Communicate with the Gateway

The Gateway supports RSI and IP data connections.

IP Mode:

To use the Gateway with an IP connection, use an Ethernet connection for data. Use alliance partner access control software to configure the Gateway. IP communication depends on the installation site and network topology. Schlage recommends that the Gateway is connected to a network behind a firewall.

For more information on using POSTMAN in the Gateway IP mode, see Using POSTMAN in Gateway IP Mode.

RSI Mode:

Connect ACP to Gateway using either 2 or 4 wire RS-485 connections. Use your ACP to configure the Gateway. The Gateway has two RS-485 communication status LED indicators located near the RS-485 port. The green LED flashes when the Gateway detects RS-485 traffic. The red LED flashes when the Gateway is transmitting data back to the ACP.

See your access control software documentation for more information.
