Specifications

The DSI Wireless Interface Module (WIM)
provides a wireless communication interface
between a Pocket PC, laptop computer or
desktop computer equipped with Bluetooth
®
wireless technology, and any Allen-Bradley
®
product supporting the DSI
™
protocol.
Connectivity includes the entire PowerFlex
®
4-Class Family of drives and peripherals.
PRODUCT HIGHLIGHTS
Multiple Enclosure Styles – The DSI WIM
is offered in two different form-factors to
meet your environment needs:
• NEMA 1 (cat. no. 22-WIM-N1)
• NEMA 4 (cat. no. 22-WIM-N4S)
Versatile Mounting – The NEMA 1 DSI
WIM (shown letf) can be installed in a NEMA
1 DSI HIM bezel (22-HIM-B1) mounted on
the front of an enclosure door. However, if a
DSI HIM is still required and already
occupies DSI Port 2 on the drive, a DSI
splitter cable (AK-U0-RJ45-SC1) can be used.
The NEMA 4 DSI WIM (shown right) is
designed for NEMA 4 and permanent-
mount applications.
Multiple Tool Options – A number of tools
can be used to configure and communicate
with the DSI WIM and connected drive.
These tools include the PowerFlex DSI HIM,
or drive-configuration software such as
Pocket DriveExplorer
™
for Pocket PC,
DriveExplorer
™
or DriveExecutive
™
.
DSI Routing – Connect point-to-point to a
PowerFlex 4-Class drive using the DSI WIM,
and then route out over DSI through the
built-in RS-485 ports to access other drives
on the network (up to 31 drives!). This
eliminates the need for a separate network
connection and interface.
Security – Use the security mode parameter
to enable or disable access and the security
PIN parameter to set a unique 4-digit pass
code number. Together, these parameters
prevent “others” from gaining access to
parameters in the WIM and connected drive
for configuration.
User Configurable Fault Response – Selects the action that the DSI WIM and
drive will take for the following condition:
• Comm Fault Action – network communications have become disrupted
Available actions include:
• Fault – the drive is faulted and stopped
• Stop – the drive is stopped using the current deceleration rate and is not faulted
• Zero Data – the WIM zeros the I/O data transmitted to the drive
• Hold Last – the WIM continues sending the I/O data prior to the fault and the
drive continues in its present state
Diagnostics – Built-in diagnostics allow drive-side troubleshooting of the network
connection using Pocket DriveExplorer for Pocket PC, DriveExplorer or
DriveExecutive. View actual Logic Command/Speed Reference and Logic
Status/Speed Feedback data being transmitted to and from the controller.
Flash Upgradeable – The DSI WIM can be used to flash update its own firmware,
and the firmware of other connected DSI peripherals such as 22-COMM-* adapters
through Pocket DriveExplorer for Pocket PC, DriveExplorer or DriveExecutive to
take full advantage of new firmware features as they become available.
