1 Description

1.1 General description

The devices allow you to set up WLANs (Wireless Local Area Networks) in a
local network. In contrast to a conventional network connection through
copper cables and fiber optic cables, some of the communication is
performed by means of a radio link.

The devices allow you to install a new LAN or expand an existing LAN.
Thanks to their high level of flexibility, the OpenBAT device is suitable for a
wide range of applications. Anywhere that high bandwidths, stable operation
and network security is required, WLAN with these devices provides the ideal
solution.

The devices are dual-band industrial high-performance wireless LAN access
points or clients complying with IEEE 802.11a/b/g/h/n. They provide a high
radio output with a bandwidth of up to 450 Mbit/s. The devices support MIMO
(Multiple Input Multiple Output) and Multipath. The bandwidth is increased by
using the multipath transmission by means of reflections. Each WLAN
module has 3 antennas for sending and receiving, to ensure stable network
coverage with few shadow areas.

You can choose from between a wide range of variants. You have the option
to set up your device individually based on different criteria:

 Access point or client
 Number of WLAN modules
 Number of ports
 Supply voltage range
 Configuration (with or without equipment package)
 Software options
 Temperature range
 Approvals

The BAT-F devices are designed for the special requirements of industrial
automation. They meet the relevant industry standards, provide very high
operational reliability, even under extreme conditions, and also long-term
reliability and flexibility.

The devices work without a fan.

The devices comply with the degrees of protection IP65/67.

1.4 Power supply

Only for device variants featuring supply voltage with the characteristic
value C, K or W:
For redundant and failure-resistant power supply, you have the option of
connecting multiple voltage sources in any combination at the same time.
The device selects the used voltage source automatically.
Switching to a redundant voltage source possibly occurs with a short delay.
If the active power source is lost and another power source takes over the
power supply to the device, the device reboots if necessary to activate the
redundant power supply.

1.7.1 Meaning of the LEDs

The following terms describe the behavior of the LEDs:

 Regular flashing: the LED switches on and off at regular intervals in the

specified sequence (e.g. red/off).

 Brief flashing: the LED lights up very briefly, then remains inactive for a

much longer time (about 10 × as long).

 Inverse flashing: the LED remains inactive for a very short time (about

10 × as long), then lights up for a much longer time (about 10 × as long).

 Flickering: the LED switches on and off at irregular intervals.
 Running light: coordinated glowing of several LEDs which gives the

optical impression that a light source is moving from left to right and back.

5.1 Restarting the device (soft reset)

Performing a reboot, you reset the device to the current configuration.
 Press and hold the reset button 1 to 4 seconds or 11 to 15 seconds.

5.2 Resetting the configuration (hard reset)

If the connection to the device configuration is interrupted or if you want to re­configure the device, you can reset the configuration to the default settings
of the firmware that you are using.
During this process the user settings are lost. Therefore, before resetting you
must save the current configuration on an external medium.
 Press and hold the reset button for 6 to 9 seconds.

During this process, all LEDs light up.

Subsequently, the device reboots applying the delivery settings.

6 Maintenance and service

 When designing this device, Hirschmann largely avoided using high-wear

parts. The parts subject to wear and tear are dimensioned to last longer
than the lifetime of the product when it is operated normally. Operate this
device according to the specifications.

 Relays are subject to natural wear. This wear depends on the frequency

of the switching operations. Check the resistance of the closed relay
contacts and the switching function depending on the frequency of the
switching operations.

 Hirschmann is continually working on improving and developing their

software. Check regularly whether there is an updated version of the
software that provides you with additional benefits. You find information
and software downloads on the Hirschmann product pages on the
Internet (www.hirschmann.com).

Note: You will find information about the complaints and returns procedures

 Accessories

Note that products recommended as accessories may have different
characteristics to those of the device, which may limit the application
range of the overall system. For example, if you add an accessory with IP
20 to a device with IP 65, the IP of the overall system is reduced to 20.
To sustain the IP65/67 suitability for your device, use the accessories with
IP65/67 properties exclusively.
The following accessory parts are not suitable for use within IP65/67
areas:

 RJ45 adapters
 Terminal cable

For reliable receive power and transmission power, you require antennas
that pertain to your application case. The Hirschmann BAT planner,
available free of charge under www.hirschmann.com, provides support in
selecting suitable antennas.
The “Antenna Guide” document provides an overview of the antennas
that can be used as well as the suitable antenna accessories.
This document is available as a PDF file on the enclosed CD/DVD or as
a download from the Hirschmann product pages (www.hirschmann.com).
