System Configuration
Add or Remove Gateways
The AWI module communicates with Graco devices through gateways installed in the system. The AWI Module comes with default gateways set. Use the Gateways section to add additional gateways through which the AWI will communicate with Graco devices. Add gateways before adding additional devices.
1.Click Gateways >> Remove. The popup window shows the gateways that already are installed. TCP Local is the default gateway installed for ProMix users. Modbus TCP Local is the default gateway installed for Informer/ProControl IKE users.
NOTE: To use the AWI Module, Informer/ProControl 1KE users must have purchased and installed Communication Kits 24N977 and 24N978. See Graco Manual 332356 for further information.
NOTE: Do not remove these default gateways. If they are removed accidentally, see Step 2d for information on how to restore them.
2.To add a gateway, click Gateway >> Add. Add a gateway if you accidentally removed the default gateway, or to extend your network by adding additional Modbus Gateway kits.
a.Gateway Type, ProMix: In the drop down menu, select tcp_local.
b.Gateway Type, Informer/ProControl 1KE: In the drop down menu, select modbus_tcp_rtu.
c.In the Name field, type an identifying name of your choosing, for example Factory1, or
Line3.
d.In the Address field, type the IP address of the gateway, established when you installed that particular gateway.
NOTE: if you are restoring the default gateway, the IP address is 192.168.178.205. Be sure to eliminate http://. Use the IP address only.
