INTRODUCTION
This publication describes installation of the Siemens Wireless
Process Solution (WiPS) 200 Series Two-Way Multipoint-To-Point
I/O modules are used to construct a WiPS wireless network for the
gathering and distribution of process related analog, digital, and
pulse/frequency data. Table 1, on the next page, identifies each
WiPS 200 Series model. The table also provides a description of
each item and an order/part number. Shown at right are a
transceiver, the right-most module, and five I/O modules mounted
on a section of DIN rail.
A WiPS wireless network is built using a selection of transceivers,
I/O Expansion modules, and accessories, such as antennas, antenna
cables, and power supplies. Transceivers perform two-way wireless
communications. They also have I/O capability with one analog
input channel, one analog output channel, two digital input channels, and two digital output channels. I/O Expansion
modules perform the bulk of the process data gathering and distribution. A selection of modules is available to
accommodate analog, digital, and pulse/frequency data. Antenna selections include a wide range of omnidirectional
and Yagi directional models. These antennas can be paired with low loss antenna cable to further improve
transmitted signal strength allowing communication over longer distances. Siemens Logo power supplies are
available to power transceivers and I/O Expansion modules. Other accessories include surge voltage protection
adapters and cable connector adapters.
Transceiver with 1/4-Wave Antenna
Typical I/O Expansion Module
Siemens Logo Power Supplies
Two types of transceivers are provided: Master and Remote (i.e. Slave2). The master transceiver is installed at a
central data collection and processing location, such as a control room. Remote transceivers are installed near field
devices, such as transmitters, counters, motors, fans, conveyer belts, stirrers, and annunciators. Each wireless
network must have one master transceiver and at least one remote transceiver. Up to eight remote transceivers can
be installed on a network allowing access to widely distributed field devices.
Table 1 lists the seven types of WiPS I/O Expansion modules and their model and order numbers. I/O Expansion
modules are added to the wireless network’s Master and Remote transceivers in complementary pairs. Up to eight
I/O Expansion modules of any combination can be connected to a Master transceiver. Eight complementary I/O
Expansion modules can then be connected to up to eight remote transceivers. Thus a total of sixteen modules can be
connected to your WiPS wireless network. As mentioned above, I/O Expansion modules are added to the network in
complementary pairs:
•
An input module at the Master transceiver must be complemented by an output module of the same type at a
remote transceiver.
•
An output module at the Master transceiver must be complemented by an input module of the same type at a
remote transceiver.
The network can accommodate a maximum of 32 analog signals or 64 digital signals or 16 pulse signals or a
combination of analog, digital, and pulse signals (total of inputs or outputs, not the sum of input and outputs).
1 The terms radio and transceiver are used interchangeably in this guide.
2 The terms remote and slave are used interchangeably in this guide.

May 2007
IGWiPS200-1
Each transceiver and each I/O Expansion module has bus connectors on both sides of its cover: a male connector on
one side, a female connector on the other. A transceiver and several I/O Expansion modules can be physically
interconnected by way of their bus connectors and then snapped onto a section of DIN rail as a single unit. These
bus connectors carry signal, power, and ground connections between the interconnected devices.
An easy to use wireless network Configurator is available at the Siemens Internet site to help you select remote
transceivers and I/O expansion modules. A master transceiver and one remote transceiver are the configuration
starting point. When adding an I/O module to a remote transducer, the complementary module is automatically
added to the master transceiver. For example, adding an 8-Channel Digital Input Module to a remote transceiver will
cause an 8-Channel Digital Output Module to be automatically added to the master transceiver. The online
Configurator totals the number of I/O Expansion modules and displays a warning if the maximum quantity is
exceeded.

All 200 Series transceivers and I/O Expansion module have bus connectors for distribution of power and data.
A WiPS Series 200 transceiver is a frequency hopping spread spectrum radio designed for professional installation
and integration with other products. When installed with an approved antenna and cable, the system integrator needs
to make sure that the unit’s FCC label is clearly visible on the outside of the integrated product. WiPS is approved
within the 902 to 928 MHz ISM band under 47CFR15.247 of the FCC Rules and Regulations.
Frequency hopping spread spectrum technology was originally developed by the U.S. military to prevent
interference or interception of radio transmissions on the battlefield. Frequency hopping devices concentrate their
full power into a very narrow signal and randomly hop from one frequency to another within a designated frequency
band. If they encounter interference on a particular frequency, the devices error-check the affected data, hop to
another point on the spectrum, and resume communications on subsequent hops. Since there are always spaces
without interference somewhere in the allotted radio spectrum, a frequency hopping device will use those spaces to
complete a transmission.

INSTALLATION
This section provides installation procedures for a WiPS 200 Series wireless network. A wireless network contains a
master transceiver and up to eight remote (i.e. slave) transceivers. I/O Expansion modules provide the network with
additional analog, digital, and pulse I/O capacity. Transceivers and I/O modules are mounted on user-supplied DIN
rail by the installer. Accessories include antennas (omnidirectional and directional as needed), low-loss antenna
cables, connector adapters, voltage transient suppression adapters, and power supplies.
A sample installation is shown in Figure 1. It shows a DIN-rail mounted transceiver and two I/O modules located in
a NEMA 4X rated enclosure. Note the use of a single-point ground system to prevent undesired ground loop
currents. Installation of user-supplied DIN rail and transceiver and I/O modules is discussed later in this section.
The highly directional Yagi antenna, shown below, is used when data transmission over longer distances is
necessary. An omnidirectional whip antenna is used for shorter distances and when a circular radiation pattern is
desired, often due to the wide physical distribution of remote transceivers. Regardless of antenna type, a surge
arrestor is highly recommended, particularly in out-of-doors installations, to protect the connected transceiver from
very large voltages induced by lightning strikes and other electromagnetic events.

IGWiPS200-1
ANTENNA CONNECTORS AND SURGE VOLTAGE PROTECTION
Each transceiver has an MCX female antenna connector. The base 3-1/2", 1/4-wave whip antenna has an MCX male
connector. Optional higher gain antennas and low-loss coaxial cables have type-N connectors. MCX to type-N
adapters and other connector adapters are available. Optional antennas may be accompanied by additional
installation instructions.
If an antenna will be installed out-of-doors or otherwise exposed to surge voltages or strong electromagnetic fields,
such as from a nearby lightning strike, a COAXTRAB Surge Voltage Protection Adapter should be included in the
installation; see Figure 1 for a typical installation. The adapter features a user replaceable gas arrestor tube that
shunts induced high voltage to ground to help protect the transceiver.
Type-N connectors are provided on the adapter; the genders of the two adapter connectors are specified by the
adapter part number. Mount the surge adapter through a bulkhead, through the wall of an enclosure (as shown in
Figure 1), in-line with the antenna cable, on the supplied straight bracket, or on a user-fabricated bracket. Installation
instructions are supplied with the adapter.
CURRENT (AMPERAGE) BUDGET CALCULATION
A common current bus interconnects a transceiver and its connected I/O modules; see Figure 2. The current on this
bus may not exceed 5A. This section shows how to calculate the current flowing on the common current bus. Note
that the calculations in this section are also useful when determining power supply requirements at each transceiver
location.
Figure 2 shows a two-node (remote site and control room) wireless network. The remote site has a remote
transceiver, two input modules, and a power supply. The master transceiver is installed at a control room with two
complementary output modules and a power supply.
The bus current at each transceiver location is calculated by summing the current requirements for the transceiver
and all connected I/O modules. Table 2 lists the current requirements of each module type.

A. Analog Output and Digital Output Fault Response Selections
Three I/O modules (4-Channel Analog Output Module, 8-Channel Digital Output Module, and Combination
Input/Output Module) contain DIP switches that may be set by the user to determine the module’s response to the
connected transceiver’s loss of an RF Link or to the loss of an input signal. There is a DIP switch for each signal
channel allowing individual programming of each channel. See Figures 13, 15, and 16 on pages 23, 24, and 25
respectively.
When a loss of RF Link or signal occurs:
•
•
If the DIP switch is set to ON, the default setting, the output from that channel will MAINTAIN LAST STATE.
If the DIP switch is set to OFF, the output from an analog channel will be 2 mA; the output from a digital
channel will be OFF.
Refer to paragraph C to set the DIP switches.
B. Pulse Input and Pulse Output Mode of Operation Selections
The 2-Channel Pulse Input Module has five sliding-shunt switches, the complementary 2-Channel Pulse Output
Module has four DIP switches. Several switches are used to select mode of operation: counter or frequency. Others
allow selection of coupling, impedance, speed, and sensor input. Setting for Pulse Input and Pulse Output Modules
are detailed below. Refer to paragraph C to set the switches.
Pulse Input Module (See Figure 17 on page 26)
Switch 1 Coupling – AC or DC; Default setting is AC
Set the jumper to AC Coupling if the pulse voltage will never drop below 3.6V with respect to the
transceivers power supply negative. This would apply where there is a DC bias voltage added to the pulse
input voltage, where the DC bias exceeds 3.6V such as in a ground loop condition. All other applications,
including an AC sine wave input, should be set to DC Coupling.
Switch 2 Input Impedance – Low or High; Default setting is High
The Low impedance setting has an input impedance of 1K Ohm and the High setting has an impedance of
90K Ohm. Use the High impedance setting for magnetic transducers to prevent the current draw from
dropping the voltage below the 100 mVAC peak-to-peak minimum. Use the Low impedance setting for
digital and relay interfaces because the additional current draw will prevent electrical noise from causing
false pulse counts.
Switch 3 Operation – Counter or Frequency; Default setting is Counter
Pulse input values are stored in the PLC register in either of two formats: an absolute count of the number of
pulses, which will require that the register be reset periodically to prevent overflow, or a frequency value.
The frequency setting will take the average number of pulses every second.
Switch 4 Speed – Low or High; Default setting is High
The Low speed pulse setting is for a maximum input frequency of 2 Hz with a minimum pulse width of 70
ms. The High speed setting is designed for pulse frequencies up to 32 kHz and requires a minimum pulse
width of 10 microseconds. Use the Low speed setting for mechanical pulse generating devices such as relays
and the high speed setting for all other applications. The Low speed setting prevents contact bounce from
being recorded as pulses.
Switch 5 Sensor Input – Single Ended (Common Mode) or Differential Mode; Default setting is Single
Ended
If the pulse signal is expected to be of negative polarity, with respect to ground, set the module to Differential
mode, whereas if the signal will remain positive at all times, set it to Single Ended (Common Mode).

There are two DIP switches for each channel: switches 1 and 2 for channel 1, switches 3 and 4 for channel 2.
Switches 1 (CH1) and 3 (CH2) – Counter or Frequency Mode; Default setting is Counter
When Counter mode is selected, the module will output a specific number of pulses as determined by the
PLC value written to it by the Pulse Input Module. If Frequency mode is selected, the pulse output module
will generate pulses in accordance with the desired frequency, with a 50% duty cycle. In Frequency mode,
the low or high speed switch setting below is ignored.
Switches 2 (CH1) and 4 (CH2) – Low or High Speed Operation; Default setting is High
Set this switch when the channel is set to Counter mode; see preceding paragraph. If High speed is selected
the pulses will be sent at a frequency of 10 kHz with a 50% duty cycle. If Low speed is selected the pulses
will be sent at a frequency of 10 Hz also with a 50% duty cycle.
C. Setting Module Switches
Perform the following steps to change switches from default settings.
1. Place an anti-static wrist strap on your wrist and connect the strap’s ground lead to a good ground. If
the module to be configured is installed on DIN rail, go to step 2; if it has not been installed, go the
step 3.
2. Remove power and signal from the transceiver and all I/O modules, if the module is installed and wired.
At the module to be configured, remove the wired connector block(s) from the module; see Figure 5 on page 17
for photographs (alternatively, label each wire to facilitate reconnection and then disconnect the wires).
Physically separate interconnected modules to disconnect the common current bus connectors. Use a small
straight slot screwdriver to lever the spring-loaded module mounting lip away from the DIN rail allowing that
module to slide on the rail. Remove the module from the DIN rail.
3. Remove the faceplate/circuit board assembly by locating a rectangular recess near the numbered terminals on
the top of the module cover; see the photographs below and Figure 4 on page 15. With a small flat blade
screwdriver, press the tab in the recess inward and pull that corner of the faceplate outward slightly. Repeat this
process at the bottom of the module. Carefully pull the faceplate/circuit board assembly from the cover.
4. Locate the module at hand in Figures 12 through 18 on pages 23 through 26. Set the switches as described in the
appropriate preceding paragraph and figure.
5. Press the faceplate ribbon cable into the module and carefully insert the circuit board into its cover until it snaps
into place. When inserting the circuit board into its cover, be sure the circuit board engages the card guides in
the cover and that the circuit board card edge connector mates with the connector in the cover.
6. If the module was removed from DIN rail in step 2, install the module on the rail. Fully insert the connector
blocks (or connect removed wires).
7. Repeat the above steps for each module containing switches.

Conduit adapters
Operator controls
Circuit protection/safety devices (e.g. switches, circuit breakers, or fuses)
Other items as determined by the installer/user.
Fasten the DIN rail to a rigid panel within the enclosure using user-supplied hardware. An enclosure is required in a
hazardous area installation. In a non-hazardous area, a secure enclosure can provide safety for area personnel and it
restricts access to the equipment.
IMPORTANT
The DIN rail must be grounded. When mounting the DIN rail in a non-conductive
enclosure, install a ground wire between the rail and the single point ground.
DIN Rail Mount Transceiver or I/O Expansion Module
Figure 3 Physical Dimensions
MOUNTING A TRANSCEIVER OR I/O MODULE
I/O Expansion Modules may be mounted on a section of DIN rail in any sequence. Mount the Transceiver at either
end of the row of up to 8 I/O modules, to ensure sufficient heat dissipation.
IMPORTANT
If a module contains configuration switches that have not been set, refer to I/O Module
Configuration Switch Selections on page 11 before installing the module on DIN rail. A list
of modules with configuration switches is provided in the referenced section.
At each installation site, the transceiver and I/O modules are interconnected by built-in bus connectors; see Figure 4
below. Each module has male bus connectors on one side and female bus connectors on the other. When mounting
modules on a DIN rail, be sure to correctly orient modules so they interconnect and the module faceplates are
oriented for easy reading. Refer to the following procedures to install modules.
14
May 2007
IGWiPS200-1
Each module has a moveable, spring-loaded mounting lip to assist in mounting a module, sliding a module along the
DIN rail, and removing a module from the DIN rail. This lip has a slotted tab so the blade of a small screwdriver can
be inserted and the lip levered away from the rail.
Figure 4 Module Features
To mount a row of up to 8 modules on a DIN rail:
1. Interconnect the modules by mating the bus connectors.
2. Hook the fixed mounting lips, see Figure 4, on the DIN rail.
3. Press the assembly onto the DIN rail. The spring-loaded mounting lips will snap onto the rail. Do not use
excessive force.
4. A transceiver is supplied with a bus connector cover, shown at right. Place the cover over the
exposed male bus connectors at one end of a group of modules.
To add a module to a row:
1. Note the gender of the installed module’s bus connector.
2. Orient the module and hook the module’s fixed mounting lip on the DIN rail.
3. Press the module against the DIN rail until the spring-loaded mounting lip snaps onto the rail.
4. Slide the module to one side until the bus connector mates with the adjacent module. A module will easily slide
on the DIN rail if the spring-loaded lip is levered away from the rail.
5. As required, place a bus connector cover (supplied with a transceiver) over the exposed male bus connectors at
one end of a group of modules.
To remove a module from the DIN rail:
1. Separate the module to be removed from adjacent modules. To move a module, use a small straight-slot
screwdriver to lever the spring loaded mounting lip slightly away from the rail and slide the module along the
DIN rail until the bus connectors separate. Be sure the bus connectors on both sides of the module to be
removed are fully disengaged from adjacent modules.
2. On the module to be removed, lever the moveable, spring-loaded mounting lip away from the DIN rail. Then
pull the module from the DIN rail.

MOUNTING THE 1/4-WAVE WHIP ANTENNA
Mount the 3-1/6" (80.4 mm) high, omnidirectional whip antenna5, shown at right, within 5' (1.5m) of the
transceiver to allow the supplied 6' (2m) cable to easily reach between the antenna and transceiver. A
mounting bracket and three screws are supplied. Antenna spacing (transmitter to receiver) should not
exceed 600' to 1000' (183m to 305m). Line of sight is not a requirement.
Incorrect antenna placement and positioning can have a significant impact on the performance of the
system. Keep the omnidirectional antenna vertical and mounted as high as possible.
1. Fasten the supplied right-angle bracket to a rigid, vibration-free surface such that the antenna is oriented
vertically.
2. Unscrew the black disk from the antenna cable end. Insert the antenna cable stud into the large center hole in
the bracket and thread the disk onto the stud. The shallow shoulder on the disk should be toward the bracket
surface. Refer to the cover of this publication.
3. Center the disk in the hole using the shallow shoulder on the disk to assist centering and then tighten the disk.
The supplied hex wrench can be inserted in a hole in the disk perimeter to help tighten the disk. Do not over
tighten. The threaded stud must not be in contact with the grounded bracket.
4. Thread the antenna onto the stud and tighten.
5. Once the transceiver is installed, plug the MCX male connector on the end of the antenna cable into the MCX
female connector on the transceiver faceplate.
WIRING
This section provides wiring guidelines for the transceiver and I/O Expansion modules.
A wireless network contains a master transceiver and up to eight matched remote transceivers. These transceivers
will communicate only with each other. Refer to Installation, Matched Transceivers for additional information.
Before wiring transceivers, confirm that the ID numbers match and that the installed locations are correct. This is
particularly important when installing several wireless networks.
These devices must be wired in accordance with Class 1, Div. 2 wiring methods as described in the National
Electrical Code, Article 501-4(b) or the authority having jurisdiction.
DANGER

Wire Stripping Recommendations:
Screw terminal wiring - 1/4" (6 mm) to 5/16" (8 mm)
Be careful not to nick the conductor or cut away strands.
Wire Selection - Stranded wire is recommended for most connections. Carefully select wire size, conductor
material, and insulation. Some selection considerations are:
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
current and voltage to be carried
total length of each wire run
whether wire will be bundled or run singly
indoor or outdoor installation
temperature extremes (Use supply wires suitable for 5°C (10°F) above ambient temperature.)
exposure to sunlight
vibration
types of contaminates
Wire Routing and Conduit - DC wiring should be separated from AC wiring and away from AC powered
pushbuttons, alarms, annunciators, motors, solenoids, and similar devices. Conduit and raceways are commonly
used for routing wiring. Wiring not installed in conduit or raceway should be clamped or supported approximately
every 12 inches (300 mm).
Power Input Circuit Protection
A circuit protection device must be installed in the power input circuit between the power source and the WiPS
transceiver or I/O module. Locate the protective device in a non-hazardous area unless suitable for use in a
hazardous area. Circuit protection can be provided by a circuit breaker, fuse or on-off switch accessible to the
operator, except where otherwise stated in this guide or by a certifying agency.
•
AC to DC (converter) power supply – Typically, this power supply includes a fuse or circuit breaker in its
output circuit and often includes current limiting. An additional protective device at the module enclosure is
recommended. Check power supply specifications carefully.
•
Battery power supply – This power system, because of the large amount of energy stored in a battery, must
include circuit protection.

Transceiver Wiring Examples
Five transceiver wiring examples are provided below. Figures 6, 7, and 8 show typical transceiver wiring for 2-wire,
3-wire, and 4-wire current loops. Figures 9 and 10 show two variations on the wiring for a loop powered external
analog device. Also shown in Figures 9 and 10 is the wiring for an RF Link annunciator, which can be an input to a
PLC or controller or a separate light or siren. A digital output wiring example is provided in Figure 9.
The transceiver is DC-powered, typically by a DIN rail mount power supply, as shown below. The power supply for
the transceiver also powers the connected I/O modules. Power is supplied through the transceiver and across the
common current bus as shown in Figure 2 on page 10.

Transceiver RF Link and Output State Wiring Options
This section describes the transceiver RF link status relay and the analog output and digital output wiring options. A
block diagram of the transceiver is shown in Figure 11.
Figure 11 Transceiver Block Diagram
Transceiver RF Link
The RF Link relay has Form A, Normally Open (NO) contacts that close when the transceiver establishes an RF link
with another transceiver. The contacts are often used to turn on a STATUS light, provide a digital status signal to a
controller or PLC, or mechanically disconnect an analog or digital signal, as described below, when an RF link is
lost. Refer to the Specifications section for relay contact rating.
For additional information about RF Link response, refer to Transceiver and I/O Expansion Module Status LEDs on
page 30.
Transceiver Analog and Digital Output Last State Selection
The default state upon loss of RF link for the analog and digital outputs is MAINTAIN LAST STATE. Either an
analog output or a digital output may be wired in series with the RF Link contact to provide a FAULT OFF status
when an RF link is lost. Refer to the Specifications section for relay contact rating.
I/O Expansion Module Wiring Examples
I/O module wiring connections are shown in Figures 12 through 18 on the following pages.

IGWiPS200-1
ASSIGNING AND SETTING I/O MODULE ADDRESSES
Module addresses are 1 through 8, as shown on the module faceplates in Figure 19. The top row in the figure shows
three I/O modules at a location (for example, at a remote location). The lower row shows the complementary I/O
modules at another location (for example, at the control room); transceivers are not shown. Note that the modules in
each complementary pair are set to the same address. For example, the Analog Output Module at the remote location
(yellow faceplate) and the complementary Analog Input Module at the control room (green faceplate) are set to
address 1. The small triangle symbol points to the selected module address.
When assigning I/O module addresses:
•
•
Assign a module address to each complementary pair of I/O modules on a wireless network.
An address may be used for only ONE complementary pair on each wireless network.
If module addresses conflict or are improperly set within a complimentary pair, the STATUS LED will light; see the
Transceiver and I/O Expansion Module Status LED Indications section on page 30.

HAZARD LABEL
A label, similar to that shown here, is included in a WiPS shipment. The installer or
user should post this label in an appropriate, highly visible location near the WiPS
modules. Possible label mounting locations include: on the outside of an enclosure
housing WiPS modules or inside that enclosure adjacent to the modules.
ADDING A REMOTE OR SPARE TRANSCEIVER TO YOUR NETWORK
When WiPS transceivers are ordered, two or more transceivers are supplied as
matched devices, meaning that they share the same electronic identifier and
frequency hopping pattern. This data is stored in a Hop Key. The Hop Key in a
transceiver can be removed and physically transferred to another transceiver
producing a second matched transceiver. The original matched transceiver will
retain its Hop Key data and operate normally even though the Key has been
removed.
The following procedure describes transferring the Hop Key from a matched transceiver to an unmatched
transceiver (e.g. spare transceiver part number TGX:16347-320) thereby producing another matched transceiver.
The newly matched transceiver can then be used as a remote transceiver in a multipoint-to-point system, a spare
transceiver, or a replacement (master or remote) transceiver. Once the Hop Key is installed in the transceiver and
power is applied, the transceiver will memorize the identification, hop frequencies, and hop sequence of the matched
transceiver. When power is removed, it will retain this information, even if the Hop Key is removed. The newly
matched transceiver and the original matched transceiver will communicate with the other matched transceiver(s).
IMPORTANT
When replacing or adding a transceiver to a wireless network, remember that a network
node can have one (1) master transceiver and up to eight (8) remote transceivers.
To Transfer a Hop Key
1. Place an anti-static wrist strap on your wrist and connect the strap’s ground lead to a good ground.
2. If the transceiver is installed, remove power from the transceiver and all I/O connections.
Remove the wired connector blocks from the transceiver; see Figure 5 on page 17 for photographs
(alternatively, label each wire to facilitate reconnection and then disconnect the wires). Physically separate any
connected I/O modules and remove the transceiver from the DIN rail.
3. Remove the faceplate/circuit board assembly locating a rectangular recess near the numbered terminals on the
top of the transceiver cover (see Figure 4 on page 17 and Figure 20 below). With a small flat blade screwdriver,
press the tab in the recess inward and pull that corner of the faceplate outward slightly. Repeat this process at
the bottom of the transceiver. Carefully pull the faceplate/circuit board assembly from the cover.

Location
5. Carefully insert the faceplate/circuit board assembly in its cover until it snaps into place. When inserting the
assembly into its cover, be sure the circuit board enters the card guides in the cover and the circuit board card
edge connector mates with the connector in the cover.
6. Remove the spare transceiver’s cover as described above in step 3.
7. Insert the Hop Key from the original transceiver into the spare transceiver - carefully align the Hop Key
connector with the main circuit board pins. Carefully insert the faceplate/circuit board assembly in the enclosure
– review step 5 as needed to ensure correct orientation.
8. Label the spare transceiver with the Hop Key 5-digit ID number and suffix (M for master, S for remote).
9. If replacing the original transceiver, mount the spare transceiver on the DIN rail and complete all needed
connections. Otherwise install the original transceiver and complete all needed connections.
10. Remove the anti-static wrist strap from your wrist.
When power is applied to the “spare” transceiver, it will memorize Hop Key data - allow a few seconds after power
up for the data to transfer to transceiver memory.
POST INSTALLATION SIGNAL STRENGTH AND LED INDICATIONS
This section describes a method for determining whether received signal strength is adequate. It also provides status
LED indications that will help to assess whether the wireless network is operating properly.
There are no user serviceable parts within a transmitter or receiver. Should service be needed, see the Product
Support section to contact Siemens.
TRANSCEIVER RSSI
RSSI (Received Signal Strength Indicator) is measured using a DC voltmeter between the provided test point and
power supply ground. The test point is accessed by inserting a positive meter probe into the RSSI receptacle on the
face of the transceiver module and connecting the negative meter probe to the module’s Ground terminal.
The RSSI graph in Figure 21 can be used to test the received signal strength. Ideally, the meter reading should be 2.5
Vdc or more. This represents a 90 dB signal loss and typically indicates that the transceiver has 20 dB fade margin
left until loss of link. It is recommended that a transceiver be set up with no less than a 20 dB margin.

TRANSCEIVER AND I/O EXPANSION MODULE STATUS LED INDICATIONS
Power LED
Indicates the presence of power to the module. It is ON when power is present and OFF when
there is no power.
Status LED
When flashing rapidly, it indicates an internal error or a module type mismatch. A module type
mismatch occurs when the module address selection for two different modules (i.e. one digital
modules and one analog module are set to the same address or two pairs of modules are sharing
the same address).
RF Link LED
Flashes once every two seconds when there is no RF link.
Note: At the Master transceiver, an RF Link failure will not be indicated by the master
transceiver or the connected I/O Expansion Modules until the master has lost RF Link with
all Remote transceivers. A Remote transceiver will indicate a loss of RF Link when it
cannot communicate with the master transceiver.
Flashes rapidly when signal strength is marginal (see the RSSI graph in the Servicing section of
this guide.
ON steady indicates an exceptionally strong RF link.
Most systems will flash occasionally indicating the presence of intermittent interference in the
area.
Digital
OFF means that the digital input or output circuit is Open.
Input/Output
ON means that the digital input or output circuit is Closed.

WARRANTY
(a) Seller warrants that on the date of shipment the goods are of the kind and quality described herein and are free of
non-conformities in workmanship and material. This warranty does not apply to goods delivered by Seller but
manufactured by others.
(b) Buyer's exclusive remedy for a nonconformity in any item of the goods shall be the repair or the replacement (at
Seller's option) of the item and any affected part of the goods. Seller’s obligation to repair or replace shall be in
effect for a period of one (1) year from initial operation of the goods but not more than eighteen (18) months from
Seller’s shipment of the goods, provided Buyer has sent written notice within that period of time to Seller that the
goods do not conform to the above warranty. Repaired and replacement parts shall be warranted for the remainder
of the original period of notification set forth above, but in no event less than 12 months from repair or replacement.
At its expense, Buyer shall remove and ship to Seller any such nonconforming items and shall reinstall the repaired
or replaced parts. Buyer shall grant Seller access to the goods at all reasonable times in order for Seller to determine
any nonconformity in the goods. Seller shall have the right of disposal of items replaced by it. If Seller is unable or
unwilling to repair or replace, or if repair or replacement does not remedy the nonconformity, Seller and Buyer shall
negotiate an equitable adjustment in the contract price, which may include a full refund of the contract price for the
nonconforming goods.
(c) SELLER HEREBY DISCLAIMS ALL OTHER WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, EXCEPT THAT
OF TITLE. SPECIFICALLY, IT DISCLAIMS THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY,
FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, COURSE OF DEALING AND USAGE OF TRADE.
(d) Buyer and successors of Buyer are limited to the remedies specified in this article and shall have no others for a
nonconformity in the goods. Buyer agrees that these remedies provide Buyer and its successors with a minimum
adequate remedy and are their exclusive remedies, whether Buyer's or its successors’ remedies are based on
contract, warranty, tort (including negligence), strict liability, indemnity, or any other legal theory, and whether
arising out of warranties, representations, instructions, installations, or non-conformities from any cause.
