IWL3000 series 5

Information:

Only the original ads-tec firmware / software is allowed for any of the settings and features described in this manual. Loading of any firmware / software that has not been released by ads-tec invalidates the warranty. Mounting, placing into operation and operation must only be conducted by appropriately qualified and trained personnel All persons who use the device must strictly observe all safety instructions and the manual All rules and regulations on accident prevention and safety applicable at the device installation site must be observed This manual provides the most important information for safe operation of the device Safe and proper device operation requires proper storage, proper transport and handling, setup, commissioning and careful operation

Caution:

To prevent damage to the device, all cable lines (power supply, interface cables) must be only be connected while the device is switched off.

Caution:

All installation work performed on the device must be performed only under safe, secure and de-energised conditions.

Warning of hot surface When handling the equipment with ambient temperatures of 50 ° C or more mandatory protective gloves must be worn. Failure to observe this warning may result in burns or damage to property.

Information:

Always adhere to the safety measures applicable when handling components at risk of being damaged by electrostatic discharges. (DIN EN 61340-5-1 / DIN EN 61340-5-2)

2 Operating and safety instructions

The device operates under electrical voltage and contains highly sensitive components. Intervention by the user is required only for connecting the power supply lines. Should any further modifications be required, it is necessary to consult either with the manufacturer directly or with service personnel authorised by the manufacturer. The device must be de-energised during work. Appropriate measures must be taken to prevent electrostatic discharges on components. If the device is opened up by an unauthorised person, the user may be subject to hazards and the warranty is invalidated.

2.1 Safety instructions

IWL3000 series 6

Caution:

To prevent the formation of water condensate, the device may be turned on only after it has reached the specified ambient temperature. This also applies if the device is exposed to extreme temperature fluctuations. Avoid overheating during operation: the device must not be exposed to direct sunlight or to any other direct light or heat sources.

Caution:

This is a class A device. Class A devices may cause interference when used in residential environments. In this case, the operator may be required to take appropriate measures.

2.2 Operating location

This device is designed for industrial use. Make certain that the specified environmental conditions are maintained at all times. Use in non-specified environments, i.e., on board ships, in explosive atmospheres or at extreme elevations, is prohibited.

2.3 Damage due to improper use

Should the control system have evident signs of damages caused, e.g., by improper operation or storage conditions or due to improper use or handling, the device must be shut down immediately. Ensure that it is secured against being started up accidentally.

2.4 Warranty / repairs

During the device warranty period, any repairs must only be performed by the manufacturer or by service personnel that has been authorised by the manufacturer.

IWL3000 series 7

Information:

Access Points must not shut down the DFS outdoors. An Access Client may shut down the DFS. This setting is switched off by default.

Information:

The lower four channels (non-DFS) can be set permanently if the DFS is switched off. Switching off the DFS also results in the 60s Scan and Radar Detection functions being switched off, however.

Caution:

This information must be observed when operating the devices:

•The device does not offer a "secure" transmission medium

•The devices do not have a deterministic system behaviour

•No MIN/MAX roaming time can be guaranteed

The setting of the applicable regulatory authority and the antenna gain is the responsibility of the operating company.

2.5 General information on the 5GHz version (802.11 A /

802.11 H) ETSI

The device is certified for the use of channels of the 5 GHz band according to ETSI EN 301 893 V1.3.1. In this case, the user is to observe the following:

Access Point as well as Access Client devices use DFS and TPC by default on all 5 GHz channels, both for indoor as well as outdoor configurations. The devices can therefore always be operated with 23 dBm or 30 dBm maximum transmission power.

802.11a channels cannot be set permanently.

Upon activation of the Access Point, the Access Point performs a one-time radar detection scan and then waits for a period of time on an arbitrarily selected channel for a radar pulse before operation on this channel is started. The waiting time depends on the channel and the regulatory domain.

If a radar pulse is detected by an Access Client during operation, this is reported to the Access Point according to 8011.h. As a result of this or on account of a detection made on its own, the Access Point changes the channel with a channel switch according to 802.11h.

The maximum permissible transmission power varies by channel. It is therefore necessary that the user correctly set the antenna gain if the standard antenna is replaced!

2.6 WLAN information

IWL3000 series 8

Information:

It is possible that the hyperlinks included in this documentation which lead to external websites may no longer function due to updates or they may be accessible under a different hyperlink. ads-tec GmbH (hereafter referred to as "ads-tec") accepts no guarantee or liability regarding the function of hyperlinks to external websites. Furthermore, ads-tec accepts no responsibility or liability of any kind with respect to the installation, application and freedom from errors of any piece of open-source software.

Information:

For the efficient online configuration of your ads-tec devices, it is possible to download the current version of the free tool "IDA light" on the company's homepage http://www.ads-tec.de. With this tool you can, for example, define individual parameters or whole groups of parameters on a master device and transfer them to a limited selection or to all ads-tec devices of same design and version without having to make these time-consuming configurations on each individual device. You can also assign sequential IP addresses for your ads-tec devices in just a few steps.

With IDA light you can comfortably provide own groups of parameters according to your specific requirements and modify them at any time.

Information:

Unless Access Client is referred to explicitly in the documentation, both IWL Access Point and IWL Access Client are always meant. The used designations of Access Point and Access Client always refer to IWL (Industrial Wireless LAN) in the following.

3 Introduction

Reliable, robust and secure on a wireless LAN: based on the latest technologies, the Industrial Wireless LAN Access Point (IWL) is the network interface for applications in the areas of order picking, mobile computing and data communication. The device supports all standards such as 802.11 a/b/g/n at a transmission frequency of 2.4 and 5 GHz. Robust technology is a matter of course in industrial environments. Regardless of whether you wish to use the device in a refrigerated warehouse or under intensified heat radiation, the expanded temperature range makes it possible. With the MIL certification, the device is also certified with one of the most demanding vibration and shock resistance tests and thereby guarantees a particularly high level of sturdiness.
