Installing your Edge Gateway
WARNING: Before you begin any of the procedures in this section, read the safety information that shipped with
your system. For additional best practices information, go to www.dell.com/regulatory_compliance.
WARNING: The Edge Gateway is to be installed by knowledgeable, skilled persons familiar with local codes and
regulations.
WARNING: The Edge Gateway is not designed for use in wet environments. If the Edge Gateway is to be installed
in a wet environment, it must be installed in a panel box or enclosure with an Ingress Protection (IP) rating of IP54,
IP65, or higher, depending on the location and environment.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of electric shock, power to the DC+ and DC- terminals must be provided by a power
supply or transformer/rectifier circuit that is designed with double-insulation. The power supply or power circuit
source must comply with local codes and regulations; for example, in the USA, NEC Class 2 (SELV/limited energy
circuit, or LPS circuitry). Note that if powered by a battery, double-insulation is not required.
WARNING: When installing the Edge Gateway, the responsible party or integrator shall use the 12-57 V DC or
Power over Ethernet (PoE) power source already present as part of the client’s installation.
WARNING: When installing the Edge Gateway, use a cable appropriate for the load currents: 3-core cable rated 5
A at 90°C (194 °F) minimum, which conform to either IEC 60227 or IEC 60245. The system accepts cables from 0.8
mm to 2 mm. The maximum operating temperature of the Edge Gateway is 70⁰C (158°F). Do not exceed this
maximum temperature while operating the Edge Gateway inside an enclosure. Internal heating of the Edge
Gateway electronics, other electronics, and the lack of ventilation inside an enclosure can cause the operating
temperature of the Edge Gateway to be greater than the outside ambient temperature. Continuous operation of the
Edge Gateway at temperatures greater than 70⁰C (158°F) may result in an increased failure rate and a reduction of
the product life. Ensure that the maximum operating temperature of the Edge Gateway when placed inside an
enclosure is 70⁰C (158°F) or less.
WARNING: The symbol indicates hot surface or adjacent hot surface that can obtain temperature during
normal use that can cause a burn. Allow equipment to cool off or use protective gloves when handling to reduce
risk of a burn.
WARNING: Always ensure that the available power source matches the required input power of the Edge
Gateway. Check the input power markings next to power connector(s) before making connections. The 12-57 V DC
or PoE power source must be compliant with local Electrical Codes and Regulations.
WARNING: To ensure the protection provided by Edge Gateway is not impaired, do not use or install the system in
any manner other than what is specified in this manual.
WARNING: If a battery is included as part of the system or network, the battery must be installed within an
appropriate enclosure in accordance with local fire and electrical codes and laws.
WARNING: The system is for installation in a suitable industrial enclosure (provides electrical, mechanical, and
fire hazard protection).
WARNING: The core module only can be wall-mounted (without the need for an additional enclosure).

Updating the system name
1. To change the system name, make a folder Read\Write and then make changes to two files:
5. Reboot the system to allow the changes to take effect.
(plano)ubuntu@localhost:~$ sudo shutdown –r 0
Changing the time zone
When the system arrives from the factory the OS will usually be set to UTC time zone. To change the time zone to your
location you will need to run the command:
(plano)ubuntu@localhost:~$ sudo mount –o remount,r/
(plano)ubuntu@localhost:~$ sudo dpkg-reconfigure tzdata
Follow the menus the program provides to select the correct time zone. After you have set the time zone you will need to
reboot the computer.
NOTE: Ubuntu Snappy runs a time sync daemon. Changing the time will require a special utility to change the time.
On the desktop version of the Ubuntu OS, read the man file for the utility
how to change the time manually.
timedatectl
. This man file explains
Enabling console login via serial
To enable console login via serial (ttyS6) you will need to edit the /boot/grub/grub.cfg file, save your changes, and reboot
the gateway.
(plano)ubuntu@localhost:~$ sudo vi /boot/grub/grub.d
48
Got to line number 42 and change the first console-ttyS0 so that it points to ttyS6 console=ttyS6. Now the line in the
file should look like this:
42 set cmdline="root=LABEL=$label ro init=/lib/systemd/systemd console=ttyS6
console=tty1 panic=-1"
Save the file, and reboot the Edge Gateway. Upon reboot you will be able to see the Operating System boot process as
well as you will be able to login to the gateway via the console screen that is using the serial port on the front of the
Edge Gateway.
Network Communication Interfaces
The Edge Gateway 3000 series comes with two Ethernet connections, one 802.11b/g/n wireless network connection, and
one Bluetooth network connection.
Ethernet (Port 1, eth0)
Assuming that you have an internet enabled Ethernet cable plugged into Port1, your screen should be similar to the one
below after running the ifconfig command. If the Wi-Fi and Bluetooth have not been configured you will not see
them present in the network device list.
(plano)ubuntu@localhost:~$ ifconfig
Afterrunning the ifconfig command:
After you add a new Wi-Fi connection, return to the command prompt and run the ifconfig command again. You
should see that your Wi-Fi network device has connected to the access point you just added and it has obtained an ip-
address.
Bluetooth
Use the supplied command line utility to add/remove/communicate with Bluetooth devices. The command line utility can
be found in the /apps/bin folder.
Before setting up the Bluetooth connection, a Bluetooth device that is discoverable and can discover other devices (for
example a cell phone)– is called device_2.
2. To see what Bluetooth devices are installed on the system under test run the [bluetoothclt]# list
command.
3. To view the status of the installed Bluetooth device, run the [bluetoothclt]# show command.
4. If the installed Bluetooth device is not powered on, run the [bluetoothclt]# poweron command.
5. If the installed Bluetooth device is not discoverable, run the [bluetoothclt]# discoverable on
command.
6. If the installed Bluetooth device is not pair-able, run the [bluetoothclt]# pairable on command.
7. Scan for new devices by running the [bluetoothclt]# scan on command.
NOTE: Make sure that device_2 is set to discoverable and ready to pair with the Edge Gateway.
If required, acknowledge or approve the Edge Gateway connection request to device_2. If device_2 is found it
should display its device ID on the screen under the last command issued. For example, if pairing with a phone, the
ID will look similar to <phone name>:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX
8. Turn the device scanning off by running the [bluetoothclt]# scan off command.
9. Turn paring mode off by running the [bluetoothclt]# scan off command.
10. Turn discovery off by running the [bluetoothclt]# discoverable off command.
11. Turn the power to the device off by running the [bluetoothclt]# power off command.
12. Exit the program by running the [bluetoothclt]# quit command.
Software enabled Access Point (SoftAP)
NOTE: This feature depends on Wi-Fi card and associated driver support to act as a wireless access point.
To install SoftAP:
1. Login to snappy, make sure the device is connected to internet.
2. Run the #sudosnap seach softap command to find the application from Snappy Store.
3. Run the #sudosnap install wifi-ap command to install the app.
After snap is installed make sure that your system has the following snaps, with the minimum version number listed,
installed on your system.
· network-manager 0.8 canonical
· sw-access-point 1.0 canonical
After the snap installation the service should be running as default configuration:
SSID: Ubuntu
Open-authentication
802.11n 2.4GHz (G mode)
IP Address: 10.0.60.1
DHCP Range: 10.0.60.3-20
DNS server: 10.0.60.1
Gateway: 10.0.60.1
Modes of operation - Access Point
The default mode of operation of this snap is Access Point (AP). To connect to the AP, a client simply needs to discover
a network following the specifications defined above. The AP is configured to accept and forward all network traffic as
a slave access point would on any WiFi network. The AP can be configured to change its common settings such as
SSID, hardware mode and security. To do this, the /var/lib/apps/swaccesspoint.canonical/current/hostapd.conf file must
be edited.
NOTE: This file corresponds to the hostapd configuration file from Linux and it’s manual pages can be found online
at: https://w1.fi/cgit/hostap/plain/hostapd/hostapd.conf
To reload configuration and restart the hotspot, run the $sudosnap service restart swaccesspoint
command.
In the case of a network being manually configured via ifupdown, the software access point will not start as it would
otherwise clash in the wireless namespace. The same is not true of Network Manager configured networks, those don’t
cause the AP to stop and depending on the setup can work at the same time.
In case of any issues, please bring down the mlan0 connections setup by Network Manager and allow configuration
through the provide web interface.
Modes of operation - Client Network Selection
The second mode of operation is that of using the AP to leverage a default interface for finding and connecting to other
local wireless networks. This is the use case of an out-of-the-box experience where the AP is solely being used for
initial configuration.
If you connect a client to the access point and point the browser to http://10.0.60.1:8888 you can find a web interface.
Through this web interface, you can scan for nearby networks of the device and configure its connection to an SSID of
your choice. By doing this the access point functionality is disabled and the device goes into client/managed mode.
Upon selection of a network and introduction of the password, the device will configure the network and reboot. Note
that the client device on which the browser was running should now join the same network to connect to Snappy
Ubuntu Core Series 16 system.
Additional Communication Interfaces
CANbus
The device used in the Edge Gateway 3000 is the Microchip PIC32MX530F128H microcontroller. This feature is only
supported if hardware module presented, OS provides the capability of mutual communication between user space
application and physical module. If there is a specific CAN bus programming requirement of user mode application,
contact the hardware provider of that module for API documentation.
The CANbus LEDs default state is OFF, and will only be ON when data is being transmitted.
Ready to use software to control or manipulate the device is not available from Dell. The information listed below is
provide by the device’s manufacturer. Dell does not have any specifications regarding the function of F/W design of
51
CANBus and PIC GPIO controller. Dell is providing basic ‘bit-banging’ & data I/O transfer capability, the rest is
determined by an ISV’s or SI’s application. Additionally ISV’s or SI’s could acquire other software packages from
Microchip, if available, and download them to the controller.
Microsoft Windows
If you are using a Microsoft Windows operating system the VID and PID will show as HID\VID_04D8&PID_003F or
HID\VID_04D8&PID_003C.
Snappy Ubuntu Core 16
To verify that the hardware is installed when running Snappy, run the #dmesg|grep –i microchip command.
Serial
The RS232 and RS422\485 LEDs default state is OFF, and will only be ONwhen data is being transmitted. The device
nodes are ordered by port position starting with the left most port being RS232.
RS232
Ready to use software to control or manipulate devices are not available from Dell.
RS422\RS485
Ready to use software to control or manipulate the device is not available from Dell.
The transceiver for RS485\RS422 SP339EER as well as dedicated RS485 transceivers XR3088XID share ESD protection
specs of: “All transmitter outputs and receiver inputs feature robust electrostatic discharge (ESD) protection to ±15kV
IEC-61000-4-2 Air Gap, ±8kV IEC-61000-4-2 Contact, and ±15kV Human Body Model (HBM)”
Zigbee
The device used in the Edge Gateway is the Silicon Labs ETRX3587HR-D1. This feature is only supported if hardware
module presented, OS provides the capability of mutual communication between user space application and physical
module. If there is a specific Zigbee programming requirement of user mode application, contact the hardware provider
of that module for API documentation.
Security

TPM is supported on the Dell Edge Gateway 3000 Series. This setting is configurable in the BIOS and manageable in the
OS.
Watchdog Timer
WDT is recommended to be default enabled to active the fail-safe circuitry, Snappy is a Watchdog Timer compatible OS
provides capability to detect and recover system from malfunctions, the design reacts by itself when system hangs
unexpected crash.
Cloud Light
NOTE: If you are using Microsoft Window 10 Enterprise LTSB the cloud light will not function. This is due to a
Microsoft driver issue that was not resolved by the time the OS was released.
One unique feature of the Edge Gateway 3000 series is the Cloud Light. The Cloud Light allows you to visually inspect the
operational status of the Edge Gateway just by looking at the display light on the left side panel of the system.
To enable this feature all that you need to do is expose and program a GPIO register on the system.
