8. The GATEWAY IP ADDRESS is shown. The GATEWAY SOFTWARE IP ADDRESS should have some numbers that are NOT ALL ZEROS (see Figure 19). NOTE: The IP address WILL be different than shown (see Figure 19). If only zeros are shown, power cycle the entire fryer battery and wait 5-10 minutes before checking the software version and IP address again. NOTE: An IP address should NOT start with 4 or 82. If so, then it is NOT connected. If it is not connected, repeat steps 1-7 of this section.

[Figure 19: Shows the gateway connection status and IP address.]

9. Press the down arrow button (see Figure 19).

10. View the Gateway signal strength (see Figure 20). It should show a strength of 1/5 to 4/5. The higher the number the better. If it displays 0/5, it does NOT have a connection to cell or Wi-Fi service. See item #2 on page 5.

[Figure 20: Shows the gateway signal strength display.]

12. Press the "HOME" button (see Figure 14) when finished.

STEP 3: CONFIRM THE UNIT APPEARS IN THE CLOUD

1. Confirm that the unit appears online in the cloud.

STEP 4: VERIFY DATA IN THE CLOUD

1. If the software version is all zeros (0), WAIT AN ADDITIONAL FIVE (5) MINUTES and recheck using steps 1-7 in STEP 2 (Confirm the IP address).

2. The first number on gateway signal strength (refer to Figure 21) (Gateway Signal Strength Quality) which is shown at 4/5.

Below is breakdown of first number:

  • a. 4 = Excellent signal; always associated; lightning fast.
  • b. 3 = Good signal; always associated; very fast.
  • c. 2 = Fair signal; always associated; usually fast.
  • d. 1 = Poor signal; mostly associated; mostly slow.
  • e. 0 = No signal; not associated; no go.

[Figure 21: Shows the gateway signal strength display.]

3. If the IP address is not being displayed but the link quality and signal strength are good, then the modem or KitchenConnect has some issues and/or configuration file needs to be confirmed for accuracy and updated again.
