2.       Start->Run->input cmd, enter.

3.       Entry the directory “%BREWMP_TOOLSET%bin/deprecated/BTIL/Host/bin”;

4.       Use command : GatewayTurnOn.exe --list to show the com port;

5.       Use command: GatewayTurnOn.exe --gui COMX (the COMX should replace with the properly port in your PC) to start the UI setting page on device.

6.       Select any item which has “Gateway” option.
