1. OVERVIEW
This controller is a Z-Wave static controller.
This product can be included and operated in any Z-Wave network with other Z-Wave
certified devices from other manufacturers and/or other applications. All non-battery operated
nodes within the network will act as repeaters regardless of vendor to increase reliability of
the network.
This device is a security enabled Z-Wave Plus product that is able to use encrypted Z-Wave
Plus message to Enabled Z-Wave Plus devices.
Replication refers to the protocol replication between Controllers that is used to exchange
protocol data between different Controllers of the same network.
The controller ignores any Basic Command class if receiving Basic Set from a sensor.
The controller supports Association Command Class. It has one association group, which is
Lifeline group with grouping identifier equal to 1. Maximum number of devices that can be
added to the group is 1. When the device is reset, this group returns Device Reset Locally
notification.
The controller supports the listed browsers: IE, Firefox and Google Chrome.
1.1 Management Preparations
The gateway controller can be accessed through both Telnet connection and a web browser
such as Internet Explorer, Google Chrome or Firefox, etc… Before you can access the
gateway controller and configure it, you need to connect cables properly.
1.1.1 Connecting the Gateway Controller
It is extremely important that proper cables are used with correct pin arrangements when
connecting the Gateway Controller to other devices such as routers, switches, hubs,
workstations, etc..
10/100/Base-T RJ-45 Port
Depending on the model that you purchased, one 10/100Base-T RJ-45 port is located
on the rear panel of the Gateway controller. The RJ-45 port allows users to connect
their traditional copper-based Ethernet devices to network. This port supports autonegotiation and MDI/MDIX auto-crossover, i.e. the crossover or straight through CAT-5
cable may be used.
7
1.1.2 Assigning IP Addresses
IP addresses have the format n.n.n.n, for example 168.168.8.100.
IP addresses are made up of two parts:
The first part (168.168.XXX.XXX in the example) indicates network address identifying
the network where the device resides. Network addresses are assigned by three
allocation organizations. Depending on your location, each allocation organization
assigns a globally unique network number to each network that wishes to connect to
the Internet.
The second part (XXX.XXX.8.100 in the example) identifies the device within the
network. Assigning unique device numbers is your responsibility. If you are unsure of
the IP addresses allocated to you, consult the allocation organization from which your
IP addresses were obtained.
Remember that an address can be assigned to only one device on a network. If you connect
to the outside, you must change all the arbitrary IP addresses to comply with those you have
been allocated by the allocation organization. If you do not do this, your outside
communications will not be connected.
A subnet mask is a filtering system for IP addresses. It allows you to further subdivide your
network. You must use the proper subnet mask for a proper operation of a network with
subnets defined.

2. WEB MANAGEMENT
You can manage S1 gateway via a web browser locally. The default IP of this Gateway
Controller is set as DHCP mode. Through the connection of the RJ-45 port on the rear panel
of S1 using a RJ45 cable with a router, you will be allowed to have an access of S1 with the
IP address automatically obtained form this router for the first time. (You can change the IP
address of S1 to the desired one later in its Network Management menu.)
Initiate a web browser and input the IP address assigned by the connected router to enter S1
system. Once you gain the access, the following login window will appear. Also input the
default administrator username admin and last four letters of (MAC address + UID + serial

2.4 GHz(G+N), and 2.4 GHz(B+G+N) 6 options can be chosen.
22
SSID: When you would like your Gateway Controller to connect with the available wireless
network, you need to input the network name belonging to the router/access point in the field
of SSID for the purpose of security. This name is also referred to as the SSID.
Encryption: There are 3 encryption modes, including Disabled, WEP, and WPA-Mixed
offered for your selection. Please pull down the Encryption list and select the encryption
mode based on the wireless configuration of router/access point that your Gateway Controller
would like to connect for the wireless security. For more details on the setup in these different
modes, please refer to the following description.
If Disabled option is chosen, the Gateway Controlle can directly connect to the access
point/router without inputting any key.
WEP(Wired Equivalent Privacy) is a basic method of encrypting data based on IEEE
802.11 standard for wireless communication intended to provide the same level of privacy
as a wired network. WEP is not as secure as WPA encryption. To gain access to a WEP
network, you must know the encryption key of the connected access point/router.
When using WEP, you must determine the level of encryption. The type of encryption
determines the key length. 128-bit encryption requires a longer key than 64-bit encryption.
Keys are defined by entering in a string in HEX (hexadecimal - using characters 0-9, AF(a-f)) or ASCII (American Standard Code for Information Interchange - alphanumeric
characters) format. ASCII format is provided so you can enter a string that is easier to
remember. The ASCII string is converted to HEX for use over the network.
Example,
64-bit hexadecimal keys are exactly 10 characters in length. (12345678FA is a
valid string of 10 characters for 64-bit encryption.)
128-bit hexadecimal keys are exactly 26 characters in length.
(456FBCDF123400122225271730 is a valid string of 26 characters for 128-bit
encryption.)
64-bit ASCII keys are up to 5 characters in length (DMODE is a valid string of 5
characters for 64-bit encryption.)
128-bit ASCII keys are up to 13 characters in length (2002HALOSWIN1 is a
valid string of 13 characters for 128-bit encryption.)
23
Authentication: Include Auto, Open System, or Shared Key three options for Gateway
Controller’s authentication.
Key Length: Include 64-bit or 128-bit encryption type. The must have the same WEP
encryption length as the connected access point/router.
Key Format: Select “ASCII” or “Hex” from the pull-down list to set up the key value.
ASCII(American Standard Code for Information Interchange) is a code for representing
char as numbers from 0-127. Hexadecimal digits consist of the numbers 0-9 and the
letters A-F (a-f).
Encryption Key: Enter the password belonging to the access point/router that the
Gateway Controller would like to connect.
WPA Mixed is the security mode which permits the Gateway Controller to connect to any
access point/router with the WPA or WPA2 encryption. WPA(Wi-Fi Protected Access) is
the older standard. It is a kind of encryption which improves the security of WEP; WPA2
is the newer implementation of the stronger IEEE 802.11i security standard. And it
provides a stronger wireless security than WPA.
Some older wireless access points/routers only support WPA. So, you have to select the
mixed mode to open the WiFi service to this Gateway Controller.
24
Pre-Shared Key Format: Select Passphrase (alphanumeric format) or
Hex(64characters) (“A-F”, “a-f” and “0-9”) from the pull-down menu.
Pre-Shared Key: Specify the pre-shared alphanumeric key value in the text box. The
key value can be between 8 and 63 characters long or 64 HEX characters long.
Symbols and spaces can also be accepted.
Click OK when wireless settings are completed, the new settings will be taken effect
immediately.
25

set up the pool address of the first NTP pool server.
2nd Time Server Pool Address: If the “NTP Server Pool” option is selected in Time Server
Type, set up the pool address of the secondary NTP time server. When the first NTP time
server is down, the Gateway Controller will automatically connect to the secondary NTP pool
server.
Time Server Domain Name: If the “NTP Server” option is selected in Time Server Type, set
up the IP address of the first NTP time server.
2nd Time Server Domain Name: If the “NTP Server” option is selected in Time Server Type,
set up the IP address of the secondary NTP time server. When the first NTP time server is
down, the Gateway Controller will automatically connect to the secondary NTP time server.
26
