It displays the signal strength of 920 MHz band communication with its own master unit GW1-ETH-WQ.
It also displays the signal strength of P2P mode on slave units which connected with USB cable from PC.

We recommend the signal strength keeps more than -70dB.

"Setting" tab

Device ID

When using several slave units with one GW1-ETH-WQ, it is necessary to set the Device ID uniquely.

[When the product's rotary switch is other than F]

 The value of the rotary switch is displayed. You can not change here.

[When the product's rotary switch is F]

 Set the Device ID here.

  Settable range: 0 to 127

Wireless Channel

Set the channel used for 920 MHz band communication.

  Settable range: 33, 34, 38 to 60

PAN ID

Set the PAN ID used for 920 MHz band communication.

  Settable range: 0 to 65534

When Device Mode is set to "CONPROSYS mode", PAN ID is fixed to 0.

Data Interval

Sets the time interval at which the digital input value of this device is transmitted to its master unit GW1-ETH-WQ.

  Settable range: 10 to 3600 (sec)

"Advanced settings" dialog

Device Mode

Select from the following three modes.

- Wireless I/O mode

  This is the standard mode.
  Select this mode when using this device with API-DIO(WDM) driver.

- CONPROSYS mode

  Select when using this device as a slave unit of our product CONPROSYS series.
  It is necessary to set the MAC address of the master device.

- Peer to Peer mode

  Select when using two products as a pair without using the master unit.
  It is necessary to set the Device ID of the paired device.

The setting items at the bottom of Device Mode change depending on the selected mode.

"Common Setting"
These are the setting items for all modes.

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.

The initial value is 3000.

  Settable range: 1000 to 60000 (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.

Digital Filter

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

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

"Wireless I/O mode Setting"
Setting items when Wireless I/O mode is selected

Priority Route

This can be set on WIO mode.
You can indicate the communication root (Hopping direction) when the device is sending the data to the gateway device.

This device supports multi-hop communication and the device select the communication root automatically by the factory default.
Once it recognizes the communication error, the device switches to the other communication root.

In generally, to increasing the number of connected Sub-GHz wireless device in the same area, it is getting to become more radio interference and it may be easy to occur the communication error.

In this situation, the device tries to switch the communication root frequently, it may become unstable the wireless communication in the factory default.

You may have more stable wireless communication when you choose this option to meet your wireless environment.

 - Disable: You do not choose the priority root (Factory default)
    The device select the communication root automatically.

 - Gateway: You indicate the priority communication root (Hopping direction) to Gateway.
    You may have stable communication in the situation of the device and the gateway device are able to communicate directly.
    It become same as "Disable" if the device is not able reach to communicate with the gateway device directly.

 - ID:0 - 127: You indicate the priority communication root (Hopping direction) to the secondary device which has specified ID.
     The secondary device processes relaying for wireless communication.
    You may have stable communication with relaying process even though the device can not communicate with the gateway device directly.
     It become same as "Disable" if the device is not able reach to communicate with the secondary device directly.

DI Count

Select Enabled if you want the digital input counting function to start when the device starts up.

Apart from this setting, it is also possible to start and stop by executing the API function after starts up.
In addition, Digital Filter must be enabled to use this function.

Count Edge

Select the direction for counting digital inputs.

- When Rising is selected, the rising edge (0->1) of digital input signal is counted.
- When Falling is selected, the falling edge (1->0) of the digital input signal is counted.
- When Both is selected, both rising (0->1) and falling (1->0) of the digital input signal are counted.

"CONPROSYS mode Setting"
Setting items when CONPROSYS mode is selected

Master MAC Address

It is not necessary to set it in normal "Wireless I/O mode".

When using in "CONPROSYS mode", set the MAC address of the master unit.

Hop MAC Address

When relaying the communication of other slaves, register the MAC address of the slave to relay.

Up to 100 units can be set.

When you click ADD button, the input field will be displayed, so specify the MAC address.
To delete the registered MAC address, click DEL button after selecting.

"Peer-to-Peer mode Setting"
Setting items when Peer-to-Peer mode is selected

Pair Device ID

Set the Device ID of the device paired with this device.

"FailSafe" tab

Event Trigger

- Linkdown

Select this when activating fail-safe when link down state occurs, such as when the LAN cable is disconnected.

Event Trigger

- No Access

Select this when activating fail-safe when there is no access for the set time.

  Settable range: 1 to 3600 (sec)

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.

  Settable range: 0 to 3600 (sec)

FailSafe OutBit (Hex)

Set the output terminal to output with the fail-safe function.

Set the output terminal in hexadecimal.

  Settable range: 0 to F

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

Output Data (Hex)

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 (Hex)".

  Settable range: 0 to F

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

Output Multi Data

Check this if you want to output multiple data continuously when fail-safe is activated.

When checked, the "FailSafe(MultiData)" tab will appear, so set up multiple data there.

"FailSafe(MultiData)" tab

Output Data (Hex) 1`8

Up to eight fail-safe output data can be set.

The setting method is the same as above "Output Data (Hex)".

Hold Time (*100msec) 1`8

Set the data output time in units of 100 milliseconds.

After this time, the next data is output.

  Settable range: 1 to 600 (*100msec)

patterns

Set the number of data to be output.

Repeat

After outputting the number of data set with "patterns", set whether to repeat output from 1 of "Output Data" again.

If you do not repeat, select "1 time".

To repeat infinitely, select "Infinite".

It can also be repeated a certain number of times, the setting range is 2 to 255 times.
