LumInsight IoT Gateway and
Base Station – Ethernet

Setup Guide (Network Configuration)

Models 100150-201 and 100150-281

Introduction

LumInsight IoT Gateway and Base Station are a set of
Echelon’s Edge Servers for use with the LumInsight 2
Central Management System (CMS). The Gateway or
Base Station manages a network of lighting controllers
and other devices over a LumInsight RF network. The
data from the Gateway or Base Station is back-hauled
over a LAN/WAN or Cellular connection. This guide is
used to set up the LAN/WAN connection.

Setup Guide Overview

This document provides the instructions needed for
network configuration for access by a LumInsight CMS.
The network settings configuration is end-user specific
and requires the appropriate IP address, Netmask, and
Default IP Gateway to be obtained from the IT staff at the
location where the Ethernet Gateway will be installed. A

LumInsight IoT Gateway Network Information Request
(NIR) Form must be completed by the customer’s IT staff.

Information about the NIR form is provided at the end of
this guide.

3. Connect the other end of the Ethernet cable to a
computer (refer to the figure below).

4. Connect the power adapter to the CloudGate and apply
power.

As the CloudGate boots, the system state LED turns
orange; wait until it turns green.

When the boot process completes, the computer will
have an active network connection with a valid IP
address.

5. Open a browser window and go to the address

http://192.168.1.1.

A CloudGate Login page should appear as shown in the
screen below, confirming a good Ethernet connection to
the CloudGate.

Parts and Accessories

The following parts and accessories are required for the
LumInsight IoT Gateway and Base Station network
configuration:

• Desktop or laptop (recommended) computer with
an Ethernet port 

• CAT 5 patch cable 

• LumInsight IoT Gateway (Ethernet model number

100150-201) or Base Station (Ethernet model
number 100150-281)

Network Settings Configuration

CAUTION: Make sure that the computer being used is
not connected to any other network and is configured
to receive an IP address from a DHCP server.

To configure the network settings for a LumInsight IoT
Gateway and Base Station, perform the following steps:

1. Open the IP66 enclosure and locate the CloudGate
device inside (refer to the figure below).

LumInsight 2 CMS Connection

The step-by-step instructions in this document describe
setting up the network configuration and IP address of the
Gateway or Base Station.

After completing the steps in the document, additional
considerations include:

1. The Gateway or Base Station must be set up to
connect through the Internet to the LumInsight Cloud
CMS. Doing so requires a valid LumInsight Cloud
subscription. Contact Echelon Support for setting up
and connecting to the Cloud CMS.

2. A VPN credential is recommended to be set up by the
Network Administrator and provided to Echelon
Customer Service to enable the Gateway or Base
Station to communicate with the LumInsight Cloud
CMS, and to help setup or troubleshoot Gateways
and Base Stations in the network.
