IGWiPS200-1 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.
IGWiPS200-1 DANGER Electrical shock hazard Explosion hazard Will cause death or injury. • Remove power from all wires and terminals before working on equipment. • In a potentially hazardous atmosphere, remove power from equipment before connecting or disconnecting power, signal, or other circuit. •...
IGWiPS200-1 Changes or modifications not expressly approved by Siemens will void the user’s authority to operate the equipment. This product is intended for fixed installation applications. In order to comply with FCC/ISC adopted RF exposure requirements, installation of this transmitter system’s antenna must be performed in a manner that will provide at least a six foot (2m) clearance from the front radiating aperture to any user or member of the public.
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.
IGWiPS200-1 Control Room At the control room, there is one master transceiver and complementing I/O: one analog output module, and one digital output module. The total current requirement is 287 mA [75 mA +100 mA + 32 mA + (4 x 20 mA)]. Table 2 WiPS Module Bus Current Requirements Module Bus Current Requirement...
IGWiPS200-1 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.
IGWiPS200-1 Pulse Output Module (See Figure 18 on page 26) 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.
IGWiPS200-1 MOUNTING THE DIN RAIL At each installation site, mount the DIN rail and DIN rail mount modules (e.g. transceiver, I/O modules, power supply) in a NEMA enclosure appropriate for the environment and hazardous area classification. Refer to Figure 3 for transceiver and I/O module dimensions.
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.
IGWiPS200-1 MOUNTING THE 1/4-WAVE WHIP ANTENNA Mount the 3-1/6" (80.4 mm) high, omnidirectional whip antenna , 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.
IGWiPS200-1 Electrical Connections – Power and I/O connections are completed through screw actuated compression terminals. Connector blocks can be removed from a module for wiring, as shown in the two figures below. Insert a small straight-slot screwdriver between a connector block and the faceplate and use a gentle prying motion to separate the connector block from the module.
IGWiPS200-1 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.

IGWiPS200-1 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.

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);...
IGWiPS200-1 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.
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.

IGWiPS200-1 PULSE OUTPUT MODULE DIAGNOSTIC LED’S There are 3 diagnostic LED’s on the pulse output module: Status LED: On solid when I/O is functional and flashing if there is a conflict with another module. Pulse Input 1 and 2 LEDs: These lights will flicker at a varying frequency depending on the frequency of pulses being generated: Frequency Range (Hz) LED Flashing Frequency (Hz)
