Installation ^

Before You Start

Important: Make sure one Z Series device is programmed with ID 1.
Ensure the Z Series devices are configured appropriately. Power up all devices and make sure they are disarmed.
Refer to device manuals found at http://www.jva-fence.com/downloads.php
If any keypads are connected to the group, make sure they are not on keypad ID 6.
Make sure the Wi-Fi Gateway is in range of your Wi-Fi network.
Confirm the Wi-Fi network has a working internet connection.
Know the network name (SSID) and password.

Starting to Install

Connect the Keypad Bus wires from the energizer to the Wi-Fi Gateway.

Confirm the ‘K’ light is flashing, and the ‘E’ light is not flashing.
It is recommended to complete Wi-Fi set-up before final installation, in case access to the push button is required.
The Wi-Fi Gateway is fitted with adhesive feet and can be fitted to an enclosure wall, or inside a Z series energizer case.
If installed inside a Z series case, make sure it is not placed within the red ‘X’, as it will be
too close to high voltage elements and could result in damage to the Wi-Fi Gateway or energizer.

Wi-Fi Set-Up ^

Android Users: Install and run the App from the Google play store



Android Users, PC Users, iOS Users: Use the Virtual Keypad by following the process below:

Wi-Fi Gateway Configuration.

Press ‘Start’. The app will begin searching for your Wi-Fi Gateway.

Choose your Wi-Fi network name (SSID) from the drop-down list.
Enter your Wi-Fi network password. Press ‘Submit’.

The ‘W’ LED on the Wi-Fi Gateway will begin blinking twice to indicate it is trying to connect to your Wi-Fi network.
It should change to a slow blink within 30 seconds. If it does not, the most common cause is an incorrect password.
Remove power from the connected energizer, hold down the Gateway push button,
re-apply power to the energizer, wait until the Gateway LEDs blink rapidly, then release the push button.
You can now repeat the Wi-Fi setup procedure.
If the ‘W’ LED is blinking slowly, the Wi-Fi Gateway is connected to the Cloud Router™.

Troubleshoot ^

If the unit is still not working correctly, contact your nearest JVA distributor for technical support.
Replacing an existing Wi-Fi Gateway

If the Wi-Fi configuration is incorrect, the Gateway will need to be reset.

1. Remove power from the Gateway, by removing power from the connected energizer
2. Hold down the Gateway push button
3. Apply power to the energizer while still holding the Gateway push button
4. Wait for the Gateway lights to flash in a regular pattern
5. Release the Gateway push button

The Virtual Keypad (VKP) page will be displayed.
On some devices this page may need to be refreshed once to download all components to the device.

Open the 'Wi-Fi Settings' Page to connect the Gateway to a Wi-Fi Access Point

The Wi-Fi settings page is used to connect the Wi-Fi Gateway to a 2.4GHz Access Point (AP).
Pressing the Scan button will start the search for nearby Access Points, which will be displayed in the list.
The signal strength of each AP will be listed next to the SSID.
When comparing APs, the smaller dB value indicates a stronger signal. For example -56dB is stronger than -89dB.
