1 Quick-start, Commissioning
To start up the W&T Web-IO Analog-In/Out and make it visible
in your network only a few steps are necessary.
1.1.1 Connect to power
If you want to use a power supply, connect 18-48V DC or 1830V AC to the screw terminal provided. Polarity is uncritical
when connecting AC power supplies. When connecting DC power supplies please note the polarity as indicated on the screw
terminal adapter:
Subject to errors and modifications
7
W&T
To use the W&T model 11020 power supply, screw the power
supply plug into the screw terminal adapter:
1.1.2 PoE supply
The Web-IO Analog-In/Out can be used in PoE (Power-overEthernet) environments in accordance with IEEE802.3af. The
supply voltage is provided then by the network infrastructure
through the RJ45 terminal. The device supports both phantom
power using data pairs 1/2 and 3/6 as well as power on the unused
wire pairs 4/5 and 7/8.
To enable power management for the supplying components, the
W&T Web-IO Analog-In/Out is identified as a Power Class 1 device
with a power consumption of 0.44 to 3.8W.
As an alternative to PoE the device can also be powered externally
using the screw terminal located on the underside of the device.
Use of the W&T Web-IO Analog-In/Out is also possible in
networks wihtout PoE. In this casde simply use an external
!
power supply with the screw terminals as described above.
No additional configurations or settings are necessary.

W&T
1.2.1 Wiring the in- and outputs
Depending on the configuration the W&T Web-IO Analog-In/Out
can be wired as follows, whereby Ports 1 and 2 are indicated by
an „X“. The configuration is identical for both ports:
1.2.2 Current input 0..20mA, passive (#57661)
1.2.3 Current input 0..20mA, active (#57661)
Subject to errors and modifications

W&T
1.2.4 Current output 0..20mA (#57661)
1.2.5 Voltage input 0..10V (#57662)
1.2.6 Voltage output (#57662)
The voltage output must be jumpered to the Sense input, which
can be used to measure and regulate the output voltage. This
jumper can be made either directly on the device or at the remote
end. For longer cable distances the jumper should be made on the
remote end so that fluctuations are automatically compensated for.

1.3 Network connection
The W&T Web-IO Analog-In/Out has an IEEE 802.3 compatible
network connection on a shielded RJ45 connector. The pin
configuration corresponds to an MDI interface, so that the
connection is made to the hub or swtich using a 1:1 shielded patch
cable..
U
Power-over-Ethernet
The W&T Web-IO Analog-In/Out can obtain its supply voltage
through the network interface in accordance with IEEE802.3af /
Power-over-Internet. The feed comes in over the data pairs or on
the wire pairs not used for 10/100BaseT (see PoE section).

W&T
1.4 Assigning the IP address using „WuTility“
Once the hardware has been connected to the power supply as
described above, the IP address needed for operating in a TCP/IP
network must be assigned. You should obtrain the correct value for
this parameter from your systems administrator.
The IP address must be unique in the network.
!
There are various ways of assigning the IP address. To make the
procedure as convenient as possible, we have developed the
„WuTility“ tool, which you can download from the WuT homepage
at http://www.wut.de. This procedure is described in the following.
A summary of the options for assigning the IP address can be
found in the Appendix of this manual..
Be sure that the PC you are using to assign the IP address is
located in the same subnet as the W&T unit and that both the PC
and the unit are connected to the network.
When first started, WuTility automatically searches the local
network for all connected W&T network devices and generates an
inventory list. This search process can be repeated as often as
desired by clicking on the Scan button:
Select your Web-IO from the displayed list based on its MAC
address:
Subject to errors and modifications
13
W&T
Click on the „IP address“ icon:
In the resulting window enter the desired network parameters for
the device. Clicking on the Next button assigns the network
parameters to the device.
All the columns in the WuTility device list are filled with information.
After clicking on the globe in the WuTIlity menu bar your standard
browser is opened and you see the start page of the device.

W&T
1.5 Assigning the IP address using DHCP protocol
Many networks use DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration
Protocol) or the predecessor protocol BOOTP (described in the
following section) for centralized and dynamic assignment of
the network parameters. DHCP protocol is enabled by factory
default setting, so that in network environments wtih dynamic
IP assignment you need only to connect the W&T Web-IO Analog-In/Out to the network. The following parameters can be set
using DHCP:
• IP address
• Subnet mask
• Gateway address
• DNS server
• Lease time
To prevent unintended address assignments or address
1
changes, we recommend disabling DHCP, BOOTP and
RARP protocols unless they are expressly used in the respective
network environment. W&T Web-IO Analog-In/Out units with
incorrectly assigned IP addresses can be conveniently located and
reconfigured using the WuTility management tool.
1.5.1 Enabling/Disabling DHCP
The factory default setting is for DHCP protocol enabled. To
disable or enable it again later any of the following methods may
be used.
• WuTility management tool
From the device list select the desired W&T Web-IO AnalogIn/Out and click on the IP Address button. In the dialog box
enter the new network parameters you want to assign. Disable
the options BOOTP and DHCP. Click on Next to send the new
configuration data to the W&T Web-IO Analog-In/Out.
Subject to errors and modifications
15
W&T
• Web Based Management
In the menu path Config r Device r Basic Settings r Network the
protocols can be alternatingly enabled or disabled. For detailed
information see the section Assigning basic network parameters..
1.5.2 System Name
To suypport any automatic updating of the DNS system by the
DHCP server the W&T Web-IO Analog-In/Out identifies itself within
the DHCP protocol by its system name. The factory default setting
is WEBIO- followed by the last three places of the Ethernet
address. For example, the factory set system name of a W&T
Web-IO Analog-In/Out with Ethernet address 00:c0:3d:01.02.03 is
WEBIO-010203. The system name of the W&T Web-IO Analog-In/
Out can be changed using Web Based Management.
16
W&T
1.5.3 Lease-Time
The lease time determined and sent by the DHCP server
specifies the term of the assigned IP address. After half the lease time has expired the W&T Web-IO Analog-In/Out attempts to
extend or update the address. If this is not possible before the
lease time expires, for example because the DHCP server can
no longer be reached, the W&T Web-IO Analog-In/Out deletes
the IP address and begins a cyclical search for alternate DHCP
servers for assigning a new IP address.
The lease time associated with the current IP address is no
longer available after a reset. After restarting, therefore, a
corresponding update request is made by the original DHCP
server. If the server cannot be reached at this time the W&T WebIO Analog-In/Out deletes the IP address and begins a cyclical
search for alternate DHCP servers.
If DHCP is enabled, the remaining lease time together with the
current IP address is displaced in seconds in the menu path Home
r Doc r Property.
If the DHCP server is no longer accessible after expiration
1
of the lease time, the W&T Web-IO Analog-In/Out deletes its
IP address. All existing TCP/UDP connections between the W&T
Web-IO Analog-In/Out and other network clients are thereby
closed. To prevent such situations, we recommend configuring the
assigned lease time in the DHCP server to infinite whenever
possible.

W&T
1.5.4 Reserved IP addresses
The W&T Web-IO Analog-In/Out provides services which can
make use of the other clients in the network as needed. Of course
the current IP address of the W&T Web-IO Analog-In/Out is
needed by these clients in order to open a connection, so that in
these cases it makes sense to reserve a particular IP address for
the W&T Web-IO Analog-In/Out. This is generally done by linking
the IP address to the unique Ethernet address of the unit, which
can be found on the sticker on the housing.
5xxxx [Typ]
EN=00c03d004a05
OK xxxxxx
1.5.5 Dynamic IP addresses
Fully dynamic address assignment, whereby the Web-IO Analog-In/Out is given a different IP address after each restartor
after the lease time expires, is only practical in network
environments with automatic cross-linking between the DHCP
and DNS services. This means when assigning a new IP address
to the Web-IO Analog-In/Out, the DHCP server automatically
updates the DNS system as well. The new address is assigned
to the respective domain name. For detailed information about
your network environment, consult your systems administrator
when in doubt.
Ethernet-address
For time server requests, sending e-mails or other client
applications where the device itself actively seraches for server
services located in the network, dynamic changing IP addresses
can also be used.
