First start and internet connection
Gateway fixing on a flat surface
Once all the electrical connections
between the gateway, the ther-
moregulation accessory and the
ELCO heating product is made, it
is possible to finish the installation
by attaching the gateway to a wall
or to other vertical supports. The
gateway is water protected IP
X4D, however it is not recom-
mended to install in weathered
positions or subject to other exter-
nal factors that could cause dam-
age. The gateway can be installed
on a smooth surface using the ad-
hesive or, alternatively, using the
supplied screws for the wall plate.
First start and internet connec-
tion
In this chapter it is described how
to connect the REMOCON NET
system to internet, through two
different procedures depending on
whether a ADSL or GPRS gate-
way version is used.
Internet
connection
ADLS router
REMOCON NET can communi-
cate with an ADSL router using a
LAN cable or Wi-Fi connection. In
the latter case, please skip to step
2 of the following procedure.
With REMOCON NET switched
OFF and not connected to the
power line, open the front panel,
connect the LAN cable (max.
90Meter) to its connector and
close the panel.
Power supply the gateway and
press the ON/OFF button. For
few minutes the gateway per-
forms its start-up procedure,
during all LEDs will flash a blue
sequence. At its conclusion, the
WEB led remains fixed red,
while the BUS (and SERIAL,
depending on the installation)
remains fixed green.
Note: before fixing the gateway to
the wall, we recommend that all
electric connections and the prod-
uct configuration have to be com-
pleted.
ATTENTION!
Before applying the biadhesive, we
recommend to carefully clean the
support.
3. Press and hold the start-up but-
through
ton for at least 5 seconds, until
the WEB led start to fl ash a
green light. At this point the gate-
way has created a new Wi-Fi
access point that will be kept
active for 10 minutes. After this
time elapsed, it will be possible –
if necessary – to repeat the pro-
cedure.
4. Open the network settings of
your personal internet device
(smartphone, pc, tablet..) and
search for new Wi-Fi networks
available. Select the Remote
GW Thermo network.
5. Once your device is connected
to this network, open the web
browser (Explorer, Chrome, Fire-
fox...) and go to the following
link:192.168.1.1
6. Follow each step of the direc-
tions given in the web browser to
connect REMOCON NET with
ADSL router.
7. Wait until the WEB led on the
NOTE:
REMOCON NET is compatible with
the following Wi-Fi security set-
tings:
- WEP
- WPA/WPA2 Personal
Note:
In case of failure (WEB led red),
repeat the above procedure start-
ing from point 3. The process must
be repeated any time a change has
made on the Wi-Fi line present in
the dwelling, or in case there is a
switch between Wi-Fi and ADSL
connection.
Suggestion:
If the Wi-Fi signal is weak and is
not possible to use a LAN commu-

Fi repeater, available on many con-
