This is done from the Configuration Tool (START-> All Programs -> ESRS -> Configuration Tool)
Click on the Managed Devices Tab. Connectivity status is shown highlighted below
The blue symbol indicates connected, the red one indicates not-connected.
HOWEVER for a fuller picture, you should be aware of how the gateway tests device connectivity.
It sends a SYN on a particular port and expects a SYN-ACK reply. This test is performed continually to all devices,
on a regular basis, currently every hour. It requires there to be several missed replies, before the gateway will mark a
device as not-connected. So be aware that the status shown above will not be up-to-date. Also refreshing the
screen will not cause the connectivity to be re-tested.
If you need to do a real-time connectivity check, you should do the following:Open a CMD window.
Enter telnet IP_ADDR PORT_NO where IP_ADDR is the IP Address of the device. PORT_NO depends on the
device type as shown in the following table. Where more than one port is shown, try several. The port/application
used may depend on the revision of software on the device.

If an error message is received, it was not possible to connect to the device. If the windows goes blank without any
message being displayed, that indicates good connectivity.
