The wiDR is shipped with all DIP switches in "OFF" position To set the Wireless and Ethernet settings to Factory Default, Refer to Section 7. N/C 1 DEFAULT 2 DHCP 3 N/C 4 4 Position DIP Switch for Ethernet settings 8 Position DIP Switch for Wireless settings ON ON 1 8 OFF Figure 2.
2.2 Network Communication Interfaces 2.2.1 10Base-T RJ-45 Pinout The 10BASE-T Ethernet network (RJ-45) system is used in the wiDR for network connectivity. The 10 Mbps twisted-pair Ethernet system operates over two pairs of wires. One pair is used for receiving data signals and the other pair is used for transmitting data signals. This means that four pins of the eight-pin connector are used.
PART 3 NETWORK CONFIGURATION 3.1 Ethernet (MAC) Address MAC (Media Access Control) address is your computer's unique hardware number. When you're connected to the LAN from your computer, a correspondence table relates your IP address to your computer's physical (MAC) address. The MAC address can be found on the label of your wiDR (see Figure 3.
3.3 DHCP (continued) The wiDR is shipped with DHCP disabled (factory default). If fixed or static IP address is desired, the DHCP must be disabled. The DHCP can be enabled by setting the DIP switch # 3 to the “ON” position Figure 3.2 4 Position DIP Switch Setting the wiDR’s IP address to 0.0.0.0 will also enable DHCP. 3.4 DNS DNS, Domain Name System enables computers and devices to be recognized over a network based on a specific name instead of IP addresses.
3.5 IP Address Every active device connected to the TCP/IP network must have a unique IP address. This IP address is used to establish a connection to the wiDR. Every computer using TCP/IP should have a unique 32-bit address which is divided into two portions, the network ID and the host ID. For instance, every computer on the same network uses the same network ID. At the same time, all of them have a different host ID. For more details about the IP address see Appendix B. 3.5.
3.5.2 Changing TCP/IP Properties on Your Computer Go to your computer’s Control Panel then Network Connections. Pick the network with the proper Ethernet card. Right click and choose Properties Look for Internet Protocol Version 4 (TCP/IPv4), click on it and press Properties Figure 3.3 Network Connections Setup the IP address (in this case, 192.168.1.1) as shown below and press OK You can access the Coordinator’s web server via any internet browser using IP address of 192.168.1.200.
PART 4 NETWORK OPERATIONS This wiDR can be used and configured in several ways, depending on user’s preference and network setup. It can be configured using a Web browser, like Internet Explorer. It can also be configured using the iConnect Configuration Software. If DHCP and DNS servers are configured to exchange information, the connection will be very simple. All you need to do is to enable DHCP on the wiDR (see Section 3.
4.1 iConnect Software The wiDR may also be assigned an IP Address by using the iConnect software. a) Download the iConnect software from the website listed in this manual. b) Install iConnect software on a networked PC. This software is compatible with Windows 95, 98, NT, 2000, and XP. c) Use iConnect to assign an IP address to the wiDR and access its web pages for configuration. You can also use any standard web browser to access the Wireless System’ web pages.
4.1 iConnect Software (continued) d) To access the Wireless System for Configuration: Click on the “View Webpage” button, you will access the Wireless System’s home page, refer to Section 4.3 for details. WIRELESS SENSOR HOME PAGE Figure 4.
4.2 Setting a New IP Address over the Network Besides using the iConnect software, you may use the wiDR’s default IP address to access it and assign a new IP address to it. The wiDR is shipped with a default IP address of 192.168.1.200 and Subnet Mask of 255.255.255.0. You can configure your PC’s Network connection with an IP address that is in the same range as the wiDR’s IP address (192.168.1.x) and connect to the wiDR using a crossover network cable between your PC and the wiDR.
4.3 wiDR’s Configurations and Operations Using a web browser, you should be able to view the wiDR’s homepage. • Start your web browser. • From the browser you type http://wisxxxx using the last four-digits from the MAC address label located on the wiDR (see Figure 3.1), if DHCP and DNS are used. If a static IP address is used, then simply type http://x.x.x.x, where x.x.x.x is the wiDR’s IP address. • The Home Page, will be displayed. Figure 4.

4.5 HTTPget Program The Httpget software is used to send a single HTTP or TCP request to the wiDR. In contrast, the telnet or Hyperterminal programs allow a continuous connection with multiple requests to be sent to the wiDR. Generally HTTPget is used for simply programming an IP address to the wiDR or for quickly obtaining a reading from a End Device. The wiDR must be configured from the “Network Setup” page so that the "TCP Connections" indicates any number between 1 and 5.
4.5.1 HTTPget using Port 2000 (continued) where: -r –S are parameters needed for the the command string Command (See Table 4.2) 192.168.1.135 is an IP address 2000 is a socket port number -C1 closes the TCP connection after 1 second -q displays no error messages once the connection is closed Figure 4.23 HTTPget Example of Polling End Device #2,6,7 Table 4.
4.6 ARP Protocol ARP is the Internet layer protocol responsible for matching or obtaining the MAC (hardware) address that corresponds to a particular IP address. The ARP command allows the user to view the current contents of the ARP cache of the local computer (residing on the same network). Microsoft includes the ARP.EXE utility for viewing and modifying the ARP cache with its Windows products.
4.7 iLog Software This is an Excel application software that can log temperature from the wiDR over the local network (Ethernet) or the internet. a) Download the iLog software from the website listed in this manual. b) Install iLog software on a networked PC.

Part 5 ENVIRONMENT / OPERATING CONDITIONS The End Device and wiDR monitor-controller are designed to be fixed mounted and operated in a clean and dry environment. Care should be taken to prevent the components of your wireless system from being exposed to moisture, toxic chemicals, extreme cold or hot temperature that are outside the specification listed in this manual. The following is a list of basic good practice you should apply when operating this Wireless System. 1.
7. Where possible, try to ensure an uninterrupted line-of-sight between nodes. Avoid obscuring objects (e.g. metal pillars, posts, sign) near the antenna. A close object obscures a wider range of solid angle. 8. It is important to understand that the environment may change over time due to new equipment or machinery being installed, building construction, etc. If new obstacles exist between the End Device and wiDR, antenna angle may need to be re-adjusted and/or the unit has to be relocated. 9. An IEEE 802.
5.2 With Line-of-Sight When installing the wiDR it is important to position your device in such a way to optimize the antenna location within what’s known as the “Fresnel Zone”. The Fresnel Zone can be thought of as a football-shaped invisible tunnel between two locations that provides a path for RF signals between the End Device and the wiDR. Figure 5.2 Fresnel Zone In order to achieve maximum range, the football-shaped path in which radio waves travel must be free of obstructions.
5.3 Without Line-of-Sight When line-of-sight is not possible, signal penetrates and is reflected by different objects to reach the destination. Therefore, it is important to learn about how these materials would affect signal propagation. Depending on the thickness, moisture content and angle of incidence, a wall may allow between 1% and 25% of the radio power to pass through. Metal panel or metalized glass window will not allow much radio power to pass through.

WIRELESS COMMUNICATION (continued) Radio Power Output: 100 mW (20 dBm), 10 mW (10 dBm) Limitations on Equivalent Isotropic Radiated Power (EIRP) levels in the European Community and other countries applies. An improper combination of power level can result in an EIRP above the allowed amount per regulations. See Appendix F. Data Rate: Modulation: Receiver Sensitivity: Bit rate 250 Kp/s; Symbol rate 62.
PART 7 FACTORY PRESET VALUES To set the Wireless and Ethernet settings back to Factory Default do the following to the DIP switches (see Figure 2.10). To set the Ethernet board to Factory Default settings: 1) Put the 4 position DIP switch #2 to ON position (it does not matter if the wiDR is On or Off). 2) Power-cycle the wiDR and wait about 10 seconds until the wiDR fully boots up.

APPENDIX A GLOSSARY User of this manual should be familiar with following definitions: ARP (Address Resolution Protocol) is a protocol for mapping an Internet Protocol address (IP address) to a physical machine address that is recognized in the local network. For example, the IP address in use today is an address that is 32-bits long. In an Ethernet local area network, however, addresses for attached devices are 48-bits long.
Appendix B IP Address An IP address is a unique 32-bit address assigned to a computer and includes: • A network ID number identifying a network. • A host ID number identifying a computer on the network. All IP addresses have been divided into three smaller groups (classes) A, B and C • Class A addresses have 8-bits of network ID and 24-bits of host ID. They can support a large number of hosts, approximately 2 = 16,777,216 computers per network. The IP addresses range in binary from 00000001.xxxxxxxx.
Appendix C IP Netmask IP Netmask or Subnet Mask is a 32-bit pattern of ones and zeros used to determine network portion of an IP address from the host portion of the IP address. Subnet mask is a network ID that is created by borrowing bits from host portion of IP address and using them as part of a network ID. The table below shows a default subnet mask for address Classes A, B, and C.
