General Information
The Ethernet Interface Module (EIM) is a device that
makes communications from a PC to a Greengate
panel or network of panels possible over an Internet
connection. The PC can be local within the building
complex or located at a remote location.
The Ethernet Interface Module (EIM) converts data
packets sent over the TCP/IP connection to RS-232
communications. One Ethernet Interface Module (EIM)
is needed per Lighting Control Network unless using the
VisionTouch software. If VisionTouch software is being
used, it is recommended that an Ethernet Interface
Module be dedicated to VisionTouch use. Please contact
technical support for further details. If panels are not
networked, one Ethernet Interface Module (EIM) will be
needed per panel. The Ethernet Interface Module (EIM)
Device Package comes with the following:
Ethernet Interface Module (EIM) device
● ●
AC Power Adapter

Cable Package (Contains a crossover cable for
● ●
configuration, one phone style serial cable and adapter
head for connection to the lighting panel.)

Typical Layouts
The Ethernet Interface Module may be used to allow
access only from within the internal building LAN or
may also be set up by a qualified network administrator
for external access through the internet. The following
pictures depict these types of configurations.
