Quick start

Hardware installation

Power on the AssetLinker300 and optionally insert the data SIM, as described in the chapter Installation

Access local web interface

The following information is printed on the package:

  • username and password for the local web interface
  • factory configuration of the eth0 network port (10.10.10.10./24)
  • factory configuration of the eth1 network port (auto)
  • SSID and password with QRCODE for WiFi access

Note

By default, the LTE modem is active and, if a nanoSIM data with disabled PIN is inserted in the (Main) slot, the gateway will automatically connect to the Optimo IoT cloud, making the connection to the local web interface unnecessary

There are 3 ways to access the local configuration interface:

  1. with ethernet cable
  2. via WiFi
  3. with HDMI screen, mouse and keyboard (deprecated, this possibility will be removed in the next releases)

Connection with network cable

  1. configure the PC network port to be able to communicate with the gateway IP address (eg ip: 10.10.10.3 / subnet mask: 255.255.255.0):
  1. connect to the gateway with an ethernet cable to the ETH 0 port
  2. open the browser and visit http://10.10.10.10/
  3. enter username and password

Connection via WiFi

The default settings keep active for the first 5 minutes of gateway power-on a WiFi network of the type OptimoIotGw-XXXX. To connect, you can scan the QRCODE with your smartphone/tablet or enter SSID and password on your PC.

Once connected, the gateway web interface will open automatically (http://optimoiot.gw). If for 5 minutes no device connects to the WiFi network, it will be deactivated

Connection with HDMI monitor, mouse and keyboard [DEPRECATED]

By connecting a monitor to the HDMI port and a mouse and keyboard to the two USB ports, you can access the web interface directly. The gateway also supports, with some limitations, HDMI+USB touchscreens

Configuration of network settings and data sources

Once you have logged in, you can access all the settings described in the chapter Device Settings

We recorded a video in which we quickly present:

  • the configuration of a Modbus TCP data source
  • the creation of a simple dashboard for a photovoltaic system
