series devices. 5. Set the current time on the Gateway Before the Gateway turns on its networking functionality, date and time must be set on the device. Since the Gateway ensures that each device in the network is able to accurately time stamp messages, it is of importance that the time and date are set correctly. AmbientStudio sets the time and date automatically, however, this can take up to 3 minutes to do so. The time can manually be set using function SetTime of the Network:Gateway driver (3:2:1).
!! Only when time and date are set in the Gateway device it will turn on its networking functionality. Time and date need to be set again when the device is reset. If no valid time is set, MicroRouters in the network will remain in offline state (indicated also by LEDs on those devices) and SmartPoints and Extended SmartPoints will not be able to send sensor samples (these might be logged however, depending on the configuration of those devices) The Gateway is now online and other devices become visible in Ambient Studio. In its default configuration, the Gateway will report network status information every 41 seconds and power status every 5 minutes. In the DDI tab of Ambient Studio, set the filter to select the ID of the device and leave all the other fields untouched. The received queue should then first shown a version DDI(0:2:1) message, DDI(3:4:1) messages and DDI(0:6:1) messages. If the aforementioned messages are being received, the device has started correctly and is operational.
!! Initially it can take up to 8 hours to charge the rechargeable battery. If disruptions in mains power occur during this period, the device might not remain operational on backup battery Ambient Systems B.V.

USER MANUAL Model: GW3030v2 Revision P1A Gateway GW3030 v2.0 4.3 Installation Once the Gateway has been turned ON, it is ready to be installed and mounted. Please have a look at the User Manual of the 3000 Series on how to go about installing 3000 Series networks e.g. to determine where to install a Gateway and how to orient antennas. For correct operation of the device, none of the communication cables (USB and RS232) must have a length larger than 3 meters. 4.4 Mounting The Gateway is best mounted using the GW/MR/ESP Mounting Bracket (order number 900.200.060.001). Please, follow the instructions that come with the bracket. 4.5 Verifying Operational Status Once Gateway has been mounted, its operational status can once more be verified by using Ambient Studio. Use the Ambient Studio Map view to visualize the links in the system and in particular that of the device in question. The operational status can also be verified using the LED indication on the device. 4.6 Periodic monitoring 5 LED Behavior 5.1 Position of the LEDs The Gateway is equipped with two LEDs, one provides an indication of the power source and one provides feedback on the network status. Please note that in the picture below the antenna is oriented to the upper side. Power LED Network LED A solid color in the LED figures indicates that the LED burns constantly in the particular color. A dotted color means that the LED blinks in the indicated color. 5.2 Boot When the Gateway is powered on, the device will initiate a short boot sequence of a few seconds. During this period the RED network status LED will burn for a short period. Ambient Systems B.V. Demmersweg 66 7559 BN Hengelo The Netherlands T: +31 88 2624368 F: +31 88 2624399 www.ambient-systems.net KvK: 08122911 VAT NL: 81297625381 Page 8 of 15 CHECK.TRACK.TRACE. USER MANUAL 5.3 LED indications of network status Model: GW3030v2 Revision P1A Gateway GW3030 v2.0 After the boot sequence is completed, the Gateway will commence normal operation. The figure below indicates how the Gateway will display the three network states: (1) Waiting until time and date are set or in case of operation on battery- waiting on restoring of mains power (configuration option), (2) normal operation mode, the Gateway acts as node in the mesh network (i.e. it interacts with devices in the network and via a USB or RS232 connection with a PC) and (3) the Gateway is temporarily offline due to a change of configuration, no user intervention required. Mains powered Battery powered The Gateway is waiting in offline mode until the time and date are set. Depending on the device configuration, it also might wait until mains power is restored in case of battery power. Online mode Temporary offline mode due to a configuration change on the device 5.4 LED indications of power status When the device operates on battery, the network status LED will blink, as explained in the previous section, while the power status LED is off. The figure below indicates the various states:
Fully charged Battery is charging Ambient Systems B.V. Demmersweg 66 7559 BN Hengelo The Netherlands T: +31 88 2624368 F: +31 88 2624399 www.ambient-systems.net KvK: 08122911 VAT NL: 81297625381 Page 9 of 15 CHECK.TRACK.TRACE. USER MANUAL Battery suspended charging is
(temporarily) Operating on battery Model: GW3030v2 Revision P1A Gateway GW3030 v2.0 5.5 LED indications invoked by the System::Led driver (0:5) In some cases, Gateways can be installed out of range e.g. on the ceiling of a warehouse. In order to facilitate easy recognition of the Gateway or to test the USB/RS232 connectivity, a uniquely LED flashing pattern is implemented, which can be triggered using the System::Led driver (0:5). 2 minutes Use Ambient Studio to request/invoke the DDI function (0:5:1) and locate the device with alternately blinking RED power and network status LEDs. After roughly 2 minutes, the LED indication will display the current device status again. 6 Powering Options 6.1 Battery The Gateway can operate for 72 hours on a fully charged battery. It will automatically charge the battery again, when mains power is restored. If mains power fails before the charge cycle is complete, the Gateway might operate less than 72 hours on battery. Also, the age of the battery and the number of charge cycles it has experienced reduce the duration it can operate on battery power. The duration the Gateway can function on backup battery decreases with battery age and charge/discharge cycles. It also may take a few charge/discharge cycles for the battery to reach its full capacity For a longer battery lifetime, the battery should be discharged and charged once per month. 6.2 Battery charging Once mains power is applied to the Gateway, its internal battery charging circuitry assesses the state of the battery and automatically begins a charge cycle, if needed. The state of the battery is reflected by LED indication. Ambient Systems B.V. Demmersweg 66 7559 BN Hengelo The Netherlands T: +31 88 2624368 F: +31 88 2624399 www.ambient-systems.net KvK: 08122911 VAT NL: 81297625381 Page 10 of 15 CHECK.TRACK.TRACE. Model: GW3030v2 Revision P1A USER MANUAL Gateway GW3030 v2.0 There are a few reasons that can abort an ongoing charge cycle:
A defect battery: it takes too long to charge or another defect;
Battery temperature is out of bounds: the temperature needs to be between ~0C and ~40C to charge normally. If the temperature is below 0C, the Gateway automatically reduces the battery charge current to prevent damage to the battery and it takes longer to complete a charge cycle. If the internal temperature is below -25C or above 40C a charge cycle is interrupted for as long as the internal temperature is out of these bounds;
Too much current consumption by other components. To protect the power supply, the charging is suspended. E.g. if the product is powered through USB, it adheres to the requirements of the USB standard, which limits the peak current an appliance may use. Most of these suspend reasons have a temporary nature, however, if errors persist, please contact Ambient Support. The power status LED will indicate a suspended battery charging with a RED led.
!! Below 0C and above 40C the battery in the Gateway will charge with a very small charging current to prevent damage to the battery In some cases, in particular when the battery is deeply discharged, the Gateway may make a hissing noise. This is normal and does not indicate a defect. Typically, a battery charge cycle is completed within 4-8 hours. 6.3 System::Power (0:6) The System::Power (0:6) driver reports information about the power status. It generates periodical reports indicating the internal temperature of the product, time it took to charge the battery, how long it has operated on the battery and so on. When the product operates on mains power, a report is generated once every 15 minutes, otherwise every 5 minutes an update is provided. If the mains power is lost, the device immediately generates an alert. 6.4 Configuring the use of the backup battery Since the Gateway uses the USB port for both communication to a PC and powering of the device, the Gateway is configured by default to turn off the network once mains power fails.
!! By default, the Gateway GW3030 v2.0 will turn off its networking functionality is not mains powered. This behavior can be configured. Changing the setting is in particular useful when using RS232 as communication port option This behavior can be configured with the Network::Gateway driver to enable or disable the network when the battery is the only available power source.

It is strongly recommended to first read the User Manuals on the Ambient 3000 Series 3rd Generation Active RFID and Ambient Studio. Knowledge of Ambient Studio is a pre-requisite in order to verify the operational status of the MicroRouter and its configuration. Experienced users 4.2 First Time Use 1. Prepare 3000 Series Network & Ambient Studio1 The first step to take is make sure that Ambient Studio is running and a Gateway is powered and properly connected to the PC. The Gateway needs to show its online status in Ambient Studio. The green LED of the Gateway needs to light up. Download and install the latest DDI driver descriptions in XML from the Ambient support website. MicroRouters and other SmartPoints can be added to the network as long as care is taken with regards to the network congestion. Navigate to the Drivers tab in Ambient Studio and, if necessary, unfold the MicroRouters branch in the tree control on the left of the screen. 2. Prepare the MicroRouter Prior to turning on the MicroRouter, take the device out of its protective box. Remove any protective material such as the plastic cap on the antenna connector. Attach the antenna to the MicroRouter. Make sure that it is firmly attached.
!! Never use the MicroRouter MR3000 v2.0 without antenna. Doing so might damage the device!
Verify that the gland is tightly closed around the power cable. Verify that the power adapter has the correct plug and that power sockets are available at the location where the devices is being installed. 3. Activate the MicroRouter The MicroRouter is activated by applying mains power i.e. plug in the adapter in a power socket. Within a few seconds the LEDs on the product will come to life. If not, verify that the socket provides indeed power. 4. Observe the MicroRouter appear in Ambient Studio Each MicroRouter has an unique number. This number can be found on the label on the product and begins with 02:01:... This unique number is used to identify the MicroRouter. Once the device is activated, it will boot up and start its default operational status. The device sends a DDI(0:2:1) version message once it has properly booted and connected to the network; this can take up to 30 seconds. The MicroRouter is now visible in Ambient Studio. In its default configuration, the MicroRouter will report network status information every 41 seconds and power status every 5 minutes. 1 Ensure your Ambient Studio version is the latest version available and that you have all required DDI XML files Ambient Systems B.V. Demmersweg 66 7559 BN Hengelo The Netherlands T: +31 88 2624368 F: +31 88 2624399 www.ambient-systems.net KvK: 08122911 VAT NL: 81297625381 Page 6 of 14 CHECK.TRACK.TRACE.

USER MANUAL 5 LED Behavior 5.1 Position of the LEDs Model: MR3000 Revision P1A/18042014 MicroRouter MR3000 v2.0 The MicroRouter is equipped with two LEDs, one provides an indication of the power source and one provides feedback on the network status. Please note that in the picture below the antenna is oriented to the upper side. Power LED Network LED A solid color in the LED figures indicates that the LED burns constantly in the particular color. A dotted color means that the LED blinks in the indicated color. 5.2 Boot When the MicroRouter is powered on, the device will initiate a short boot sequence of a few seconds. During this period the RED network status LED will burn for a short period. 5.3 LED indications of network status After the boot sequence is completed, the MicroRouter will commence normal operation. The figure below indicates how the MicroRouter will display the three network states: (1) Discovering a network or registering with a network, (2) normal operation mode, the MicroRouter acts as node in the mesh network (i.e. registration successful) and (3) the connection is lost or registration unsuccessful, it waits a certain amount of time before trying to discover and register again. Mains powered Battery powered Discovering or registering with a network Registered with a network. This is the desired state of the device Ambient Systems B.V.

In order to facilitate easy recognition of a particular MicroRouter devices, a uniquely LED flashing pattern is implemented, which can be triggered using the System::Led driver (0:5). 2 minutes Use Ambient Studio to request/invoke the DDI function (0:5:1) and locate the device with alternately blinking RED power and network status LEDs. After roughly 2 minutes, the LED indication will display the current device status again. Ambient Systems B.V. Demmersweg 66 7559 BN Hengelo The Netherlands T: +31 88 2624368 F: +31 88 2624399 www.ambient-systems.net KvK: 08122911 VAT NL: 81297625381 Page 9 of 14 CHECK.TRACK.TRACE. USER MANUAL 6 Powering Options 6.1 Battery Model: MR3000 Revision P1A/18042014 MicroRouter MR3000 v2.0 The MicroRouter can operate for 72 hours on a fully charged battery. It will automatically charge the battery again, when mains power is restored. If mains power fails before the charge cycle is complete, the MicroRouter might operate less than 72 hours on battery. Also, the age of the battery and the number of charge cycles it has experienced reduce the duration it can operate on battery power. The duration the MicroRouter can function on backup battery decreases with battery age and charge/discharge cycles. It also may take a few charge/discharge cycles for the battery to reach its full capacity For a longer battery lifetime, the battery should be discharged and charged once per month. 6.2 Battery charging Once mains power is applied to the MicroRouter, its internal battery charging circuitry assesses the state of the battery and automatically begins a charge cycle, if needed. There are a few reasons that can abort an ongoing charge cycle:
A defect battery: it takes too long to charge or another defect;
Battery temperature is out of bounds: the temperature needs to be between ~0C and ~40C to charge it;
Too much current consumption by other components. To protect the power supply, the charging is suspended. Most of these suspend reasons have a temporary nature, however, if errors persist, please contact Ambient Support. The power status LED will indicate a suspended battery charging with a RED led.
!! Below 0C and above 40C the battery in the MicroRouter will not charge to prevent damage to the battery In some cases, in particular when the battery is deeply discharged, the MicroRouter may make a hissing noise. This is normal and does not indicate a defect. Typically, a battery charge cycle is completed within 4-8 hours. 6.3 System::Power (0:6) The System::Power (0:6) driver reports information about the power status. It generates periodical reports indicating the internal temperature of the product, time it took to charge the battery, how long it has operated on the battery and so on. When the product operates on mains power, a report is generated once every 15 minutes, otherwise every 5 minutes an update is provided. If the mains power is lost, the device immediately generates an alert. Ambient Systems B.V.
