Select device Model Number
Select the gateways Band (region EU/US ETC)
for US 8CH gateways Select sub band 2 which will allow the tags to roam on Helium
Enterprise:CH8-15,65 (65 is the gateways TX CH)
Macro: For 16CH gateways Select sub band 1 & 2 (CH0-15)
leave Override CH mask as blank

once the gateway is powers the indicator on the portal will turn green, Note by overing over the indicator further detail on the gateway status is displayed
NOTE: For CLASS B or CLASS C (Used for FUOTA) operation the gateway must have GNSS reception, the gateway must have view of the SKY, if senet detect poor GNSS signal or frequent loss of GNSS signal they will disable class B and Class C operation as GNSS is required for time synchronization.
