1.3 Description
The wi®Series wireless monitoring and control system features meters compatible with a large and growing number of wireless sensors. For more information about the End Devices refer to the separate manual for these products.
The wiSeries Monitor-Controller can monitor up to sixteen (16) readings coming
from eight (8) End Devices. Compact End Devices (zED) are powered by two AA 1.5V alkaline batteries. High performance, high power End Devices in NEMA4 enclosures come with two
choices. The AC version (zED-P/-LCD) is powered by a 5 Vdc universal AC power adapter that operates on any voltage worldwide (110 to 240 Vac). Should AC power fail, the unit can operate on a 3.6V ultra-long-life lithium back-up battery (included).
A number of completely wireless wireless End Devices are powered by two AA (zED-LCD-AA), two C-cell (zED-CCELL), or two D-cell (zED-DCELL) alkaline batteries. These End Devices can operate for weeks, months, or years before changing the batteries. Battery life depends on the type of sensor and other user settings such as the frequency of transmission. The zED-DCELL version is not recommended for shock, vibration or in moving equipment.

1.3 Description (continued)
The End Devices transmit up to 300 feet (zED) or 3280 feet (zED-P/-LCD/-AA/
-CCELL/-DCELL) without obstructions or interference, to a wiSeries Monitor-
Controller connected directly to an Ethernet network and the Internet. The
wireless system complies with IEEE 802.15.4 operating at 2.4 GHz and the user
can switch to different communication channels to avoid interference with other
wireless technologies (e.g.Wi-Fi).
The Monitor-Controller also provides error detection mechanism for inactive
communication and diagnostic information including signal strength and data
transmission success rate to help troubleshooting potential wireless system
installation issues.
The Monitor-Controller connects directly to an Ethernet network and the Internet
and features award-winning embedded Web Server. It is easily configured and
monitored with a Web browser over the Ethernet network or the Internet. CONTROL, MONITOR, AND ALARM: The Monitor-Controller comes standard
with dual outputs of either Form C relays, SSR’s (solid state relays) or dc Pulses that can be used for ON/OFF control functions or alarms.
The Monitor-Controller can monitor alarm conditions for any or all of the wireless sensors. For example, the Monitor-Controller can be set up to trip an alarm if any one of the sensors indicated that it was above or below a pre-set alarm point.
Analog output is fully scalable and may be configured as an ON/OFF controller or re-transmission to follow your readings.
MONITOR AND CONTROL LOCALLY AND OVER THE INTERNET: The wiSeries wireless monitoring and control system provides local monitoring and control, along with remote Web-based monitoring of readings from End Devices.
The wiSeries system let’s you monitor and record temperature over an Ethernet network or the Internet without any special software--just your Web Browser.
ETHERNET: The wiSeries Monitor-Controller is an independent node on the network sending and receiving data in standard TCP/IP packets. It is easily configured from a Web Browser and can be password protected. From within an Ethernet LAN or over the Internet, the user simply types the IP address (such as
192.168.1.200) or an easy to remember name (such as "Oven5" or "Fixture") and the wiSeries meter serves a Web Page with the current readings.
EMAIL ALARM: The wiSeries Monitor-Controller can trigger an alarm if variables go above or below a Setpoint that you determine. Your alarm can be sent by email to a single user or to a group distribution list, including text messages to cell phones and PDA’s. The "Mail Notifier" software is a free and easy program for this application.

The virtual chart viewed on the web page is a JAVA™ Applet that records a chart over the LAN or Internet in real time. With the wiSeries system there is no need to invest time and money learning a proprietary software program to log or chart the data. Chart scales are fully adjustable on the fly. For example, the chart can display one minute, one hour, one day, one week, one month or one year. Temperature can be charted across the full span or within any narrow range such as (20 to 30°C).
DATALOGGING: The OPC Server software makes it easy to integrate the wiSeries wireless sensor system with many popular Data Acquisition and Automation programs offered by NEWPORT, OMEGA, Wonderware, iConics, Intellution, Rockwell Automation, and National Instruments, among others.
The following example Figure 1.1 illustrates how you can hookup the
Temperature Wireless System to your network:
The wireless system consists of a single Monitor-Controller and one or more End
Devices. The End Devices will send data periodically to the Monitor-Controller
where it serves as a gateway between the users and the End Devices. The users
can access the data through the Monitor-Controller’s Web Server and provided
data acquisition software.
A standard web browser can be used to monitor and chart temperature. The
browser can also be used to configure the Monitor-Controller’s IP address,
passwords for access and overall configuration parameters.

2.1.4.2 Antenna Mounting Instruction
For best reception: connect the antenna directly to the wiDR, if the device is not installed in a metal panel or enclosure.
If the wiDR is behind a metal panel or in a cabinet, use a coaxial cable to position the antenna outside outside of the enclosure in the open air.
Use the shortest cable that can reach a suitable location. The antenna on this wiDR and any End Devices should be installed in a vertical position, pointing towards the sky.
Metallic structure should be kept at least 0.8” (2 cm), although 2.4” (6 cm) is recommended away from the antenna.
Any casing that encloses the antenna should be plastic. In addition, it is also wise to avoid plastic case with dark fillers or colorants.
Refer to Section 5 for more Environmental / Operating Conditions.

For the low voltage power option, in order to maintain the same degree of protection as the standard high voltage input power units (90 to 240 Vac), always use a Safety Agency Approved DC or AC source with the same Over­voltage Category and pollution degree as the standard AC unit (90 to 240Vac).
The Safety European Standard EN61010-1 for measurement, control, and laboratory equipment requires that fuses must be specified based on IEC127. This standard specifies for a Time-lag fuse, the letter code “T”. The above recommended fuses are of the type IEC127-2-sheet III. Be aware that there are significant differences between the requirements listed in the UL 248-14/CSA 248.14 and the IEC 127 fuse standards. As a result, no single fuse can carry all approval listings. A 1.0 Amp IEC fuse is approximately equivalent to a 1.4 Amp UL/CSA fuse. It is advised to consult the manufacturer’s data sheets for a cross-reference.

2.2.1 10Base-T RJ-45 Pinout
The 10BASE-T Ethernet network (RJ-45) system is used in the wiDR for network connectivity. The 10 Mbps twisted-pair Ethernet system operates over two pairs of wires. One pair is used for receiving data signals and the other pair is used for transmitting data signals. This means that four pins of the eight-pin connector are used.

PART 3
NET.ADDR
NID LABEL
NETWORK CONFIGURATION
3.1 Ethernet (MAC) Address
MAC (Media Access Control) address is your computer's unique hardware number. When you're connected to the LAN from your computer, a correspondence table relates your IP address to your computer's physical (MAC) address. The MAC address can be found on the label of your wiDR (see Figure
3.1) and contains 6 bytes (12 characters) of hexadecimal numbers XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX For Example
Remove the small label with the default IP address and there will be room to put your IP address.
There is also a small label for your Network ID address (NID).
: 0A:0C:3D:0B:0A:0B
Figure 3.1 Label Detail
3.2 Network Protocols
The wiDR can be connected to the network using standard TCP/IP protocols. It also supports ARP, HTTP (Web Server), DHCP, DNS and Telnet protocols.
3.3 DHCP
DHCP, Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol enables computers and devices to extract their IP configurations from a server (DHCP server).
If DHCP is enabled on your wiDR, as soon as the wiDR is connected to the network, there is an exchange of information between DHCP server and the wiDR. During this process the IP address, the Gateway address, and the Subnet Mask will be assigned to the wiDR by the DHCP server.
15
3.3 DHCP (continued)
The wiDR is shipped with DHCP disabled (factory default). If fixed or static IP address is desired, the DHCP must be disabled. The DHCP can be enabled by setting the DIP switch # 3 to the “ON” position
Figure 3.2 4 Position DIP Switch
Setting the wiDR’s IP address to 0.0.0.0 will also enable DHCP.
3.4 DNS
DNS, Domain Name System enables computers and devices to be recognized over a network based on a specific name instead of IP addresses.
For example, instead of having to use http://192.168.1.200 (IP address), you would use only http://wis03ec or any eight character name stored as Host
Name under "Access Control" page from the Wireless System Home Page. The default DNS name for the wiDR is "wis" followed by the last four digits of
the MAC address of that particular wiDR.
1. It is very important to communicate with the network administrator in order to understand DHCP and its existing configurations on the host server, before enabling DHCP on the wiDR.
2. The wiDR units are shipped with a default static IP address of
192.168.1.200 and Subnet Mask of 255.255.255.0.
3. On Windows servers where DCHP and DNS are separate functions it is very important to configure the DHCP server to communicate with DNS in order for the iServer’s Host Name to correctly respond. If you cannot access the iServer using its Host Name, please contact your network administrator to make sure the DHCP and DNS servers are linked together.
16
3.5 IP Address
Every active device connected to the TCP/IP network must have a unique IP address. This IP address is used to establish a connection to the wiDR. Every computer using TCP/IP should have a unique 32-bit address which is divided into two portions, the network ID and the host ID. For instance, every computer on the same network uses the same network ID. At the same time, all of them have a different host ID. For more details about the IP address see Appendix B.
3.5.1 Default IP Address
The wiDR is shipped with a default IP address of 192.168.1.200 and Subnet Mask of 255.255.255.0. If you are going to use a Web browser or Telnet program to access the wiDR using its default IP address, make sure that the PC from which you’re establishing the connection has an IP address that is in the same range as the wiDR’s IP address (192.168.1.x, where x can be any number from 1 to 254). See Section 3.5.2.
Your PC’s IP address cannot
You also need to make sure that your PC’s Subnet Mask is 255.255.255.0. This is a good way to access the wiDR over the network and make any configuration changes needed. If 192.168.1.200 is already in use on your network, use an Ethernet crossover cable between your computer and the wiDR to change the IP address or any other settings within the wiDR.
be the same as the wiDR’s IP address.

PART 4 NETWORK OPERATIONS
This wiDR can be used and configured in several ways, depending on user’s preference and network setup. It can be configured using a Web browser, like Internet Explorer. It can also be configured using the iConnect Configuration Software.
If DHCP and DNS servers are configured to exchange information, the connection will be very simple. All you need to do is to enable DHCP on the wiDR (see Section 3.3) and use a straight through network cable to connect the wiDR to an Ethernet hub or switch and power it up. Now, you can use the wiDR’s default Host (Domain) Name, which is wisxxxx (where xxxx are the last four characters of its MAC address) to access the wiDR’s Web Server.
If DHCP is not the preferred method, you can configure your PC’s network connection with an IP address of 192.168.1.x that is in the same range as the wiDR’s default IP address (192.168.1.200) and connect to the wiDR using a cross- over network cable between your PC’s network port and the wiDR. After you’re done with configuring the wiDR, you can always set your PC back to its original settings. See Section 3.5.2 for more details.
On your computer, from the MS-DOS Prompt window type "ping 192.168.1.200” and press Enter. If DHCP and DNS servers are used type “ping wisxxxx”, where xxxx are the last four digits of the wiDR’s MAC address, located on the wiDR. You should get a reply as shown in Figure 4.1.
You can use the host name (wisxxxx) instead of the IP address only if your
DHCP server is configured to communicate with your DNS. Please consult with your IT department for details.

Besides using the iConnect software, you may use the wiDR’s default IP address to access it and assign a new IP address to it.
The wiDR is shipped with a default IP address of 192.168.1.200 and Subnet Mask of 255.255.255.0. You can configure your PC’s Network connection with an IP address that is in the same range as the wiDR’s IP address (192.168.1.x) and connect to the wiDR using a crossover network cable between your PC and the wiDR.
With this completed, you can go to the DOS-Prompt and ping 192.168.1.200. If you receive responses back (Figure 4.1), you can go to the Web browser and

4.3.1 Power Up wiDR
For instructions on how to power the wiDR, refer to Section 2.1.5. To verify that an End Device is working before deploying remotely, install the
battery and power it on right next to the wiDR. When the End Device is powered on, it will search for the wiDR in all 16 channels reserved for IEEE 802.15.4 (channel 11 through 26) by sending request packets.
While it’s searching, the blue LED on the End Device blinks every second. Once the wiDR responds to the End Device request, the LED will blink only when the End Device sends data to the wiDR (default is every 10 seconds). If the wiDR is not powered or it’s out of reach, the End Device will keep searching until the batteries discharge (e.g. roughly 36 hours for zED).
Once the wiDR responds back to the End Device it will include its network number in the response packet called Beacon. At this time the End Device would know which is the correct wiDR (as there could be more than one wiDR responding to the End Device’s request packet). The channel on which the wiDR responds back is automatically picked to be the clearest among all 16 channels and therefore the End Device starts sending data to the wiDR on that particular channel.
24
4.3.1 Power Up wiDR (continued)
Once the End Devices and the wiDR start communicating, make sure to leave DIP switch #1 of the wiDR to OFF position. This will lock the wiDR on the same channel it initially established the connection.
After the End Device transmits data to the wiDR, it expects an acknowledgment packet back from the wiDR. If the End Device does not receive an acknowledgment packet back within 50 ms, it will go to sleep mode for 2 seconds and then retransmit the data.
This cycle will be repeated 10 times and if it still does not receive the acknowledgment packet back, the End Device takes a longer sleep time of 3 minutes.
After 3 minutes, the End Device retransmits the data every 2 seconds for 4 times and each time it waits for 50 ms for an acknowledgment. If it still does not receive a response back from the wiDR it will take another 3 minutes of sleep.
This last sequence will continue until the batteries are drained. Through the whole retransmission cycle explained above the blue LED on the End Device will blink anytime retransmission takes place.
The data being retransmitted will automatically get updated as new readings take place.
If the communication channel is manually selected in the wiDR, the End Device(s) must be power-cycled in order to establish connection over the new channel.
If it’s not possible to power-cycle the End Devices locally, a remote option is available through the wiDR’s Web server.
When there are two End Devices with the same Device ID, both will be transmitting data every second with their LEDs blinking once a second. The wiDR will receive data from both End Devices and will display their data alternately. On the “Readings”, “Chart”, and “Diagnostic” pages of the wiDR’s Web server, the phrase “ID” error code will be placed indicating the conflict. Once the problem is resolved, click on the “Reset Sensor” button located on the Sensors Parameters page to remove the “ID” error code.

4.3.3.2 Java Runtime Environment 1.4 Setup Instructions
1. Go to your computer's Control Panel. Open the Java Plug-in
2. Select the "Cache" Tab Un-check the "Enable Caching" box
3. Select the "Proxy" Tab. Follow these Browser Proxy Selection instructions below. (Generally, un-check the box if accessing the wiDR on your local network and check the box for access from your internal network to the internet.)
4. Refresh or restart the webpage.
To disable cache setting: For Java Version 1.4.2.x it is found under the CACHE TAB.

4.3.3.3 Browser Proxy Selection
Accessing wiDR units within your internal network
Usually when the computer and wiDRs are on an internal network, you will
not use Proxy server access.
You should un-check the "Use Browser Settings" option on the "Proxy" tab. Accessing wiDR units using the internet
Often the web browser will use Proxy server access to the internet. In such
cases, the default Java runtime settings on the "Proxy" tab should suffice. The default setting is the "Use Browser Settings" option.
If the default proxy setting doesn't work, then you may have a situation where the proxy settings of the web browser are incorrect.
Diagnostics:
If the web page of the Wireless System appears, then the HTTP Proxy is working fine.
If the data isn't updated on the Wireless System upon selecting the “Readings” page, there may be a problem with access through a winsock proxy server. In such cases your network administrator will need to provide the winsock proxy server and port #s. (The TCP ports the wiDR uses for Java applets are 1000 and 2003).
These values should be entered into the Socks line on the "Proxy" tab (of the Java Plugin control panel) or into the "connections" tab on the View,Internet Options dialog and make sure that the Proxy tab shows that the "Use Browser Settings" option is not selected (i.e. when you specify proxy connections in the Java Plugin control panel.
Accessing wiDR units over Peer-to-Peer network
A simple peer-to-peer network is setup by disconnecting from the main network (as users will often do when trying to do initial setup of the wiDR) and then connecting the wiDR to another computer using a ethernet hub, an ethernet switch, or a Cross-over cable connection.
Often when using a peer-to-peer network, the Java plugin and the web browser (such as Internet Explorer) have internet connections configured to connect through proxy servers. In such case, you will need to simply assign the final IP address on this peer to peer network and then view the Wireless System charts after connecting the wiDR into the regular network. Otherwise you can disable the Java plug-in's "Use Browser Settings" temporarily and then reconfigure the Java plug-in settings for regular network access after testing the Wireless System chart access on your peer-to-peer network.
The "Use Browser Settings" should not be selected. And the HTTP and Socks proxy entries should be blank. Also, setup the internet browser so that proxy servers are disabled.

4.3.4 Java Policy
To activate data logging and save graphs from the Java applets, it is necessary to create a Java Policy file and copy it onto a folder.
1) Open a Notepad file and using the IP address of the wiDR type the
following:
grant codeBase “http://192.168.1.200/” {
permission java.security.AllPermission “*”, “*”;
};
This file should have the IP address of the wiDR; in this case the default IP address is 192.168.1.200. If the IP address is changed, then the IP address shown in the file needs to be changed; otherwise, it will not work. If more than one wiDR is being monitored from the same computer, it is necessary to repeat the above for each of the wiDRs in the same “java_policy.txt” file.
If DHCP/DNS is enabled, the unique wiDR’s name using DNS should replace the IP address. Example: “http:\\zServer_TEST”. Make sure the DHCP server updates the DNS table to keep track of the wiDR’s name and IP addresses (consult with your network administrator).
2) Save the file as java_policy.txt.
3) Create a folder in your C: drive called “0_JAVAPOLICY”.
4) Place the java_policy.txt file into the “0_JAVAPOLICY” folder.

4.3.7.2 Setpoints & On/Off Control
Auto Setpoint Deviation: If “enabled”, allows changes to Setpoint 1 to be
made automatically to Setpoint 2. This mode is very helpful if the Temperature changes often.
In Setpoint Deviation Mode, set SP2 a certain number of degrees or counts away from SP1--this relation remains fixed when SP1 is changed.
For instance: Setting SP1=200 and SP2=20 and enabling SP Deviation means that the
absolute value of SP2=220. Moving SP1 to 300, the absolute value of SP2 becomes 320.
Setpoint 1: This setpoint controls Output 1. Setpoint 2: This setpoint controls Output 2. Permanent Store: Check to save Setpoints in the wiDR’s permanent storage. On/Off 1 and On/Off 2: To enable and disable On/Off Control.
Enabling On/Off Controls will disable the Alarms, and vice versa. DeadBand: The Dead Band or neutral zone, is the number of degrees counts
around Setpoint 1 (or Setpoint 2 if On/Off 2) which the temperature value must pass above or below the Setpoint before the output changes state.
Action: Choice of direct or reverse. The error that results from the measurement of the Process Variable may be positive or negative since it may be greater or smaller than the Setpoint.
If a positive error should cause the wiDR output to increase (i.e. cooling), it would be called Direct Acting.
If a negative error should cause the output to increase (i.e. heating), it would be called Reverse Acting.

Alarm 1 (or 2) Relay: to enable or disable (no alarm function) the alarms . Alarm 1 (or 2) Low: editable box for the low alarm value. Alarm 1 (or 2) High: editable box for the high alarm value.
Active: If Above, Alarm condition triggered when the process variable is greater
than the Alarm Hi Value (Low value ignored).
If Below, Alarm condition triggered when the process variable is less than the
Alarm Low Value (Hi value ignored).
If Hi/Low, Alarm condition triggered when the process variable is less than the
Alarm Low Value or above the Hi Value.
If Band, Alarm condition triggered when the process variable is above or below
the "band" set around the Setpoint. Band equals Hi Value (Low Value ignored).
A "band" is set around the Setpoint only in the "Deviation" Mode.
Normally: if Open, then the relay is "energized" only when an alarm condition
occurs.
If Closed, this is "Fail Safe" Mode. Relay is energized under "normal" conditions
and becomes de-energized during alarm or power failure.
Latch: if Latched, Alarm remains "latched" until reset. If Unlatched, Alarm remains latched only as long as the alarm condition is true. Absolute: if Absolute, this allows Alarms to function independently from their
respective Setpoints. If the process being monitored does not change often, then "Absolute" Mode is recommended.
If Deviation, this allows changes to Setpoints to be made automatically to their
corresponding Alarms. Deviation Mode is typically the ideal mode if the process temperature changes often. In Deviation Mode, set Alarm 1 a certain number of degrees or counts away from Setpoints, this relation remains fixed even if Setpoints are changed.
Alarm at Power On: If the alarm is enabled at Power On, the alarm will be
active right after reset for all the End Devices (given the conditions are met), except the End Device designated in the “Input” menu of the Web Server.
If the alarm is disabled at Power On, the alarm will become enabled when the
process value enters the non alarm area. The alarm is not active while the process value is approaching the Setpoints.
Errors indicating “lost” or “open” sensor condition can trigger the alarm if the alarm is set for “active high” above 9000 degrees.

“Chart” and “Reading” pages.
B) Terminal Server
TCP/UDP*: The wiDR supports TCP and UDP protocols (default is TCP). If UDP
is selected, it can be configured either for Broadcast UDP or Directed UDP. In case of Broadcast UDP, the wiDR will transmit the data to every node on the network. This can be accomplished if the Remote IP Address is set to 255.255.255.255. The Broadcast UDP is a practical solution when one wiDR needs to communicate with multiple nodes over the network. In the case of directed UDP, the wiDR will transmit the data to a specific node on the network. This can be accomplished if the Remote IP Address is set to the IP address of that specific node.
Server Type: Continuous mode sends the temperature to the Ethernet, every two seconds. It is mainly used to send readings to a remote display. Command
mode (default) needs a command to query the wiDR to send the response back to querying device.
Forward CR: Forward CR can be enabled and disabled. If enabled the wiDR
will forward a <CR> along with the data to a network host in Command mode.
Number of Connections: The range is from 0 to 5. If 0 is selected, the Terminal
Server feature is disabled. This means that no network connection can be made to the wiDR. If 1 is selected, only one network connection can be made to the wiDR. Any number more than 1 would allow that number of network hosts to
read from the wiDR simultaneously (default is 5).
Port: Port number for TCP connections. Invalid ports: <500, >65536, 1000, 2002, 2003, and 7011.
C) Remote Access Remote IP Address: The wiDR can establish a connection to a remote device
(e.g. an iLD Remote Display with an Ethernet embedded board) with this IP.
Remote Port: (default 2000) the remote port number for the connection. Ports 1000 (used for HTTPget, refer to Section 4.5), 2002, 2003, and 7011 are
reserved for internal use. Remote Access: ** Remote Access can be enabled and disabled. If enabled,
the wiDR can send its data to a remote node on the same network (the “Remote IP address” and “Remote Port” must be entered).
* TCP/UDP: when UDP mode and Continuous are selected, Remote Access should be disabled and Remote IP and Port are the UDP remote listening IP and Port. If the Remote IP is set to 255.255.255.255, the UDP packet becomes a broadcasting packet which will allow any device listening to the Remote port to receive the packet.
** If Remote Access is enabled, Terminal Server is automatically disabled.

Update rate is closely related to the lifetime of the battery.
Since the End Device is in low power consumption (sleep mode) when idle, a longer update rate will cause less energy usage and prolong the life of the battery.
On the other hand, a faster update rate shortens the battery life and results in a busy network, which will increase the chance of signal interference.
As a general rule of thumb, minimum update rate should be proportional to the number of sensors in the network.
Figure 4.23 End Device Parameters
Device Name: Name of this End Device, this is a text field and can take up to
16 alphanumeric characters. Update (Seconds): How often this sensor is sending its data to the wiDR.
A faster update period consumes more energy and creates more traffic. The update time must be selected to satisfy acceptable network performance and desired battery lifetime.
Operation: Choice of Normal or Identify. The LED of the End Device will blink (according to the update rate) in Normal condition (default). To identify an End Device in the field you may want to set the LED to be “ON”, this is the Identify setting.

This is the field to modify the parameters for the primary sensor.
Remote Display Format: Remote display format is for Server Type continuous
mode. It basically defines the way the data is shown on a Remote Display. The default value is 00000000. This means that the value will be displayed up to 8 digits, followed by the Temperature Unit set in the wiDR. Any letters before and/or after the number will be displayed accordingly. Keep in mind that the displayed letters will take away from the available 8 characters.
Make sure that you have enough 0’s to display the entire reading. Any extra 0’s will be ignored.
If there is no unit, then the unit will be read from the “Input” menu of the Controller Setup.
Remote End Char: The default value is 0D (Hex representation of <CR>). This means that the wiDR sends <CR> after each reading. This will be done either in
Continuous or Command mode.
This is how the data will appear on the host with 0D assigned:
T75F T74F
If the end character for instance is 20 (Hex representation of space), the data will then appear as: T75F T74F
If nothing is set for the “Remote End Char” field, the wiDR will then forward the data to the LAN with no characters followed.
Offset: If it’s determined that the readings are slightly off, the user can manually assign numerical values to adjust the readings for temperature. The unit must be in degree C.
Display: Not used for the wiDR. This is for the 1/8 DIN panel meter-controller verison of the wiSeries to enable or disable the numerical display on the Meter’s Front Panel. By default, the box is checked (enabled).

4.3.10 Access Control
This section describes the "Access Control" page of the Wireless System Web interface. This page allows the users to set up the network and security parameters of the Wireless System.
At the initial entrance to the “Access Control” page you may be prompted for the LOGIN Password (see Figure 4.6) prior to an ADMINISTRATOR Password.
Figure 4.25 Access Control
51
4.3.10 Access Control (continued)
Login Password: This allows users to access and modify all of the Wireless
System Home Page menu items, except “Access Control”, which requires an Administrator password. The default Login password is 12345678. This password can be up to 16 alpha-numeric case-sensitive characters.
If there is no Login Password assigned (blank box) the Wireless System will not require a password to access and modify any of the menu items, except the “Access Control” page.
Admin (administrator) Password: This allows users to access and modify the "Access Control" page. The default password is 00000000. This password can be up to 16 alpha-numeric case-sensitive characters.
If there is no Administrator Password assigned (blank box) the Wireless System will not require password to access and modify "Access Control" page.
Host Name: Name of the server (DNS) max 16 characters, default is “wis” and the last 4 digits of the MAC address. Refer to Section 3.4, DNS.
MAC Address: This is also called Hardware address or Ethernet address, which is assigned to the wiDR at production. The MAC (Media Access Control) address is the wiDR’s unique hardware number and is not changeable.
IP Address: The IP (Internet Protocol) address is a 32-bit number that identifies each sender or wiDR of information that is sent in packets across the Ethernet or the Internet. The wiDR’s default IP address is 192.168.1.200. The wiDR’s IP address should be changed to fit user’s networking environment. Consult with your IT department for obtaining an IP address.
The DHCP will be enabled in the wiDR if its IP address is set to 0.0.0.0. The DHCP can also be enabled by setting the 4 position DIP switch #3 to ON.
Gateway Address: A gateway is a network point that acts as an entrance to another network. A gateway is often associated with a router, which knows where to direct a given packet of data that arrives at the gateway. If the wiDR is sending packets to another network node that is not on the same network on which the wiDR is connected, a gateway address needs to be given to the wiDR. The gateway address should be the IP address of the router connected to the same LAN to which the wiDR is connected. The wiDR default gateway address is 0.0.0.0. Consult with your IT department for obtaining a gateway address.
Subnet Mask: It’s a 32-bit number that is used to determine which part of the IP address is the network portion and which part is the host portion. The wiDR default subnet mask is 255.255.255.0. Consult with your IT department for obtaining a subnet mask.

4.5 HTTPget Program
The Httpget software is used to send a single HTTP or TCP request to the wiDR. In contrast, the telnet or Hyperterminal programs allow a continuous connection with multiple requests to be sent to the wiDR.
Generally HTTPget is used for simply programming an IP address to the wiDR or for quickly obtaining a reading from a End Device.
The wiDR must be configured from the “Network Setup” page so that the "TCP Connections" indicates any number between 1 and 5. Make sure that the Port Field number indicates 2000.
Whenever Terminal Server service (using Port 2000 by default) is required, the # of connections must be set to a value from 1 to 5. The Terminal Server mode is the recommended mode for the most reliable connection when operating with NEWPORT software or with other programs supporting TCP/IP communications.
The Port 2000 access can be used with NEWPORT software and may be needed with some wiDRs when you need to view readings from the web page while simultaneously collecting data through TCP/IP communications.
4.5.1 HTTPget using Port 2000
You can setup and read the information from the wiDR by using the HTTPget program. The following program can be used to read data from the embedded server firmware by using TCP port 2000. The command string is sent to this TCP port, then the response can be read back from the same socket.
The HTTPget.exe file is used to setup and read information from the wiDR. This file will be automatically installed when you install the MailNotifier software available on our website and CD.
Notes on using HTTPget : The Httpget.exe program is installed to the windows directory (usually c:\winnt or
c:\windows) when installing the Mail Notifier software.
1). Open up a command window (or have a DOS window) a) Click on start menu b) Click on "Run" c) In the dialog box that appears, type "cmd" or "command" and click on
"OK" button.
d) A command window should now appear.
2). If you now type "httpget" and press the "enter", the program options should be displayed.

4.5.2 HTTPget and ARP to Setup Device IP Address
Use the iConnect software, which may be downloaded from our website, to do these IP changes whenever possible.
Use ARP first to assign the mac address to a static IP address in computer arp table by this command:
arp –s 192.168.1.200 00-03-34-00-06-b6
Then use the following command to assign new IP to the device:
Httpget –r –S "00000000" 192.168.1.200:1 where:
“0000000” is admin. password. If the password is wrong, the unit will ignore the new IP. If the new IP is taken, you will get the message " New IP is Assigned" after the HTTPget command. The device will reset automatically.
192.168.1.200” is an example of an IP address. It is replaced with IP address suitable for your network
“00-03-34-00-06-b6” is replaced with your wiDR’s MAC address.

Part 5 ENVIRONMENT / OPERATING CONDITIONS
The End Device and wiDR monitor-controller are designed to be fixed mounted and operated in a clean and dry environment. Care should be taken to prevent the components of your wireless system from being exposed to moisture, toxic chemicals, extreme cold or hot temperature that are outside the specification listed in this manual.
The following is a list of basic good practice you should apply when operating this Wireless System.
1. Do not operate the wireless wiDR in flammable or explosive environments.
2. Do not use the wireless wiDR in medical, nuclear or other critical application where failure can cause damage or harm.
3. Always operate the wireless wiDR within the recommended environmental limits specified in the manual.
4. Do not operate the wireless wiDR with a battery or AC adapter other than what’s supplied or specified in this manual or on the battery compartment label.
5. Keep each wireless wiDR at least 8 inches (20 cm) from other radio transmitters, antennas, and people.
6. The FCC approval for this wiDR specifies the specific antenna supplied with this wiDR.
5.1 General Deployment Guidelines
1. Position wiDR in a central location. When multiple End Devices are in operation, position your wiDR in a central space if possible in equal distance to each End Device.
2. Test your system before permanent mounting. Try to move the devices to different location around and mounting angles to determine what installation achieves the best signal strength before permanently mounting the End Device.
3. Move your system components higher off the floor and away from exterior walls. The closer the End Device and wiDR are, the greater the interference and lose of signal strength will be.
4. Maintain a line-of-sight between antennas and keep Fresnel zone free of obstruction. See Figure 5.2.
5. Maintain a constant ambient temperature environment. Exposing your system components to extreme cold or hot temperatures, or sudden changes in ambient conditions will have an effect on the performance of your system.
6. As a general rule in buildings, head height or above is preferred. On the other hand, an End Device which stays close to the floor may have its range reduced by 50% to 90%.
7. Where possible, try to ensure an uninterrupted line-of-sight between nodes. Avoid obscuring objects (e.g. metal pillars, posts, sign) near the antenna. A close object obscures a wider range of solid angle.
8. It is important to understand that the environment may change over time due to new equipment or machinery being installed, building construction, etc. If new obstacles exist between the End Device and wiDR, antenna angle may need to be re-adjusted and/or the unit has to be relocated.

9. An IEEE 802.15.4 wireless network will not work under water. Wet condition (e.g. in heavy rainfall) may exhibit some degradation. In most cases, water droplets on or close to the antenna are more serious than the rain itself. Humidity can affect radio performance as well.
10. Reduced performance scenario:
a. A large building may have few obstructions between nodes but large
amount of metallic paneling that cause reflections.
b. A small domestic installation may have numerous brick walls between
nodes in individual rooms.
c. An office building may have metalized dry-wall partitions together with
mezzanine ceilings.
Data is sent through radio signal at 2.4 GHz. Radio signals are electromagnetic waves, hence the signal becomes weaker the further it travels.
While radio waves can penetrate some solid materials like a wall, they can diminish more than when a direct line-of-sight between the transmitting and receiving antenna exist.
Therefore, it is generally a good idea to place wiDR at the center while End Devices are located about the same distance away from it. If possible, keeping clearance around the line of site will improve performance as well.
Figure 5.1 Operation in Buildings
65
5.2 With Line-of-Sight
or
When installing the wiDR it is important to position your device in such a way to optimize the antenna location within what’s known as the “Fresnel Zone”. The Fresnel Zone can be thought of as a football-shaped invisible tunnel between two locations that provides a path for RF signals between the End Device and the wiDR.
Figure 5.2 Fresnel Zone
In order to achieve maximum range, the football-shaped path in which radio waves travel must be free of obstructions. Obstacles in the path (especially metal) will decrease the communication range between the End Device and wiDR.
Also, if the antennas are mounted just barely off the ground or below the ceiling, over half of the Fresnel zone ends up being obstructed resulting in significant reduction in range.
Below is the calculated radius of the football-shaped tunnel for different distance range:
Distance (feet) Radius (feet)
100 3.2 200 4.5 300 5.5
It is recommended that within the tunnel of the above radius, at least 60% of
space is free of obstruction.
Since signal reaches destination directly in a line-of-sight situation, it is important
to adjust the antenna properly to achieve maximum performance. Antenna for the wiDR and End Device should be perpendicular to the plane where the wiDR and End Device is located.
66
5.3 Without Line-of-Sight
When line-of-sight is not possible, signal penetrates and is reflected by different objects to reach the destination. Therefore, it is important to learn about how these materials would affect signal propagation. Depending on the thickness, moisture content and angle of incidence, a wall may allow between 1% and 25% of the radio power to pass through. Metal panel or metalized glass window will not allow much radio power to pass through. Signal will be reflected if the panel is a mirror. Some radio power may propagate through small holes in the panel or around metal edges through the process of diffraction.
Material Type Possible Signal
Reduction
Wood, Plaster, Sheetrock, Fiberglass Uncoated Glass w/out Metal 0 to 10%
Brick, Pressboard 5 to 35% Reinforced Concrete 10 to 90% Metal Walls, Metal Doors, Elevators, Metal Piping,
Metal Stair Cases, Metal Mesh, Metal Screening 90 to 100%
Figure 5.3 Materials in Buildings
In a non-line-of-sight situation at 2.45 GHz, it is possible to move the receive antenna only 1 to 1 1/2” (3 to 4 cm) and see signal strength varies from 6 dB to -20 dB due to multiple signal reflection path. Therefore, there should be about 20 dB path loss margin to take signal fading into account.

1. To avoid interference from WiFi / IEEE 802.11, one could consult the figure below
to choose the best channel through the Configuration webpage. In all, channels 15, 20, 25 and 26 are not overlapping with any WiFi / IEEE 802.11 bands in the United States while channels 15, 16, 21 and 22 can be used in Europe.
Figure 5.4 Channels
2. It is possible that IEEE 802.15.4 devices experience interference from Wi-Fi / IEEE 802.11 and Bluetooth devices and certain microwave ovens. Therefore, it is worth locating nodes as far as possible to minimize effect. Note that international radio regulations which govern radio equipment ensure that cell phones use their allocated band only. It is highly unlikely that cell phones will interfere with IEEE
802.15.4 equipment.
3. In some cases, a short RF cable may be used to connect an antenna to your device. Please note that RF extension cables will always add some loss to the transmitting signal strength. The longer the cable the more signal will be lost over that cable. Therefore, the length of the cable should be kept as short as possible. Also, note that use of any other antenna other then what’s shipped with your device will void FCC and CE regulatory complicance.
4. To achieve satisfactory IEEE 802.15.4 performance in the presence of WLAN interference, a channel center-frequency offset of 7 MHz is recommended.
5. For co-channel operation, a physical separation from the WLAN Access Point (AP) of 26.2’ (8 m) is recommended to achieve a Packet Error Rate (PER) of 1%. For a particularly saturated WLAN link, 29.5’ to 32.8’ (9 to 10 m) may be necessary.
6. To achieve satisfactory IEEE 802.15.4 performance in the presence of Bluetooth interference, a separation distance of 6.5’ (2 m) is recommended.

APPENDIX A GLOSSARY
User of this manual should be familiar with following definitions: ARP (Address Resolution Protocol) is a protocol for mapping an Internet Protocol
address (IP address) to a physical machine address that is recognized in the local network. For example, the IP address in use today is an address that is 32-bits long. In an Ethernet local area network, however, addresses for attached devices are 48-bits long. (The physical machine address is also known as a Media Access Control or MAC address.) A table, usually called the ARP cache, is used to maintain a correlation between each MAC address and its corresponding IP address. ARP provides the protocol rules for making this correlation and providing address conversion in both directions.
Ethernet is a network protocol defined by the IEEE 802.3 standard. Ethernet-based networks use MAC Address rather then IP Address to exchange data between computers. By using ARP and adding TCP/IP support, Ethernet devices may be connected as part of the Internet. An Ethernet LAN typically uses coaxial cable or special grades of twisted pair wires. The most commonly installed Ethernet systems are called 10BASE-T and provide transmission speeds up to 10 Mbps. Devices are connected to the cable and compete for access using a Carrier Sense Multiple Access with Collision Detection (CSMA/CD) protocol.
IP (Internet Protocol) is the method or protocol by which data is sent from one computer to another on the Internet.
IP address (Internet Protocol address) is a 32-bit number that identifies each sender or receiver of information that is sent in packets across the Internet.
IP Netmask is a 32-bit pattern of bits used to determine which part of the IP address is the network portion and which part is the host portion.
MAC (Media Access Control) Address is your computer's unique hardware number. When you're connected to the Internet from your computer, a correspondence table relates your IP address to your computer's physical (MAC) address on the LAN.
Ping is a utility that tests the network connectivity. It is used to determine if the host is capable of exchanging information with another host.
Port number/Socket number is a way to identify a specific process to which an Internet or other network message is to be forwarded when it arrives at a server. It is a predefined address that serves as a route from the application to the Transport layer or from the Transport layer to the application of the TCP/IP system.
Sockets are a method for communication between a client program and a server program in a network and defined as "the endpoint in a connection." Information transferred across the Internet primarily occurs between sockets.
TCP/IP (Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol) is the basic communication language or protocol of the Internet. When you are set up with direct access to the Internet, your computer is provided with a copy of the TCP/IP program just as every other computer that you may send messages to or get information from also has a copy of TCP/IP. TCP/IP often is used as a general term to indicate generic access to the Internet.
UDP/IP (User Datagram Protocol/Internet Protocol) is the TCP/IP standard protocol that allows an application program on one machine to send a datagram to an application program on another. The UDP can be either in Broadcast or Directed form. The Broadcast UDP transmits data to every node on the same network. The Directed UDP transmits data to one node only.

Appendix B IP Address
An IP address is a unique 32-bit address assigned to a computer and includes:
• A network ID number identifying a network.
• A host ID number identifying a computer on the network.
All IP addresses have been divided into three smaller groups (classes) A, B and C
Class A addresses have 8-bits of network ID and 24-bits of host ID. They can support a large number of hosts, approximately 2 = 16,777,216 computers per network.
The IP addresses range in binary from 00000001.xxxxxxxx.xxxxxxxx.xxxxxxxx
to 01111111.xxxxxxxx.xxxxxxxx.xxxxxxxx
The IP addresses range in decimal from 1.x.x.x to 127.x.x.x
Class A network ID’s support a very large number of hosts.
Class B addresses have 16-bits of network ID and 16-bits of host ID. They can support approximately 216= 65,536 computers per network.
The IP addresses range in binary from 10000000 00000000.xxxxxxxx.xxxxxxxx
to 10111111 11111111.xxxxxxxx.xxxxxxxx
The IP addresses range in decimal from 128.0.x.x TO 191.255.xxx.xxx
Class B network ID’s support a medium number of hosts.
Class C addresses have 24-bits of network ID and 8-bits of host ID. They can support approximately 28= 256 computers per network.
The IP addresses range in binary from 11000000.00000000.00000000.xxxxxxxx
to 11011111.11111111.11111111.xxxxxxxx
The IP addresses range in decimal from 192.0.0.xxx to 223.255.255.xxx
Class C network ID’s support a small number of hosts.
The rest of the addresses are divided into two classes, D and E.
Class D networks are not assigned to the host. They are used for multicasting. The address range from 224.x.x.x to 239.x.x.x
Class E networks are experimental or reserved addresses. The address range from 240.x.x.x to 247.x.x.x
77
Appendix C IP Netmask
IP Netmask or Subnet Mask is a 32-bit pattern of ones and zeros used to determine network portion of an IP address from the host portion of the IP address. Subnet mask is a network ID that is created by borrowing bits from host portion of IP address and using them as part of a network ID. The table below shows a default subnet mask for address Classes A, B, and C. Each bit that is set to "1" in the subnet mask corresponds to the bit in the IP address that is to be used as the network ID. Each bit that is set to "0" in the subnet mask corresponds to a bit in the IP address that is to be used as the host ID.
Address Class Mask Binary Value Mask Decimal Value
or Dotted Notation
Class A 255.0.0.0 Class B 255.255.0.0 Class C 255.255.255.0
11111111 11111111 11111111

00000000 00000000 11111111
00000000 00000000 00000000
If your network requires more network ID’s, you can extend the default subnet mask to include additional bits from the host ID. This allows for additional network ID’s within the network. The table below shows some examples of subnet masks and bits moved from the hosts ID to create a new subnet.

Appendix F Warnings and Regulatory Information
In order to comply with FCC radio frequencies (RF) exposure limits, dipole antennas should be located at a minimum 7.9 “ (200mm) or more from the body of all persons.
This device complies with part 15 rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions:
1) this device may not cause harmful interference, and
2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits of a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference when the equipment is operated in a residential environment. This equipment generates, uses, and radiates radio frequency energy, and if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur. If this equipment does cause interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to correct the interference by one of the following measures:
• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
• Increase separation between the equipment and receiver.
• Connect the equipment to an outlet on a circuit different from which the receiver is connected.
• Consult dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician.

Appendix F Warnings and Regulatory Information (continued)
The following alert sign indicates that there are restrictions on usage of the equipment in regards to power limitations on Equivalent Isotropic Radiated Power (EIRP) levels in the European Community.
The following are user restrictions:
• Wideband Data Transmission Systems on the band 2400 – 2483.5 MHz in Europe is limited to a Maximum of 10 mW (10 dBm) for Direct Sequence Spread Spectrum (DSSS). See Annex 3 of ERC/REC 70-03, decision ERC/DEC/ (01)07.
• Combinations of power levels and antennas resulting in a radiated power level above 10 mW - EIRP for Direct Sequence Spectrum (DSSS) devices are considered as not compliant, and are not allowed for use within the European Community and other countries that have adopted the European R&TTE directive 1995/5/EC or the CEPT recommendation ERC/REC 70-03 or both.
• The users in Europe are instructed to change the default 20 dBm level to 10 dBm via the Web Interface of the wiDR/Receiver. The End Devices will follow the power level set on the wiDR/Receiver upon power-up; failure to change the default U.S.A. power level setting (20 dBm) will violate the regulations requirements for Europe.
MAXIMUM POWER LEVELS AND ANTENNA GAINS
Antenna Gain Output Max Maximum Radiated
U.S.A (Regulatory 4W) 2.2 dBi 18.0 dBm 20 dBm EUROPE (Regulatory 10mW) 2.2 dBi 7.0 - 7.5 dBm 10 dBm
(DSSS)
The default 20 dBm must be changed to 10 dBm to comply with power level regulations. The 0.5 dBm variation depends on the internal DC power used (3V,
3.3V, 3.7V max) of the different models.
