3 Device Description

Device Description 13

3.1 General Description

As a wireless ETHERNET gateway (WEG), the 758-916 device makes it possible to integrate conventional ETHERNET devices in a wireless network. For this purpose, the device has a wired ETHERNET interface and another interface for radio communication. The device uses the integrated radio technology to transmit the data received on the ETHERNET interface. Conversely, the device uses the

ETHERNET interface to send data received on the radio interface. As data transmission of ETHERNET packets occurs with a transparent protocol on Layer

2 of the OSI reference model, this provides for easy integration of all Ethernetbased fieldbuses, such as MODBUS/TCP, ETHERNET/IP, PROFINET or

PROFISAFE.

In combination with another function-related device, e.g., another WEG or Access

Point (AP) of the same radio technology, the WEG can serve as a wireless replacement for ETHERNET cables. The WEG permits particularly robust, realtime radio connections over long distances. A suitable configuration can also prevent any degradation to other radio networks.

Figure 1: Wireless transmission between two WEGs

An innovative operator control concept enables easy initiation of automatic configuration processes using a Mode membrane key on the device. This can be used to configure a substitute cable link between two WEGs in only a few seconds, without using additional aids or hardware / software.

In addition to operation using the Mode membrane key and the 7 LED status indicators, access to other status information and advanced device functions of the

WEG is also possible via a Web-based Management System (WBM).

Depending on the application, the unit can be operated in various modes.

3.1.1 WLAN Operating Modes

WLAN distinguishes between two fundamentally different network operating modes: Infrastructure mode and ad-hoc mode.

Manual


14 Device Description WAGO-I/O-SYSTEM 758


Figure 2: Infrastructure mode

In infrastructure mode, a distinction is made between two roles for devices in the network. One of the WLAN devices must act as an access point and centrally manage the network while all other WLAN devices act as clients.

Figure 3: Ad-hoc mode

In ad-hoc mode, the attached WLAN devices manage the network peripherally.

Due to the higher administrative effort, only lower data rates and limited security mechanisms are available in contrast to the infrastructure mode.

Manual


WAGO-I/O-SYSTEM 758



The WEG can establish a connection with WLAN networks of both operating modes, but cannot function as an access point itself. If an access point is available and the WEGs can be configured via Web-based Management, the preferred method of operation for the WLAN is in infrastructure mode. This permits higher data rates and the use of better security mechanisms.

3.1.2 LAN Connection Types

Independent of the selected WLAN operating mode, the WEG can be configured for two different LAN connection types: Bridge connection and direct connection.

3.1.2.1 Bridge Connection

Similar to using an ETHERNET switch, the bridge connection makes it possible to connect two ETHERNET segments. To this end, exactly two WEGs must be configured in the network, so that a connection transparent for LAN devices (a bridge) is created between them. In this way, connected WEGs are functionally comparable to two ports of an ETHERNET switch to which other ETHERNET hubs or switches can also be connected.

Bridge connection between two ETHERNET segments only!

A WEG can use a bridge connection to connect exactly one locally connected

ETHERNET segment with exactly one ETHERNET segment connected to another WEG. It is not possible, for example, to connect three ETHERNET segments in this manner.

DHCP is not supported with bridge connections!

If a bridge connection is established, the IP addresses of the WEGs must be static.

Automatic reference of IP addresses via DHCP is not supported for this connection type.

3.1.2.2 Direct Connection

In a direct connection, a WEG can be used as a wireless adapter for exactly one wireless ETHERNET device. The WEG acts as a wireless extension of the wired network interface of this reference device by cloning its ETHERNET MAC address. Therefore, the reference device must be connected to the associated

WEG directly. If an ETHERNET segment is connected to several instead of a single ETHERNET device, only the reference device can use the WEG as a wireless adapter without restriction.

3.4.3 Antenna


The device is equipped with an internal antenna. Good reception conditions exist when the front of the device is oriented centered to the remote device with which the radio link is to be established.

Figure 9: Aligning the device

The alignment characteristic for the internal antenna is primarily relevant for links in the open field and over long distances. When operating the device at short distances, inside buildings or without line-of-sight links structural conditions are the decisive factor for good reception.

As the device comes equipped with a circular polarized antenna, rotation of the device around the link axis between the local and remote device does not have any adverse impact on link quality.

The directional alignment (antenna) diagrams for the antenna are given in the following figures for a frequency of 2.45 GHz.

Manual




Figure 10: Antenna diagram 2.45 GHz – longitudinal axis

The diagram above illustrates the two-dimensional top view of the electromagnetic field of the antenna, with the antenna being the center point. At a beam angle of around 60° the antenna provides excellent reception levels; reception continues to be good up to an angle of 90°, whereas reception markedly deteriorates at beam angles of 110° and greater.

4.1 Selecting the Installation Location

In order to use all the functions of the WEG, a radio link must be established to a device having similar functions, for example a second WEG of the same type. If the two devices are relatively close to one another, that is, if the distance between them is considerably less than the potential range, the installation location and device alignment will have comparatively little impact on the radio link. If you wish to set up and maintain a radio link over the longest distance possible, however, certain requirements regarding the installation of the device and the ambient conditions must be fulfilled.

The distance between devices may not be too great. The maximum range can only be effective under optimal conditions. A lack of line-of-sight link, or misalignment of the devices will result in reduced range.

For a line-of-sight link, install the devices such that the antennas are aligned toward one another, i.e., the marked front side of the devices face one another (see also the figure and the antenna diagrams in the section “Connectors” >

“Antenna”).

If there is no line-of-sight link, but both devices have an unobstructed view of the same metallic or concrete surface (such as a building ceiling), a good radio link can be ensured through reflection.

If there is neither a line-of-sight link, nor a surface to use for reflection, for example between devices in different rooms, align the devices as for a line-ofsight link. The magnitude of the reduction in range for the devices in this case depends on the amount of material, e.g., brick walls, that the radio waves must pass through. In some circumstances, it may not be possible for the radio waves to penetrate certain obstacles, such as fire protection walls, at all.

Always maintain a minimum distance of 50 cm between two WEGs!

Always maintain a distance of at least 50 cm between WEGs when installing them. Radio link quality can be degraded on failure to maintain this distance.

Do not install antenna directly in front of metallic surfaces!

The front of the WEG, and hence the internal antenna, shall not be located directly in front of metallic surfaces, as this can permanently degrade the radio capabilities of the antenna.

Use the drilled holes (see drawing below), for example, and the two M3 screws to attach the WEG to any flat, level surface.

7.3 Configuration Using the External Trigger Input

The external trigger input can be used to signal the device of one of two events.

Which process is triggered can be configured for each event (see Section

“Configuration Using Web-based Management”).

Before the trigger input can be used in this manner, the power supply to the trigger input must be switched off.

• To signal the TRIGGER_PUSH event, apply a voltage to the trigger input for a period of less than 2 seconds. The signal is triggered when the power supply to the trigger input is switched off again.

• To signal the TRIGGER_HOLD event, apply a voltage to the trigger input for a period of more than 2 seconds. The signal is triggered after approx. 2 seconds.

Switch off the power supply to the trigger input again!

The device ignores when the Mode Membrane button is pressed when the external trigger input has power. Therefore, always switch off the power supply to the trigger input after signaling TRIGGER_HOLD.

WAGO-I/O-SYSTEM 758


Configuration 39

7.4 Configuration using the Web-based Management

System (WBM)

A Web-based Management System (WBM) is available on an integrated Web server for configuring the WEG.

You can go the WBM by entering the IP address of the device in the browser

URL line.

Device configuration is password protected. On initial commissioning, the device uses the static IP address and the default settings password (see section “Default

Settings”). If you have forgotten the IP address or password you can reset the device to its factory default settings.

The IP address of the PC used to access the WBM must be in the same subnet as the WEG. You may have to modify the IP configuration of the PC from which you are accessing the WBM before a link can be set up. If the PC is configured to get the IP address via DHCP automatically, you can connect the WEG and PC directly and temporarily activate the integrated DHCP server of the WEG via autoconfiguration procedure 1 (see section “Configuration Using the Mode

Membrane Button”).

7.4.1 Accessing the Web-based Management System

1. To open the WBM, launch a Web browser (e.g., Microsoft Internet Explorer or Mozilla Firefox).

2. Enter the IP address of the WEG on the URL line and confirm by pressing

[Enter].

For WBM access; check the IP/firewall settings and the connection!

If you are not granted access to the WBM check the IP configuration for the PC from which you wish to access the WBM and the settings for the firewalls being used. Ensure that the WEG is properly connected and ready for operation and that the specified IP address is correct. Should you still not be able to set up a connection to the WBM after ruling out any error at the PC, or if you have forgotten the IP address of the WEG, reset the device to its factory default settings.

When access has been made to the WBM the WEG will display an overview page showing status information and operating elements for changing the device configuration (see figure below).

Both devices then carry out a restart and re-establish a wireless link automatically.

Successful autoconfiguration and establishing of a wireless link is indicated by the permanently lit blue link LED “

(((.)))

” on the top of both devices.

8.1.2.3 Configuration of the WEGs Using WBM

As an alternative to using the Mode membrane button, the WBM can also be used to configure a bridge connection without access point. However, it typically takes longer to adjust settings as required. For example, it may be necessary to select the IP addresses of the WEG manually to avoid IP address conflicts.

Configure the 1st WEG by logging into the WBM and choosing your settings according to the table below.

8.1.3 Bridge Connection, with Access Point

Appendix 55

An access point can also be used to establish a bridge connection between WEGs.

A distinction should be made between two cases:

1. WEGs and access point are only connected to each other wirelessly.

2. There is a cable connection between a WEG and the access point.

8.1.3.1 WEGs and Access Point wirelessly connected

This scenario is similar to a bridge connection without access point. Both

ETHERNET segments, in which the WEGs are located, are connected to each other by the bridge connection. If the access point is in a third ETHERNET segment, then this is not included here, i.e. ETHERNET devices connected to the access point by cable cannot communicate with devices of the two ETHERNET segments connected by the bridge connection.

8.1.4 Direct Connection, without Access Point

WEGs can be used to connect several LAN devices in an ad-hoc WLAN. If one

WEG is connected per LAN device, the WEGs can be configured for direct connection. In this scenario, all LAN devices integrated in the WLAN via WEG can communicate with each other and with any other WLAN subscribers.

8.1.5 Direct Connection, with Access Point

WEGs can be used to integrate LAN devices in a WLAN managed by an access point. If one WEG is connected per LAN device, the WEGs can be configured for direct connection. In this case, the WEG acts as a wireless adapter. When there is a radio link, the respective LAN device can communicate with all other LAN or

WLAN devices in the network of the access point.

8.2 Time Response

In automation applications, there may be data transmission time response requirements. If automation devices are not connected to each other directly by cable but indirectly via a communication system, it should first be checked if the transmission properties of the communication system are suitable for the application.

The time response can be characterized with the following parameters:

Table 32: Time Response Parameters

Parameter Description

Latency Property of the communication system:

Time that the communication system needs to deliver a message from device A to device B.

Application requirement:

Time it can take to transmit a message from A to B.

Response time

Property of the communication system:

Time that the communication system needs to deliver a message from device A to device B and to return a response message immediately generated by device B to device A.


Time permitted between sending a message and receiving a response.

Cycle time Property of the communication system:

Time that the communication system needs after receiving a message from device A before it can accept another message for transmission.


Time after sending a message at which the next message can be sent.

The transmission of data by radio changes the time response to the effect that latency, response and cycle time are higher compared to a direct cable connection.

A communication system is then suitable for an application without limitation when lower latency, response and cycle times than required by the application are guaranteed.

A communication system is conditionally suitable for an application when lower latency, response and cycle times than required by the application are normally possible.

The following table shows typical and maximum values for the time response that can be expected when using WEGs.

Interference from other radio systems can worsen time responses!

Other radio systems that transmit data at the same time and frequency can significantly affect the time response. The time response described cannot be achieved when the frequency range used experiences interference over a longer period of time. Therefore, take suitable measures to optimize coexistence.

8.3 Data Rate

WAGO-I/O-SYSTEM 758


In general, communication systems can only communicate with limited bandwidth. Depending on the technology used, the configuration of the devices involved and external circumstances, the data rates for transmission are limited to specific values.

When using wireless communication systems, the following factors contribute to reducing the achievable data rate:

Table 34: Factors That Impact Data Rates

Factor

No. of subscribers

Description

The more communicating devices, the lower the bandwidth available for the individual device.

Signal quality If the signal is week or poor, modulation methods must be

Protocol efficiency used that permit slow data rates, but a more stable connection.

Depending on the protocol, administrative data must be transmitted in addition to user data. The proportion of user data in regards to the total volume of data to be transmitted is a measure for protocol efficiency.

The following table shows example values for the data rate to be expected when using WEGs in the configuration concerned.

8.4 Coexistence

Appendix 67

A basic understanding of the significant influencing factors is required to optimize coexistence between different wireless technologies and/or devices. A brief description of the essential basics is therefore given below. These are followed by specific instructions for appropriate configuration of the WEG to conduct optimization of coexistence tailored to your particular application.

8.4.1 Basics

Interference occurs when signals of different transmitters collide in regards to frequency, location and time. This can cause one or all interfering radio transmissions to be interrupted. To minimize the risk of mutual interference, suitable coexistence measures must be taken. The following basic multiplex techniques are employed to ensure interference-free coexistence.

1. Time-Division Multiplex

Different devices must transmit simultaneously in order for a disturbance of two or more transmission signals to occur. At low traffic volumes, considerably more devices located near one another can be operated before a disturbance occurs.

2.

Code Multiplex

Even if radio signals are transmitted at the same time at the same location and in the same frequency range, the signals can be differentiated and sorted out at the receiving device on the basis of the codes (or frequency splitting techniques) that are used.

3. Space-Division Multiplex

As wireless technologies may only operated with limited transmitting power in the ISM band, the transmitted signals become so weak at a certain distance that they no longer interfere with other devices.

4.

Frequency-Division Multiplex

Radio signals that use clearly isolated frequencies do not interfere with one another.

Availability of the multiplexing techniques presented here to the user does, however, vary to substantially different degrees.

1, for example, is essentially determined by the communicating applications.

Although consideration can be given in the development of the application to ensuring that only important data is transmitted and that there is no steep increase in data traffic under critical conditions in particular, the stipulated process-based limits are nevertheless always tight.

The method explained under 2 is employed automatically by the wireless technologies involved; options for adaptation by the user are not given and would not be practical in any event.

The techniques described under 3 and 4 can, on the other hand, be easily integrated in a frequence utilization plan. Spatial distribution of devices taking part in wireless communication can easily be planned. Taking into consideration

Manual



758-916 WLAN ETHERNET Gateway 2.4 GHz the structural conditions, in particular of fire protection walls or other “absorber” obstacles, mutual interference can be completely ruled out. Frequency-division multiplexing can be employed when clear, spatial separation is not possible. Some technologies even enable the user to specify set frequency ranges to allow them to be reserved exclusively for certain devices. Other technologies monitor the frequency band being used and automatically avoid ranges already experience intensive use.

8.4.2 Optimizing the Device Configuration

To minimize the risk of mutual interference between radio systems, make the following adjustments to the device configuration:

• If only a short distances has to be bridged within a radio system, limit the maximum transmit power.

• There should be as many walls or ceilings between the subscribers of different radio systems as possible while subscribers of the same radio system should be separated by as few structures as possible.

• Neighboring radio systems should use different frequency ranges when possible.

Manual


WAGO-I/O-SYSTEM 758


Appendix 69

8.5 Range in Open Field

The maximum distance that can be overcome by a radio link is defined by the following factors:

1. Input Sensitivity

This denotes the capability of the device hardware to detect the radio signal transmitted by the remote device. The greater the sensitivity, the more weaker signals that can be received.



This is a permanent device property.

2. Transmitting Power

This denotes the signal strength which the device hardware outputs/can output for transmitting.



The maximum transmitting power for the WEG can be set as a parameter. Transmitting power should be set to the highest level for the maximum range.

3.

Antenna Gain

This factor denotes the focusing or bundling properties of the antenna. An antenna with high antenna gain exhibits a strong alignment characteristic, i.e., depending on the antenna alignment, only highly amplified or extremely attenuated signals can be received.



The internal antenna of the WEG possesses an antenna gain of 5 dBi, meaning that the reception properties can be greatly influenced by correct alignment. Best results are achieved when the antenna (front side of device) is facing exactly in the direction from which the radio signals are being received.

4. Ambient Conditions

This factor deals with the physical environment/area around the wireless system. To achieve the maximum range a line-of-sight link should exist between the devices and there should be no objects present along the direct line-of-sight link within a specified radius (the so-called 1st Fresnel zone - see figure below). If this zone is even only partially blocked by any objects the achievable range can quickly be cut in half.

Figure 31: Fresnel zone

The shape of the 1st Fresnel zone is roughly an ellipse whose largest diameter

(twice the radius of the 1st Fresnel zone) is at precisely half the distance.

The table below lists the radii that are to be kept clear:

WAGO-I/O-SYSTEM 758


Radius for 1st Fresnel zone

1.7 m

2.5 m

3.0 m

3.5 m

Range can be affected by other wireless systems!

Other range-influencing factors that are difficult to detect and rule out exist in the spurious irradiation from other wireless systems and/or in a temporal change of the radio channel, for example when the subscriber moves (swaying of the mast in strong wind), or other changes in ambient conditions (vehicles, movement of stored goods, pedestrians). These factors can make a precise prediction of the maximum range extremely difficult.

Effective path of radio waves is more significant than the actual distance!

Overcoming of maximum distances for a line-of-sight link is a scenario completely different from use inside rooms or in the direct vicinity to competing wireless technologies. In these types of scenarios the decisive factor is frequently not the actual distance between the devices, but, rather, the effective path taken by the radio waves for multipath propagation, along with the actual interference present at the exact installation location. Under some circumstances, signal quality may even be enhanced by increasing the distance between the devices.

Appendix 71

8.6 Data Security for Radio Transmission

It is often assumed that wireless communication systems are less secure than lineconnected systems. When used and operated correctly, wireless systems offer at least an equivalent level of security.

The following conditions must apply before an unauthorized user can obtain access to data exchanged via wireless communication:

1. The attacker must be familiar with the communication system in use and be within the operating range of the system.

2. Radio transmission must take place without the use of any security mechanisms offered by this technology or the attacker must have adequate means to determine the security code.

To minimize security risks, choose the best security mechanisms available in the respective configuration such as:

• In an ad-hoc network, use “WEP128” encryption and choose the strongest passkey possible.

• In an infrastructure network in which various WLAN devices are used, use the “WPA2-PSK (AES)” security setting and choose the strongest passkey possible.
