[#]:Select device

Select the device for which you want to change the DeviceName.
At the "Please input" prompt, specify the number in [] of the target device.
Enter the number of the target device, information about the selected device will be displayed, and wait for command selection.

The commands that can be executed depend on the target device.

 

Change DeviceName

Select the command "[1]:Change DeviceName" to change the DeviceName of the selected device.
Select the command "[m]:Back to menu", the (Devices list) menu will be displayed again, and wait for command selection.
It can not have the same name as any other device.
When specifying a device from an application, specify this DeviceName.

 

Network settings

Configure the wired LAN network

 

920MHz wireless settings

Make settings related to 920MHz wireless communication.  

Item name

Description

Wireless Channel

Set the channel used for 920 MHz band communication.

PAN ID

Set the PAN ID used for 920 MHz band communication.
It is fixed to 0 when Device Mode of "Other settings" is set to "CONPROSYS mode"

Tx Power

Set transmission output.
Normally, it uses the initial value of 20 (mW).  

Bit Rate

Set the bit rate (communication speed).
Normally, it uses the initial value of 100 (kbps).

Request Timeout

Set the communication timeout time between the master unit and slave unit.
Normally, it uses the initial value of 3000 (msec).

Aging Time

Set the connection maintenance time between the master and slave.
The initial value is 600.

Normally, use the default value, but if you have changed Data Interval setting,
We recommend changing the value to about 10 times Data Interval setting.

Also, when changing this setting, it is recommended to set the same setting for the master unit.
Settable range: 60 to 36000 (sec)

Encryption Key

Set the encryption key used for communication between the master unit and the slave unit.

It is specified with 32 digit hexadecimal number, and the initial value is all 0.
In order for the master unit and the slave unit to communicate, the same value must be set in Encryption Key.

Priority Route

If there is a communication route you want to prioritize, specify the target Device ID.
This is valid only when Device Mode is "Wireless I/O mode".

If you want to communicate directly with the master unit, specify  the target Device ID of Gateway.
If you want to pass through other slave device, specify the target Device ID of it.

- Disabled Do not specify a preferred route
- Gateway In an environment where the slave device can directly communicate with the master unit, the master unit has priority.
- ID: 0-127 Specify the slave unit that gives priority to relaying.

 

FailSafe settings

Configure the fail-safe function.  

Item name

Description

Event Trigger

Sets the condition to activate fail-safe state.

Linkdown is conditional on link down of the network such as disconnection of the LAN cable.
NoAccess is conditional on condition that there is no access for a certain period of time.

Failsafe OutBit

Set the output terminal to output with the fail-safe function.
It specifies by hexadecimal number, and it outputs from the output terminal with bit 1.

Setting example:
To use output terminals 0, 1, 2, 3, set F

Pattern Setting

Set the output data to be output with the fail-safe function.
Set 0 or 1 output in hexadecimal from the output terminal set with "FailSafe OutBit".

Setting example:
To set the output of output terminals 0, 1, 2, 3 to "0, 1, 0, 1", set A

Start wait time

Set the time to disable the fail-safe function after turning on the power.
The fail-safe function is enabled after the set time has elapsed.

 

Firewall settings

Set whether to allow Event Notify Function (UDP:0x501F) in Firewall settings.
If unregistered, the event notification function of the ETH device will not be available.
If registered, the port on the PC side will be released and connections from the ETH device UDP:0x501F will be allowed.

When an ETH device is detected, the ETH device UDP:0x501F is allowed by default.

 

Other settings

Item name

Description

DI Count

Select Enabled to start the digital input counter function when the device starts up.
Apart from this setting, it is also possible to start and stop by executing the API function after starting.

Count Edge

Select the direction in which you want to count the digital inputs.

Unit ID

When using the same product, it is necessary to set the Unit ID uniquely.

Device ID

When using several slave units with one master unit, it is necessary to set the Device ID uniquely.

Digital Filter

Set the digital filter value at power on of this device.

When using this device with API-DIO(LNX) driver, it is possible to set the digital filter at any time by API function separately from this setting.

Data Interval

Sets the time interval at which the input value of this device is transmitted to its master unit.

Device Mode

Normally it is used in the initial value "Wireless I/O mode".

Select "CONPROSYS mode" when using it as a slave of our product CONPROSYS series.
Select "Peer-to-Peer mode" when operating with two slave units without using the master unit.

Modbus Function

Set enable / disable of Modbus function.

It is compatible with Modbus TCP Slave and can collect and control data from upper communication equipment with Modbus master function.
The default value is Enabled.
