Stand next to the unit. Everything below is written over Bluetooth and read back from the unit's own account of itself — nothing is trusted because a button was pressed.
Open this on a phone. Scan with the camera and open the link in Chrome — Web Bluetooth needs Chrome on Android; iOS has none. The same page, the same address, no install:https://commission.adsumnetworks.com/blg20/
Defaults for every unit on this site. Saved on this device; export it to carry it to another phone.
Chrome lists nearby gateways; pick the one you are standing next to. The unit asks to pair the moment you connect — enter the six digits printed on its label.
A coordinate that cannot say how wrong it might be is worth nothing later, so every method carries an uncertainty and the rules differ by method. The unit refuses a position without one.
The device's own reported accuracy is the uncertainty. A phone with GPS outdoors gives a few metres; a laptop positions itself from Wi-Fi and will be tens of metres out — the tool will say which it got.
The label is how the unit appears on a dashboard; the identity is what the server knows it by. The key is generated here and shown once — the fleet register below is the only other place it exists.
The unit refuses this until it holds a position and a credential. That refusal is deliberate: this board has no satellite receiver, so a unit installed without a coordinate cannot use the satellite bearer at all — and nobody finds out for months.
Read the unit's own account of itself and compare it with what was written. Green is a match; anything else is the unit disagreeing, and the unit is right.
Every parameter a deployment needs, whether or not this unit's firmware exposes it yet. The tool reads the unit's service on connect: what it exposes is live, the rest is greyed with the reason. The greyed rows are the specification for the next firmware build.
| Parameter | Value | On this unit |
|---|
Every unit commissioned from this device. This is the record the platform side needs — the identity and key for the data plane, the position and provenance for the audit trail. Export it before you leave the site.

Two lights, one per half of the unit. Colour is the state, the blink is the activity; every state is also distinguishable by pattern alone. From PLAN-2026-09-12-leds-buttons.
| LTE light (cellular half) | means |
|---|---|
| amber, slow 1 s blink | not commissioned — waiting for you |
| blue, 200 ms every second | searching for the network |
| green, one flash every 5 s | registered, resting between cycles — the normal state |
| solid blue, then green ×2 | sending, then acknowledged |
| red ×3 | a send failed; it will try next cycle |
| cyan where blue would be | on the satellite bearer |
| cyan, one flash every 3 s | satellite: waiting to attach — can take minutes |
| cyan / red alternating | satellite allowance used up; still working on cellular |
| amber ×2 then cyan | satellite refused: no commissioned position — set one |
| red, one flash every 2 s | data allowance exhausted — parked. This needs a visit |
| red / amber alternating | the modem is under a network attach ban: do not reset it, it clears itself in ~30 min |
| solid red | fault |
| BLE light (Bluetooth half) | means |
| off, green flash every 10 s | scanning normally |
| blue, slow breathe | commissioning window open — connect now |
| solid blue / fast blue | connected / waiting for you to enter the passkey |
| green flash + tick | a write was accepted |
| red ×2 + buzz | a write was refused — read status to see why |
| green ×3 + rising chirp | commissioned |
| three ticks, once | first data sent after commissioning — you can leave |
| amber flash every 5 s | store filling; the cellular half is behind |
| red flash every 2 s | the link between the two halves is down |
| The button (the small one; the other resets everything) | does |
| tap | identify: both lights white ×3, two ticks; the LTE light replays its state brighter for 5 s |
| hold 3–5 s | open the commissioning window for 5 minutes (or close it) |
| hold 10 s, red countdown | factory-reset the commissioning. Release early to cancel |
| hold while powering on | firmware recovery over USB |
BLG20 Commissioner · field tool v2 · built 11 September 2026 with Adsum IoT Coder · powered by Adsum Networks
Commissions an Adsum gateway from a Chrome tab over Web Bluetooth — no cable, no app, no phone signal needed. This tool, and the gateway firmware it commissions, were generated with Adsum IoT Coder from Adsum Networks — firmware that arrives already wired to the production tooling a device needs.
