Treon Gateway Configuration UI 2.2.7

Legacy documentation

This page is preserved from the previous knowledge base and describes older Treon products and manual configuration workflows. It is kept for reference and is not maintained against current Treon Connect releases.

Introduction

The Configuration UI is the graphical user interface (GUI) for setting up the Treon Gateway, Treon Gateway 2 and Treon Gateway in Protective Enclosure. This article explains Configuration UI version 2.2.7 as included in Treon Aito Release 7.2 for Gateway.

Access Point Mode

To configure the Treon Gateway via the Configuration UI, you need to first turn the Treon Gateway into Access Point Mode and connect to it via a browser.

1.

Turn on the Treon Gateway and wait approximately 10 minutes until the status light (A) turns from blue to green (connected) or red (not connected) to indicate that the gateway has fully booted. 1.

Press the configuration button (F) on the bottom of the gateway about 10 seconds until the status light (A) starts blinking. The gateway now becomes a Wi-Fi access point. (Please do not press the button for a full minute, as this will delete the data on the gateway.) 1.

Using your phone, computer, or tablet, connect to the access point: select the Wi-Fi network treongw1-serialnumber, where serialnumber is the serial number of your gateway. 1.

Enter your password. It has been provided separately with the Treon Gateway. Please Note: After selecting the correct Wi-Fi network, Windows 10 and Windows 11 may ask for a pin code as a primary access point password. Please use the “Connect using a Security key instead” option instead so you can enter the password. Remember to change the Wi-Fi password later. 1.

Open a browser on your phone, computer or tablet and go to address 192.168.0.1 in order to access the Configuration UI.

Please Note: The IP address is 192.168.0.1 only when you haven’t connected the Treon Gateway to the network using any other means such as an ethernet cable. If the gateway has been connected to the network already beforehand, it may use another IP address.

To find out which IP address your gateway uses, you can utilise an application that shows the TCP/IP values, such as ipconfig for Windows or ifconfig for Linux.

The Treon Gateway uses IPv4 addresses.

In some versions of Windows, when enabling AP Mode and connecting to the Gateway’s Wi-Fi network, the website “http://www.msftconnecttest.com/redirect" will force open in your default browser. This usually only happens the fist time you try to connect and not every time.

Configuration UI

The Treon Gateway Configuration UI gives you access to many network and security settings.

Node inventory

The Node Inventory feature can be accessed from Configuration UI so you can verify what nodes are connected to the Gateway.

• Remember node_inventory can take some time to have up to date information. Also all nodes that have communicated in the past 3h will appear so if the node has been turned off it will remain for some time

Fig.: Node inventory interface.

Node telemetry

Node Telemetry now can be configured from Configuration UI.

• Additional known issue when only one line of data exists for a node, UI bug if installation quality is missing it will highlight red.
• Installation Quality and Installation error only available in WP 5.2 or 5.3.
