Overview

The MiiNePort W1 series is a very compact module that installs in a serial device to connect it to a wireless LAN.
With such a small size, around half the size of a credit card., it can be installed into almost any kind of serial
device. The MiiNePort W1 series also comes with a built-in TCP/IP stack for fast integration with your serial
devices. This means that your engineers can spend less time with the TCP/IP and wireless details, and more
time on developing major features , shortening your product’s time to market. The reliable TCP/IP
communication firmware can be configured easily using a Windows utility, a web browser, or Telnet console.

An integration kit and a complete development kit are both available for evaluation and development use. The
development kit contains a development board, documents, sample code, cables, and accessories.

Product Features

The MiiNePort W1 series has the following features:

• 802.11 b/g compatible

• AES, WEP 64/128-bit, WPA, WPA2, PSK, 802.11i security support

• 1 Serial port, up to 921.6k bps

• 1 Ethernet port, 10/100Mbps

• SSL/SSH support for configuration

• Fast roaming to enhance connection reliabili ty

ATTENTION

Before connecting the hardware, follow the se impor tant w iring safety

Disconnect power source

Do not install or wire this unit or any attached devices with the power connected. Disconnect the power before
installation by removing the power cord before installing and/or wiring your unit.

Follow maximum current ra

Calculate the maximum possible curre nt in each power wire and com mon wire . Observe all elec trical codes
dictating the maximum current allowab le for ea c h wire siz e .

If the current goes above the maximum ratings, the wiring could overheat, causing serious damage to your
equipment.

Use caution

The unit will generate heat during operation, and the casing may feel hot to the touch. Take care when handling
unit. Be sure to leave adequate space for ventilation.

Wiring Requirements

tings

- unit may get h ot

The following guidelines will help ens ure trouble-free signal communication:

• Use separate paths to route wiring for power and devices to avoid inte rf er e nc e . Do not run signal or
communication wiring and power wiring in the same wire conduit. The r ul e of thumb is that wir ing that
shares similar electrical characteristics can be bundled together.

• If power wiring and device wiring paths must cross, make sure the wires are perpendicular at the
intersection point.

• Keep input wiring and output wiring separate.

Label all wiring to each device in the system for easier testing and troubleshooting

precautions:
