3 Web-based Configuration

The SureCross wireless systems are configured using an Ethernet network connection and a common Web page browser.

An Ethernet connection can be established from a GatewayPro or from a DX83 Ethernet Bridge serially connected to the

Gateway.

The Ethernet Bridge and GatewayPro each ship with an Ethernet crossover cable. One end of the cable is a RJ45 connector

and the other end is an industrial Ethernet connector. This cable is designed to be connected directly to a computer.

3 Example Layout #1

When connecting a Gateway to a host system, the wireless network must be configured using the User Configuration Tool
(UCT). When you are not using a GatewayPro or Ethernet Bridge, you cannot configure the wireless network using the Web
Configurator.
