Adding gateways

Add a gateway to a site in Energy Hub to make the devices and equipment that are connected to the gateway available in Energy Hub.

To add a gateway:

NOTE: You can also add a gateway as an asset. See Adding equipment for details. The two methods of adding a gateway, directly or as an asset, are interchangeable and have the same result in Energy Hub.

  1. In Energy Hub, go to Setup > System setup.
  2. In the organization model in the configuration area, find the site you want to add gateways to and select Configure site. The Configure site screen displays.

    NOTE: If there are no sites defined yet in the organization diagram, then add sites first. See Adding regions and sites for details.

  3. In Configure site, in the Communications view, drag the Gateway item onto the site tile in the configuration area or select Add gateway from the site tile options menu (three dots) . The Add equipment panel displays.
  4. In Add equipment, choose your preferred method of identifying the gateway and complete the identification process.

    NOTE: You can identify a gateway by scanning its QR code, or by manually entering its identification codes.

Gateway identification codes

Panel Server

The identification codes for Panel Server are its serial number and device code. The device code is only available for Panel Server firmware versions 1.10 and greater, which includes all Panel Servers manufactured after June 1, 2024 (*). Older versions do not have a device code and you can add these older Panel Server versions to Energy Hub without entering a device code.

For Panel Server firmware versions 1.10 and greater, you can find the serial number and device code in the Panel Server Webpages (in Settings > Data Publication > Schneider Cloud service applications management) or through the EcoStruxure Power Commission software. For older versions, find the serial number on the Panel Server Webpages login page.

(*) The manufacturing date is shown in the serial number of the device. The 3-7 highest digits of the serial number show the year (YY), week (WW), and day (D) it was manufactured (xxYYWWDxxxxx). Serial numbers for Panel Servers manufactured on June 1, 2024 or later have a year, week, day code that is equal to or greater than 24221 (year = 24, week = 22, day = 1) –> xx24221xxxxx.

Site Server

The identification code for Site Server is its Site Key. You can find the Site Key in the Site Server Web Application (in Settings > Server > Cloud Connection).
