Creating a FC-26 Gateway

Kramer’s FC-26 is a K-Touch accessory that can convert IP to RS-232 and IR. This product enables you to control RS-232 and/or IR devices from K-Touch. This article shows how to create a gateway for the FC-26.

1. In the Gateways tab of the K-Touch app, click edit.
   
   

2. Find section labeled ‘FC-26’ and click ‘add new gateway’.
   

3. Discover the FC-26 on your network.
   Kramer’s FC products can be automatically discovered on the network by the app if they are on the same network as the mobile device.
   

• New: FC-26s that have been found on the network and do not yet have a gateway created for it.
• Existing: FC-26s found on the network that already have a gateway created.
• Add new gateway: If your FC-26s are not on the network or not visible, you can create the FC-26 gateway manually.

4. Define gateway properties.
   

• IR: The FC-26 has 4 IR ports, here you can choose to assign specific devices to each port
• RS-232: The FC-26 has 2 RS-232 ports, here you can choose to assign specific devices to each port
• Name: Give the gateway a name
• IP Address: The IP address of the FC-26 (this will be automatically entered if you chose a discovered FC-26)

5. Choose a port and add devices.
   

6. Select Add device.
   

7. Choose device and click +.
   

8. Repeat steps 5, 6, and 7 if additional devices are needed.
