Installation 7 (40) 3 Installation 3.1 Safety Caution This equipment emits RF energy in the ISM (Industrial, Scientific, Medical) band. Make sure that all medical devices used in proximity to this device meet appropriate susceptibility specifications for this type of RF energy. This product is recommended for use in both industrial and domestic environments. For industrial environments it is mandatory to use the functional earth connection to comply with immunity requirements.
Installation 3.3 8 (40) Mechanical Installation The device is intended to be mounted on top of a machine or cabinet through an M50 (50.5 mm) hole using the included sealing ring and nut. The top mounting surface (in contact with the sealing) must be flat with a finish equivalent to Ra 3.2 or finer and cleaned and free from oils and greases. Tightening torque: 5 Nm ±10 %. Make sure that the sealing ring is correctly placed in the circular groove in the top part of the housing before tightening the nut.
Installation 3.4 9 (40) Connector The 18-pin connector is common for all models of the Anybus Wireless Bolt. Some pins may have a different function depending on model. Unused pins should not be connected. Fig. 2 Connector The location of the RESET button can be used as a reference for the pin numbering when the connector is attached to the Wireless Bolt. Pin 1 will be the pin closest to the button.
Installation 3.5 10 (40) Ethernet Cabling To make an Ethernet connector cable for Anybus Wireless Bolt: Fig. 3 1. Cut off one of the connectors on a standard Cat5e or Cat6 Ethernet cable. 2. Strip off about 40 mm (1½ inch) of the cable jacket and untwist the orange, orange/white, green and green/white wires. The other wires will not be used. 3. Strip off about 7 mm (¼ inch) of the isolation on each wire. 4.
Installation 3.7 11 (40) RESET Button Fig. 4 RESET button The RESET button is located on the bottom of the unit. When the unit is powered on, press and hold RESET for >10 seconds and then release it to reset to the factory default settings. Recovery Mode If the web interface cannot be accessed, the unit can be reset by starting in Recovery Mode and reinstalling the firmware using Anybus Firmware Manager II, which can be downloaded from www.anybus.com/support.
Configuration 12 (40) 4 Configuration 4.1 General Anybus Wireless Bolt should normally be configured via the web interface. Parameters can be set individually or using one of the pre-configured Easy Config modes. The web interface is accessed by pointing a web browser to the IP address of the Wireless Bolt. The default address is 192.168.0.99. The computer accessing the web interface must be in the same IP subnet as the Wireless Bolt. Fig.
Configuration 13 (40) 4.2 Web Interface 4.2.1 System Overview Fig. 6 System Overview page The System Overview page shows the current settings and connection status for the wired and wireless interfaces. The different parameters are explained in the descriptions of each settings page in this manual. The Help page describes AT commands that can be used for advanced configuration. Save and Reboot This button will be enabled if the unit must be restarted to apply a change.

Appendix B: Wireless Technology Basics B 36 (40) Wireless Technology Basics Wireless technology is based on the propagation and reception of electromagnetic waves. These waves respond in different ways in terms of propagation, dispersion, diffraction and reflection depending on their frequency and the medium in which they are travelling. To enable communication there should optimally be an unobstructed line of sight between the antennas of the devices.
