1.2 Description
The head transmitter, type "Wtrans B", designed for industrial applications consists of the
transmitter with integrated transmission unit and an antenna-battery case. The transmitter is
designed for integration into the connection heads, form B. Integration into customer-specific
connection heads is also possible. The antenna-battery case is installed on the connection
head via a thread (M20x1.5).
The measured value is transmitted wireless to the receiver of the Wtrans system, displayed on
the LCD display and provided on the receiver via the RS485 interface as well as an analog output. The radio frequency within the ISM band (Industrial, Scientific and Medical Band) is 868.4
MHz. This frequency is almost insensitive to external interferences and allows transmission
even in a rough industrial environment. When using the antenna wall holder with the 3 meter
long cable for the receiver, the maximum open air range is 300 m.
A lithium battery 3.6 V, 2.2 Ah (size AA) is used for the transmitter power supply.
Transmitter (probe) and receiver can be configured with the optional setup program (probe ID,
transmission interval, measuring range and, if necessary, probe type). The configuration data
can be archived on data carriers and printed. Changed parameters can be overwritten again
with the factory settings at any time. The connection between transmitter and PC is established via a PC interface (USB/TTL or TTL/RS232 converter).

4.1 General information about radio transmission
Radio signals are electromagnetic waves the signal of which will become weaker on their path
from the probe to the receiver (this is termed as path attenuation). The field strength reduces
inversely proportional in relation to the square of the distance between the probe and receiver.
In addition to this natural range restriction, a reduced range can also be the result of the following causes:
• Ferroconcrete walls, metallic objects and surfaces, heat insulation or windows with vapor
deposited metal layer reflect and absorb electromagnetic waves and, for this reason, a
deadspot is formed behind.
• Metal tubes, chains, etc. on the probe housing, for this reason, do not fasten any metallic
objects on the probe housing.
• Insufficient spacing between several probes, for this reason, ensure a minimum spacing of
20 cm.
• The antenna is installed at an insufficient height; install as high as possible above the floor
and ensure visual contact between the probe and receiver.
The following values are reference values concerning permeability of radio signals:
Material Permeability
Wood, plaster, glass uncoated 90 to 100 %
Brickwork, press boards 65 to 95 %
Armored concrete 10 to 90 %
Metal, aluminum lamination 0 to 10 %
The maximum range between the probe and the receiver is 300 m in open air and when using
the antenna wall holder for the receiver. The optimum reception can be achieved, if visual contact can be established between the probe and receiver.
If the receiver is installed into a switch cabinet, behind concrete walls or concrete ceilings, the
antenna must always be installed with the wall holder and antenna cable for the receiver pointing in the direction of the probes.

4.2 Possible impairment of radio transmission
Collisions when using an excessive number of probes
When using a large number of probes, do not select a transmission interval which is too low,
otherwise the radio channel will be unnecessarily occupied. A too low transmission interval
means a very high data volume on the selected frequency which can lead to collisions with
other probes. Telegrams can be destroyed during radio transmission caused by collisions.
Figure 1: The telegrams of a probe reach the receiver without collisions.
Figure 2: Telegrams of several probes can collide.

Number of probes
Fault increase
Figure 3: Collisions depending on the number of probes
at a transmission interval of 1s
As the figure shows 3, the error curve increases sharply once 24 probes are reached.
For this reason, we recommend using a maximum of 16 probes for the smallest transmission
interval of 1 s. For the factory setting of 15 s, a considerably larger number of probes is possible.
Estimation of the maximum number of probes
If more than the recommended 16 probes are to be used at a transmission interval of 1 s, select a higher transmission interval to prevent an increased error quota.
Example:
16 probes at a transmission interval of 1s = 32 probes at a transmission interval of 2s
When the number of probes is to be increased additionally, the following calculation results in
the next example:
Example:
16 probes at a transmission interval of 1s = 48 probes at a transmission interval of 3s (theoretically)
However, from a transmission interval of ≥ 3 s, the telegram is transmitted twice. For this reason, the number of probes to be used is cut in half.
16 probes at a transmission interval of 1s = 24 probes at a transmission interval of 3s (effectively)
The identical behavior occurs from a transmission interval of ≥ 60s. From this transmission
interval, the telegram is transmitted three times.
External probes
The ISM band can also be used freely by other devices. External probes can transmit on the
same frequency. If, for example, the probe and an external probe transmit their radio telegrams at the same time, the telegrams are destroyed. Due to the fact, that the probes are not
able to check their own active transmission, no error is detected.
Electrical devices
In a rough industrial environment, radio telegrams can be destroyed, for example, by frequency converters, electrical welding equipment or poorly shielded PCs, audio/video devices,
electronic transformers, electronic ballasts, etc.
17
4 Probe range
Error map-out
The radio transmission timeout parameter on the receiver can be used to map out lost telegrams (either by external influence or collisions caused by a large number of probes) and no
error message appears. The value received last is retained over 2...10 transmission intervals
and the alarm radio transmission timeout is only then activated (display "----").
TIP!
In the event of collisions caused by an excessive number of probes, observe and, if necessary, correct the factors "number of probes", "transmission intervals" and, on the receiver,
"radio transmission timeout".

7.4 Probe configuration
This chapter explains the configuration of a probe via the setup program. Prerequisite being
that the probe and the PC are connected via an interface.
7.4.1 Establishing the communication
A differentiation is made between two different way of proceeding when establishing the communication between probe and setup program:
• Establish the communication with "Device settings assistant“.
This is the case when the setup program is used for the first time
(list of devices empty).
• Establish the communication without "Device settings assistant“.
This is the case when the receiver/probe and setup program have already communicated
(list of devices with entries).

TIP!
At a transmission interval of > 15 s, the probe transmits a so-called link telegram (after a setup transmission), i. e. the telegrams are transmitted at the factory-set interval of 15 s for a
period of 30 minutes, and only then at the set transmission interval.
TIP!
Once the setup connector is connected, the probe automatically transmits telegrams at a
transmission interval of 1s to ensure that changes can be immediately detected by the receiver. After the setup connector is removed, the telegrams are transmitted again at the set
transmission interval.

Term definition
Probe ID
The probe ID is an unmistakable ID with max. 5 characters which is recognized by the receiver.
The ID can be individually changed, for example, to achieve a better overview of a system.
Ensure that an ID is not used simultanously by two probes within the reception range to avoid
malfunctions.
Transmission interval
This parameter is used to define the time intervals used to transmit data to a receiver. The setting of the "Transmission interval" parameter affects the battery service life. For this reason,
act with caution and do not only consider the transmission quality when selecting the interval.
Transmission frequency
The transmission frequency defines the frequency band used to transmit data to a receiver.
The transmission frequency is defined at 868.4 MHz for Europe because special regulations
are defined concerning transmission interval and transmission capacity for the ISM band (Industrial, Scientific and Medical Band).
