3 ON Notice: If the length of the cable connecting to the port or the Passthrough port of the Flex Gateway is over 1000 meters, the Terminating Resistor Switch must be set to the ON position. Doing so will reduce signal reflection on the line. 1 Default ON Terminating Resistance Switch 1 Activity Fast Blink: Execute Command Blink: Gateway Heartbeat Cloud ON: Success Connected Fast Blink: Shake Hands with Cloud Blink: LAN Activity OFF: Disconnected y vit ti Ac d ou Cl 5 48 RS r we Po Switch Blink: Device R/W OFF: No Activity Power ON OFF Scope of Delivery Contents Model Flex Gateway G2 FG4EUS WiFi Module CPLKUS Accessories Note DC 9~24V D2XH Cable, 3 Standoffs with Screws, 3Pin Connector, 5Pin Connector FG4E Enclosure 80mm * 92.5mm * 35mm Page 2

The RJ45 LAN cable is inserted into the port of the Flex Gateway. The LAN cable must be able to access the Internet without port filtering behind the firewall. Port Page 6

8 WiFi Passthrough 3rd Party Data Logger 7 Port Internet (A / B / G) (A / B / G) D2XH Cable (Provided) Daisy Chain WiFi Module 7. WiFi module is connected to the WiFi port of the Flex Gateway via the D2XH cable. Scan the QRcode to complete the CPS Connect app download and installation by using mobile phones that can access the Internet. Page 7

9 WireBox Port Passthrough (A / B / G) (A / B / G) 3rd Party Data Logger PAD 1 17 PAD 2 The Flex Gateway may be installed in the middle of the inverter Daisy Chain. Or, alternatively the Flex Gateway may be used to combine two separate inverter Daisy Chains into one. NOTE: Modbus IDs may not be duplicated. When the inverters are monitored via the Flex Gateway, a unique Modbus ID, also referred to as an RS485 address, for each inverter can be set up through the LCD interface. Up to 70 inverters can be connected together in the communication network. Page 8

10 Installation Option B External In Communication Box 1 Screw M3*8 Screw M3*6 1. The Flex Gateway may be installed in the FG4E Enclosure as shown. The Flex Gateway Enclosure includes a DIN rail mounting clip for installation in an external NEMA4 communication box. Page 9

14 Open the firewall ports before commissioning! If a firewall is used to protect the network, the following port must be opened both ways (incoming and outgoing communications): TCP 1883 with destination IP If the Flex Gateway firmware version is lower than , the following port must be opened both ways: TCP 80 and 88 with destination IP If the user or site owner is unable to have those ports opened, he/she will not be able to get the full benefit of the remote diagnostics and firmware updates. It is recommended to use a separate modem/router so that the inverters network is not part of the high security network used on the site. Page 13
