The DW4020 is designed to provide multiple computer connections through a single DIRECWAY composed of three stackable components as shown in Figure 1:
Receive modem (also sometimes referred to as the Indoor
Receive Unit (IRU))
Transmit modem (also sometimes referred to as the Indoor
Transmit Unit (ITU))
Gateway (GWH)
Note: Revision 1 of this manual referred to the DW4020 as the "Gateway," and the Gateway as the "Gateway host." This terminology has changed. Please use the terminology in this manual.

POS terminal
or other device
These units, in combination with an antenna, provide satellite connectivity for multiple local area network (LAN) hosts through one DIRECWAY System. All the necessary software resides on the Gateway, which serves as the router. Because the software is on the Gateway, there is no need for a computer to run client software, unlike previous versions of DIRECWAY.
Figure 1 illustrates the functionality of the DW4020 within a DIRECWAY network. Note that the DW4020 is independent of operating platforms. It can also be used with devices other than computers, such as point-of-sale (POS) terminals or credit verification devices.

Table 3: Cable requirements
Grounding and Cable Choice
Your choice of grounding scheme may affect your choice of cable. Note that meeting the National Electrical Code grounding requirements is easier if you use RG-6 with quad shield. However, you can also use standard RG-6 and ground according to the Code or the instructions in the antenna installation manual.
Recommended cable specifications for One-Way and Two-Way Systems
Cable length from satellite dish to DW4020
Up to 300 ft. RG6 with solid copper
300 ft. to 420 ft. RG6 with solid copper
Important: A higher grade of cable can be used for an installation where a lower grade is specified. For example, an RG6 cable with solid copper center conductor and quad shield can be used for installations where the cable length is less than 300 ft. Never use a lower grade of cable than specified. Be sure to record the grade of the cable used for your installation. The grade is printed on the cable every few feet. Never use a cable which does not have the manufacturers name and its grade clearly printed on it!

Important notes:
1. Coaxial cables with copper clad steel center conductor are not recommended.
2. Do not use splitters.
3. Line amplifiers are required for Receive cable runs of more than 150 ft.
4. If the Receive cable run length is less that 150 ft., then no line amplifier is required. If the Receive cable run length is greater than 150 ft., but less than 300 ft., then install a a line amplifier in the Receive cable only, at a minimum of 25 ft. and up to 30 ft. from the LNB.
5. A line amplifier can only be installed in the Receive cable, not in the Transmit cable.
6. Line amplifier specification: Channel Master 5113 IFD or equivalent.

Installing DIRECWAY installation software on installer laptop

The installation software for the DW4020 is on a CD. The software will enable you to register DW4020 customers. You need a receive modem (IRU) to install the software on your installer laptop PC.
Do not confuse the installation software with the software that is downloaded to the Gateway via satellite during registration. The DW4020 installation software enables you to register customers and configure the DW4020 for operation. The software that actually operates the DW4020 is downloaded during registration.
It is important to understand that there are three service options: consumer, small office/home office, and enterprise. Each option has its own registration server that appears in the Websetup Welcome screen when you start Websetup to register a customer. You must be careful to choose the correct option. If in doubt consult the work order.
For example, if you are installing a DW4020 for a SOHO customer, you would double-click on the registration server for a SOHO installation. If you click on one of the other servers, you will not be able to install the customer correctly.

You need all the items shown in Figure 6. Some of them are in the modem installation kit or inside the antenna box.
If you are using Web commissioning, you must provide an Ethernet cable to connect between the DW4020 and installer PC.
If Web commissioning is not available, you must provide a 9-pin female/female (F/F) null modem serial cable. The serial cable can be used to configure the DW4020 via the serial port. Appendix C – Installing the DW4020 Manually, on page 77.
You will also need the installation work order. This is provided to you by HNS.
Note: At some installation sites, the USB cable that comes with the DW4020 may not be long enough to reach from the installer PC to the DW4020. You may need a long USB cable.

The power supply

PN: 1031105-0001
The DW4020 uses a power supply with the part number P/N: 1031105-0001. The part number is on a sticker on the power supply. Verify that you are using the correct power supply. Do not use anything but the power supply supplied with the DW4020 system (1031105-0001).
Be sure the power supply is labeled ADP 64AB B in the upper right hand corner of the label, above the bar codes. See Figure 7.
CAUTION
This unit’s performance may suffer if the wrong power
supply is used.
This unit must be used with the power supply PN
1031105-0001.
When power needs to be removed from the receive
modem, ALWAYS unplug the AC power cord from either the wall outlet, surge protector, or power strip.
NEVER pull the power cord from the back of the receive
modem. Doing so could damage the pins and also cause a short in the system.
Power supply with the part number 1031105-0001 is to
be used only in the United States and Canada.
This unit must be used with 110-volt AC input.
Other countries may have different standards and
requirements.

Assembling the
components, modem
installation method
Follow the steps below and refer to the illustrations on page 13 through page 16 to assemble the DW4020 components. Note that some cables are connected to the installer laptop until commissioning is complete. Then the DW4020 is connected to the customer’s computer.
Before beginning the installation, be sure that you have installed the installation software correctly. See Installing the software on page 9. In addition, confirm that DHCP is enabled to accept IP addresses automatically on your installer laptop PC. See Appendix D – on page 113.
CAUTION
• The components must be stacked in this order: Gateway on bottom; transmit modem on top of Gateway; receive modem on top of transmit modem. See Figure 10.
• If the components are not stacked in the proper order, the receive modem may overheat and malfunction.
• Do not block any ventilation openings. Do not install near any heat sources such as radiators, heat registers, ovens, stoves, or other apparatus (including amplifiers) that produce heat.
• Recommended ventilation space around the top and sides of the DW4020 assembly should be approximately 6 inches. Ventilation is necessary to avoid overheating.
1. Be sure the power supply is not plugged into a wall outlet, surge protector, or power strip.
2. Lay two of the four clips on a table and mount the components as shown in Figure 8. Mount the Gateway first, then the transmit modem, then the receive modem.
3. Turn the component stack right side up and install the other two clips as shown in Figure 9.
Note: The Gateway and the transmit modem have a hole at the center of each of their four feet. There is a tab on the bottom of each mounting clip, which snaps into place on the Gateway when properly aligned over the hole.There is also a tab in the middle of each mounting clip, which snaps into place on the transmit modem when properly aligned over the hole.
4. Double-check that the components are installed in this order from top to bottom: receive modem, transmit modem, Gateway. See Figure 10.
