¾ About
This manual is intended to guide you through the setup and configuration of your
ProLinx Wireless ASCII and DFNT devices.
Important: This Setup Guide shows you how to set up a simple wireless network between a 6201-WA-ASCII module and a 6201-WA-DFNT module. This guide should be used as a starting point only.
In all likelihood, the requirements of your particular application will involve additional configuration and development. For detailed information on the ASCII, DFNT, and
ProLinx Wireless protocols, please refer to the following Driver Manuals, on your
ProSoft Solutions CD-ROM:
ASCII Manual
DFNT Manual
PWP Driver Manual
For general information on installing and configuring ProLinx modules, please refer to the ProLinx Reference Guide, also on your ProSoft Solutions CD-ROM.
1.1 Before You Begin
The insert included with your modules describes a sample SINGLE-REMOTE SITE SAMPLE application.
It is important that you read through the insert and perform any required steps.
Setting up the ASCII and DFNT network is relatively simple using the sample files included on the ProLinx
Solutions CD. The flow diagram illustrates the highlevel steps used to configure each module.
The default configuration file contains separate configurations for each module. You can use the sample files to get started or you can create the configuration files from scratch. The easiest way to begin is to use the sample configurations. Once you understand how they are created, setting up your network is easy.

1.2 Using the Sample ProSoft Configuration Builder Files
Introduction
The sample application uses one 6201-WA-ASCII module and one 6201-WA-
DFNT module to establish wireless communications between an ASCII
Communication Device (Terminal, Scanner, Printer) at a local site and a PLC located at a remote site. The WA-DFNT module is configured as a Client. The following diagram illustrates this application.

In this example, the following is assumed:
That the ASCII Device and the Remote PLC are located far enough from each other that a wired connection would be impractical
The application uses one 6201-WA-ASCII module and one 6201-WA-DFNT module to establish communication between the ASCII Device such as a data terminal with modifications to the ASCII module configuration file. Scanners and printers may also be connected.
The module's radio communication parameters are preset and configured to pass up to 1200 words/2400 characters in either direction
You can use this guide in one of two ways. First, you can use it as a learning tool to see how the PCB files make the sample application work. You can also follow along with the example and modify the configuration files as you go along.
The logic in the following flow chart needs to be implemented in the processor to which the 6201-WA-DFNT is wired. This will enable the 6201-WA-ASCII module to properly exchange data with the Serial Port connected ASCII Device.
In the example below, the 6201-WA-6201 Module has been configured to transmit and receive data using "Intercharacter Delay Timeout". This means that when the users set amount of milliseconds expires without arrival of additional characters into serial port buffer, the module will transfer the arrived data from the serial port buffer into the module's main memory. The data in the main memory is available to the radio section of the module for wireless exchange.

1.3 About Transmission Casts
Introduction
The sample uses a UNICAST transmission type. UNICAST means that you set up Produce and Consume Commands that transfer or receive data between two individual modules. For example, a Produce command can specify that this data is only produced to one particular consuming module based on the consuming modules IP address.
In addition to UNICAST, you also have the flexibility of using MULTICAST (data sent to multiple modules in a MULTICAST Group List but only picked up by the module within that list with a Consume command that has the matching
Exchange ID and the IP address of the module multicasting the command), and
BROADCAST which sends data out to all modules. With BROADCAST, each module receives the transmission whether it be two modules or 50 modules.
Each module receiving the BROADCAST has to check every message to determine if it is intended for the module or not. This can decrease performance times since the module may be checking hundreds of messages that are not intended for it.
Use MULTICAST to limit the modules that should receive the message. For example, five modules may be part of a MULTICAST Group, yet there may be 15 modules on the network. Only five of the 15 modules on the network will be configured to handle certain types of commands while the remaining 10 that are not in the MULTICAST group will ignore the messages not intended for them.

This section is used to synchronize the time using a centralized atomic clock.
This feature is only usable if your modules are communicating through an access point such as a RadioLinx Industrial Hotspot. The values in this window should be left with the default values. As you select each parameter, the help window on the screen displays information to help you make your selections. The PWP
Driver Manual located on the ProLinx Solutions CD describes each parameter in detail.
3.1.4 Radio PWP Exchanges
Double-click on the icon.
This is the area where you set up data exchange between the modules.
Communication is accomplished using Producer and Consumer commands.
Using these commands, you specify the IP address of the receiving (Consumer) and sending (Producer) module as well as the database locations to produce data and receive data.
In the sample application, the modules are set up to send 1200 words back and forth between the 6201-WA-ASCII and the 6201-WA-DFNT modules. Each module contains a database and both modules are capable of producing or consuming data. This is accomplished using ProSoft Wireless Protocol (PWP) commands. In the sample, we are sending all 1200 words and receiving 1200 words back. We are actually sending only 50 words of data from and to the user's main and remote sites.
Two Produce commands and two Consume commands are used to make this happen. Each command sends (or receives) 600 words of data. The following example shows both produce commands from the sample application.

This section is used to synchronize the time using a centralized atomic clock.
This feature is only usable if your modules are communicating through an access point such as a RadioLinx Industrial Hotspot. The values in this window should be left with the default values. As you select each parameter, the help window on the screen displays information to help you make your selections. The PWP
Driver Manual located on the ProLinx Solutions CD describes each parameter in detail.
4.1.4 Radio PWP Exchanges
Double-click on the icon.
This is the area where you set up data exchange between the ASCII and the
DFNT modules. Communication is accomplished using Producer and Consumer commands. Using these commands, you specify the IP address of the receiving
(Consumer) and sending (Producer) module as well as the database locations to produce data and receive data.
In the sample application, the modules are set up to send 1200 words back and forth between the 6201-WA-ASCII and the 6201-WA-DFNT module. Each module contains a database and both modules are capable of producing or consuming data. This is accomplished using ProSoft Wireless Protocol (PWP) commands. In the sample, we are sending all 1200 words and receiving 1200 words back. We are actually sending only 50 words of data from and to the user's main and remote sites.
Two Produce commands and two Consume commands are used to make this happen. Each command sends (or receives) 600 words of data. The following example shows both produce commands from the sample application.

Both the ASCII and the DFNT have corresponding Produce and Consume commands. The following diagram illustrates the sample application:
6201-WA-ASCII (Primary Client) PWP Exchanges
6201-WA-DFNT (Remote Client)
Note: The sample configuration file also shows an additional Produce and Consume command. These commands are designed to pass a time value from the DFNT to the
ASCII module and then loop back from the ASCII to the DFNT. These commands are included for testing and radio communication verification purposes only and are not necessarily required for your application.
This section does not contain any data for the sample application. The sample application uses UNICAST transmission and therefore there is no need to enter
IPs of other devices in this section. The ProLinx PWP Driver Manual describes this section in detail.
4.1.6 DFNT Client 0
The sample configuration file requires that the module currently being configured be configured as a Client. This is done in the DFNT Client 0 section.
