We recommend that this function be used for applications that are not required to operate in real tim e (such as di splays for indicators and manufac­turing instruction data transmissions).
Errors can be monitored DeviceNet sl ave error information (i ncluding e rrors in wir eless slave stations)
can be assigned to two or four status words and monitored from the PLC.

Maximum number of I/O per wireless master station increased
Magnet-base antenna added to lineup
Since the wireless region is divided into 34 frequencies from 2,400 to 2,483.5MHz, you can sele ct an unused frequency for building multiple sys­tems.
Using a spectral spread me thod (DS: direc t spread) as a mo dulation method achieves high-quality communications even in areas of excess noise.
Although communications distances vary according to the installation environ­ment, the goal indoors is 60m in line of sight.
The relay functions allow an increase in the communicati ons area (to a maxi­mum of 3 stages).
DeviceNet slaves may also be connected to the relay station. However, relay station system settings can only be performed from the config-
urator.
antennas). The effects of this function are observed when used in areas where variations
in radio waves (such as reflections) occur. Depending on the switch settings of the wireless master station, the maximum
number of I/O per wireless master station can be increased to 100 words/ 100 words (IN/OUT). The maximum number of wireless slave stations that can be connected has increased to 64.
Using the magnet-base antenna, the station itself can be installed inside a control panel with the antenna ins talled outside. Al so, because it is mounte d with a magnet, the p osition of the antenna can be adjusted e asily when, for example, the control panel is moved. Attenuation in the ante nna cable (2m), however, limits the maximum communic ations di stanc e to appr oximately 50m indoors.

1-2 Basic Functions of the DeviceNet Wireless Unit

1-2-1 Replacing data
Initializing the wireless master station
When the power supply is tur ned on, the wirele ss master station add s each registered wireless slave station. When wireless communicati on begins with an slave station, if the number of I/O points on the DeviceNet slave connected to the slave station and the I/O points registered for the wireless m aster sta­tion are identical, it is added. If they are not identical, an I/O configuration error will occur.

If the number of I/O points on the wireless master station and the wireless slave station is different, an I/O configuration error will occur.
Even if an error occ urs in the DeviceNet network b elow a wirele ss slave sta­tion after initialization is complete, the wireless network polling communication will continue as normal. The user should monitor the status at his device (PLC, computer) when an error occur s, and apply the appropria te error pro­cessing program for the type of error and the area in which it occurred.

Each of the following for the DeviceNet mas ter st a tus of added wireless s lave stations is set to an OR value.
Incorrect switch setting/EEPROM error (bit address 00) Repetitive node address/Busoff detection (bit address 01) Configuration error (bit address 03) Structural error (bit address 04) Send error (bit address 05) Communication error (bit address 06) Verify error (bit address 07)
Also, if a wireless slave station has been registe red but not added, the bit wi ll be 1. For example, if a wireless slave station error oc curs for WNODE = 16, the uppermost bit for "status begin word +0" (16) becomes 1.
Each wireless master station can control a maximum of 512 (or 1,600) I/O points. However, there are limits to the number of I/O points per node for each master unit. Therefore, systems should be designed without exceeding the limitations for the number of I/O points per node for each master unit.

1-2-5 Disconnect/Connect Switch
The Disconnect/Connect Switch function that was introduced with CS/CJ­series DeviceNet master uni ts c an b e us ed for wireless sl ave stations. A bit is allocated to each wirel es s sl ave station’s WNODE, and if this bit is turned ON (1), wireless I/O com municat ions and mess age communi cati ons with t he cor ­responding wirele ss slave station will stop (i.e., the wireless slave station is disconnected from the network). This function is mainly used to reserve space for wireless slave stations to be added in the future (i.e., I/O point s have been registered in the wireless master station but no wireless slave station has been connected yet).
Wireless slave stations tha t have been disc onnected from the net work do no t need to be considere d when calculating the wireless communic ations cycle time.
In the DeviceNet master unit’s I/O area, 0 is set in the IN area allocated to wireless slave stations that have been set to leave the network.

Basic Functions of the DeviceNet Wireless Unit Section 1-2
1-2-6 DeviceNet node addresses
DeviceNet node addresses (NNODEs) are included in wireless master sta­tions. The master unit controls the assignment of DeviceNet slave I/O data registered with wirele ss slave stations to areas corresp onding to these node addresses.
Wireless node add resses (WNODEs) are included in wir eless slave stations. These node addresses are used for control by wireless master stations. Therefore, there is no purpose in assigning the wireless slave station DeviceNet node addresses (NNODEs) to I/O. Normally, a 7 segment LED is used to display the DeviceNet node address on wireless slave stations.
Since DeviceNet node addresses are controlled by wireless slave stations, be sure to set the DeviceNet slaves so that there is no redundancy.

1-2-7 DeviceNet wireless unit default setting values
Wireless unit network default settings are on a 1:1:2 structure of wireless master station: wireless slave station: DeviceNet slave with IN/OUT = 16 points/16 points, as shown in the figure below.
Wireless master station I/O points: IN 1 word (16 points) OUT 1 word (16 points) Registered wireless slave station: 1 node
Wireless slave station WNODE=01 IN/OUT=1 word (16 points) 1 word (16 points)
DeviceNet slave NNODE=01 IN/OUT= (16 points/0 point)
The default settings ca n be retur ned to on b oth wireles s master sta tions and slave stations using the DIP switches in SET mode. Refer to 2-4 System Initial Setting and Starting Communications for detailed setting information.
1-2-8 Serial Number Check
With the release of the WD30-ME wi th Identity Ob ject Revision value 3.02, it has become possible to register the serial number (the wireless slave station’s own unique ID) of wireless slave stations to non-volatil e memory in th e wire­less master station.
If a wireless slave station is registered to a wireless master station using switch operations at the wire less master sta tion, or if seri al number check is enabled for the wireless slave station by editing the device parameters using the configurator, and the seria l number is wr itten, the wi reless sl ave station’s serial number is re gistered to the wireles s master s tation’s non-volatile mem­ory.
This function is for preventing incorrect WNODE settings for wireless slave stations, and communications errors resulting from the effects of intermodula­tion.
If serial number check is enabled for all the wireless sl ave stations registered to a wireless master station, the dot on the right-hand side of the wireless master station’s 7-segment LED lights.

1-4 Application Limitations

The wireless unit is not des igned to b e com patible with every type of appl ica­tion that uses DeviceNet. Do not use the unit with the following applications.
1,2,3... 1. Applications that require real-time control
Do not use the unit with applications th at r e qui re r eal -tim e c on tr ol. In par ­ticular, it cannot be used under conditions that require responsiveness greater than that outlined in "Section 9 Communications Timing".
Applications that do not require real-time control, such as indicators, equip­ment error monitors, and parts picking operation, are recommended.
2. Applications that use FINS message communications Wireless units do not support FINS message com munic ati on s. For exam-
ple, although CX-Programmer Ver. 2.1 and later versions suppor t online connection (i.e., remote programming and monitoring) to PLCs on De­viceNet networks (e.g., PLCs with CS/CJ-series DeviceNet Units or pro­grammable slaves), this functionality is not available via wireless units.

1-5 Points for Consideration with Wireless Systems

1-5-1 Construction of mul t iple wireless systems
When construc ting a system for using multiple wi reless master stations, th e following points must be considered. Consult your OMRON representative.
16
Page 29
Points for Consideration with Wireless Systems Section 1-5
Setting wireless channels It is necessar y to select frequencies for the wireless channels that are not
interfered with by radio waves. (Radio inter ference can be handled by retr y processes between the wireless networks, but will lengthen the system response time.)
With this unit, 34 wireless channels can be selected from. Taking the following points into consideration, however, the maximum number of wireless systems usable in a single area without radio interference is, as a rough guide, 10.
1. It is possible that, for example, there is a wireless LAN on site that uses the same frequency as this unit. Select an unused wireless channel using the Configurator’s wireless channel monitor function.
2. Do not select neighboring wireless channels as they have a large amount of interference.
3. Due to the fundamental nature of radio waves, if 2 or more waves with dif­ferent frequencies are output at exactly the same time, mutual interference will occur between the different frequencies, and new waves will be gener­ated with frequencies at intervals equal to the intervals between the output frequencies. (This phenomenon is called “intermodulation.”)

Radio wave created by intermodulation
Do not select the frequencies of waves created by intermodulation.
Antenna separation distance
The distance be tween wireless unit s has a large influ ence on the amou nt of interference received. In par ticular, there may often be cases where wireless master stations are installed relatively closely to each other. Separate the antennas for different wireless master st ations by at least 1 m (at least 2 m, if possible).
Test c onfirmation Perform a test to see whether or not the wireless units are rece iving interfer-
ence. Using the Configurator’s running test function, obtain the packet error rate, and, based on this, determine whether or not the communications quality is sufficient for the appl ication. (As a r ough guide, the packet rate should b e less than 0.01.)
Intermodulation
Due to the fundamental nature of radio waves, if 2 or more waves with different frequencies are output at exactly the same time, mutual interference will occur between the diff erent frequencies, and new waves will be generated with f requencies at intervals equal to t he intervals betw een the output frequencies.
17
Page 30
Points for Consideration with Wireless Systems Section 1-5
!Caution Communications errors caused by intermodulation
Communications errors and retry proces sing may occur due to inter modula­tion and consequently cause transmission delays. In order to eliminate the influence of intermodulation, do not set the wireless channels for wireless units in every system to frequencies at regular intervals.
Before starting ope ration o f th e wi r ele ss sy ste m u sing a W D30-ME with Iden­tity Object Revision value 3.02, eithe r register wireless slave stations to the wireless master station using switch operations at the wireless master station, or enable serial number check for the wireless slave stations using the config­urator, and then register the seri al numbers of the wireless slave stations to the wireless master station by writing the serial numbers.

2-2 Pre-work Preparations

Items to be checked before performing installation work are explained here.
2-2-1 Determination of system configuration
A single wireless ma ster station is limited to a maximum of 1,02 4 or 3,200 points, 512 (32 words) or 1,600 (100 words) points each for both IN and OUT.
In addition, the maximum configu ration in a wireless network of master sta­tions to slave stations is 1 to 32 or 1 to 6 4, and the maximum numbe r of IN/ OUT points for the entire s ystem is limited by the DeviceNet mast er un it. Th is should be considered carefully when determining system configuration.
System configuration example
DeviceNet master unit Model CS1W-DRM21 (NNODE=10)
Wireless network
Wireless slave station (WNODE=01) (NNODE=00)
DeviceNet slaves Model DRT1-ID08C (NNODE=01)
DeviceNet slaves Model DRT1-MD16C (NNODE=03)
In this section, the operation procedu re is explained using the following sys­tem configuration as an example.
A communications power supply (Model S82K) has been purposely left out

of the diagram above. It should be connected and supply power to the DeviceNet network (both upper and lower) and s hould be con nected wit h ter­minating resistor. In addition, an external power supply shou ld be conne cted to the environment-resistant terminal of the DeviceNet slave.
2-2-2 Confirmation of specifications
Confirmation of number of IN/OUT points
Master unit I/O limitations
22
Confirm that th e number of IN/O UT points for each wirel ess master station is no more than 512 or 1,600 (32 or 100 words).
In the example, the number of IN points is 8 points is 8
A single wireless master station can control up to 512 points (or 1,600 points) for both input and output, but the number of I/O points per node is limited by the master unit. Be careful not to exceed the limit for I/O points per master unit node when constructing your system.

Confirmation of wiring A special communications cable is required to connect to the DeviceNet
micro-connector on the wireless unit. In addition, if multiple DeviceNet slaves are connected, branch taps should be
used as necessar y. Terminators for the wireless slave station DeviceNet net­work should also be prepared. Refer to the "DeviceNet User’s Manual" for details.
Confirmation of communications power supply
Since power is supplied to the wireles s unit from an extern al communic ations power supply, a communications power connection must be made.
Taking the maximum current at startup into consideration, use a power supply of at least 350mA. If using an OMRON S82K or S82 J switching power supply, use a model with a capacity of at least 30W (S82K) or 25W (S82J).

2-5 Operation Confirmation

The confirmation procedure for whether or not remote I/O communications are performed correctly is explained in this section.
2-5-1 Unit LED confirmation
If the MS and NS LEDs on all DeviceNet s laves (environment-resista nt ter m i­nals) light green, the node address is shown on the DeviceNet master (C200HW-DRM21-V1) LED disp lay (the decim al dis play disappea rs), and th e MS and NS LEDs light green, wireless remot e I/O communications ar e oper­ating correctly in scan list enable mode.
2-5-2 Status confirmation
If the STAT US se ttin g is mad e, status infor m atio n is auto mat ic al ly assig ned to the 2 words at the top of the IN area. (The position is fixed.)
The IN/OUT data for DeviceNet slaves (environment-resistant terminals) is first assigned to the IN a re as and O UT areas by the w irel ess s lave stations in ascending order of WNO DE and i s then assi gned by the wirel ess ma ster sta­tions in ascending order of NNODE (1 to 4 in this example).
The IN and OUT areas are a llocated in units of 1 6 points (1 word). Because the slaves are 8-point units, the lower bytes (b its 0 to 7) are a ll oc ated an d th e upper bytes (bits 8 to 15) are set to 00 Hex.
Replacing wireless slave stations
When a wireless slave station has been replaced, with reference to 2-4-2 DeviceNet slave ent ry, register the new wireless slave station to the wireless master station using switch operations at the wireless master station, or, with ref erence to SECTION 8 Using the Configurator, update the serial number for the wireless slave station held at the wireless master station by writing the serial number. If the DeviceNet wireless slave station is not registered, or the serial number is not written, because the wireless master station will use the previous wireless slave station’s serial number, communications will not be possible with the new wireless slave station.

2-6-1 De viceNet wireless slave station deletion
Wireless slave stations you want to remove from the system can be deleted. When creating a sy stem that d oes not us e a WNODE = 1 wirel ess slave sta­tion, the WNODE = 1 slave station (registered as the default before being shipped from the factor y) should be deleted before performing the entr y pro­cedure.

2-7 Deciding the Antenna Installation Position

This unit uses radio waves of frequency 2.4 GH z, which is ver y high. High-fre­quency waves exhibit strong rectili near propagation a nd are reflected easi ly. For this reason, careful consideration of the antenna installation position is required to achieve sufficient wireless performance.
1. If possible, install antennas so that there is a dir ect line of sight between them.
High-frequency waves, which exhibit strong rectilinear propagation, are used and so it is difficult for the waves to reach areas that are not in a direct line of sight, as shown in the following diagram. This is a particularly impor­tant point for communications at long distances (e.g., exceeding 50m or 60m.)
Area not in a direct line of

Obstacle
sight from the antenna
Antenna that is difficult for the waves to reach
Antenna that waves will reach
If the antennas are installed in lo ca tions with relatively high ceilings and a lot of open space, even if there is no direct line of sight between the anten­nas, if one of the antenna s is installed in a hi gh lo cat ion , c ommun ic ations may still be possible via radio waves that are reflected off the ceiling.
2. Install in as high a location as possible. As mentioned in the pr ecedin g pa ragraph, if the an tennas ar e inst alled i n
high locations, because the sp ac e s urr oun din g th e a ntennas will be more open, there will be less inf lue nce fr om o bs tac les, and the radio waves will

Deciding the Antenna Installation Position Section 2-7
propagate more easily.
High antenna
Radio wave energy
Obstacle
3. Do not place obstacles (especially metal objects) near the antennas. If there are obstacles ne ar the antennas (in par ticular, in the direction of
radio wave propagation), the radio waves may not be propagated d ue to the influence o f the objects. Metal obj ects have the largest influence as they reflect radio waves, whereas glass and plastic objects allow the waves to pass through and so h ave the smallest i nfluence. Ensure a distanc e of at least 30cm between obstacles and antennas.
4. Cable loss in magnet-base antennas With magnet-base antennas (WD30-ME01/-SE01), there is loss in the 2m
antenna cable. This means that the maximum communications distance is shorte r than with the pencil antennas. As a rough guide, the maximum communications distance is approximately 50m indoors.
5. Cable bending radius for magnet-base antennas The minimum bending radius for magnet-base antennas (WD30-ME01/
-SE01) is 38mm. Also, do not bend the cable at points less than 40mm from the end connected to the station or at points less than 20mm from the end connected to the antenna.
6. Separate different sets of antennas as much as possible. If different sets of antennas are close to each other, they will influence each
other and thereby influence wireless communications, causing an increase in the number of retr ies and a re duction in the possible c ommunications distance. Separate different sets of antennas by at least 1m (at least 2m if possible).
7. Do not install the 2 magnet-base antennas close to each other. If the 2 antennas are close to each other, the diversity effect will not be uti-
lized. Separate the antennas by at least 6 2mm (a s with pe ncil anten nas) . Magnet-mounting a llows the positions to be adjuste d easily. If possible, separate the antennas by a greater distance than this.
8. Install the antennas with the same orientation. Install antennas that are performing communications with the same orien-
tation, as shown in the following diagram. I f they are in stall ed at a n angle of 90
° to each other, the possible co mmunicatio ns dist ance wil l be sh or t-
ened. (In this case, the waves are said to be “polarized.”)
9. Separate the antennas from ID tags by at least 3m.
39
Page 52
Deciding the Antenna Installation Position Section 2-7
The OMRON V690 microwave RF-ID system uses frequencies within the range used by the wireless unit and so if they are used on the same floor, observe the following points when installing.
• Separate the antennas and ID tags by at least 3m.
• Set frequencies outside the range 12CH to 30CH.
10. Direction of waves emitted from the antennas Antennas emit waves in certain directions, and there are certain directions
in which waves are received easily. These directions are known as the “di­rectional character istics.” The directional c haracteristics for pencil ant en­nas and magnet-base antennas when they are installed vertically are donut-shaped, spreading ou twards horizontally. Radio waves are emitted in every horizontal direction but are not emitted upwards or downwards.
11. Other points about magnet-base antennas
• The magnet on the magnet-base antenna is very strong. Do not remove
the antenna by pullin g o n th e c over or ca ble. Doing s o may damage th e antenna. Be sure to hold the base when handling the antenna.
• Twist the cable as little as possible.
• Before mounting the antenna to the wireless unit, check that the plug
and jack are properl y connected and then tigh ten them by twisting the ring nut. When mounting, twist only the ring nut; do not twist the cable.
• Design the hole for passi ng the cable through so that the cable is pro-
tected.

3-1 Status Monitoring Program Example

An example of a status monitor ing program for the DeviceNet wireles s unit is given below.
In this example, the status of the DeviceNet wireless unit is che cked at the PLC CPU unit. If an error flag has occurred, an Explicit message command to read the DeviceNet master status in the lower network where the wireless slave station is connected will be issued.
In order to assign a status to the IN area, bit 3 of SW1 on the wireless master station should be turned ON beforehand.

3-2 Example of Using an Explicit Message

An example of a program that transmits an Explicit message via the DeviceNet wireless unit is given below.
In this example, an Explicit mes sage is sent to the DRT1-232C to read data received by the DRT1-232C in the system configuration shown below.
Maser unit CS1W-DRM21
The DeviceNet node address is used for both the node address and the NNODE.
Wireless master station NNODE = 02
Wireless slave station NNODE = 03
The IN area allocation for the DRT1-232C at the CS1 is shown below.

5-1 Test

• The test consists of th e Installation test, confirmation test and wireless channel monitor.
• The positioning test must be im plemented on the system that uses this unit before operation.
• Temporarily fix the unit till the test is finished, and then use screws to firmly fix the u nit. W hile th e uni t is fixed only tem porar ily, pay attention so that the unit will not fall and be damaged.
• The purpose of each test is as follows.
Test Content/Purpose Test timing Installation test Adjusts the installation position (confirmation of receiving
wave, etc.) and the setup conditions (selection of available frequencies).
Both master and slave stations require the switch
Confirmation test Checks the wireless communication status with each slave
station in a system in operation. This is a switch operation from the master station.
Wireless channel monitor Obtains the receiving wave level of the frequency band (all
channels) to allo w f or the se lect ion of the a v ail ab le cha nnels (frequency band).

5-2 Installation Test

This test is for adjusting the installation position (confirmation of receiving wave, etc.) and the setup conditions (selecti on of unused freq uencies, selec­tion of transmission output, etc.) at installation. Both master and slave stations require the switch operation.
5-2-1 Preparation
• The DeviceNet master and DeviceNet slave do not need to be connected for the installation test.
• Set the WNODE switch of the wireless master station to "00" and the WNODE switch of a wireless sl ave station to "01" to "64", avoiding dupli­cation.
• Since both the wireless master stations and wireless slave stations re­quire the transmission power supply, connect them to the power s upply via the DeviceNet cable prepared for a micro-connector.

5-3 Confirmation Test

This test is for checking the wireless com munication status with each slave station in the system in operation after installation. The test can be imple­mented by the switching operation from the master station.
5-3-1 Preparation
• The DeviceNet master does no t need to be connected for the confirma­tion test. (The DeviceNet slave needs to be connected.)
• The confirmati on test is employed for the inspection work aft er installa­tion. Thus, the system regis tration is assumed to be completed before­hand.
• Leave the mode select switches of the wireless slave stations in the "Run" position.

6-1 Relay Function

A wireless slave station can be used as a r elay statio n when expansion of th e communication are a is intended but the direct com munication is blocked by obstacles.
The relay station can select either (1) the mode that does not connect the DeviceNet slave (dedicated relay station mode) or (2) the m ode functions as both the DeviceNet master and th e re lay station by con nec ti ng the DeviceNet slave (non-dedicated mode) using DIP switches.
For details, refer to 4-2 DeviceNet Wireless Slave Station Specifications. The maximum number of relay stages is 3 (no. of hops: 4).
A configurator is us ed for the relay station system setting. W hen the wi reless slave station is used in the de di ca ted r el ay station mode, the DeviceNet slave is not connected. However, since the communication power supply is required, the communication cable needs to be connected.
Also, in the relay station system, the WCH switches of all wireless units must be set to an identical frequency.
