Introduction
Installing your XYR 5000 wireless transmitters consists of four basic steps:
Step 1) Power up the Base Radio, set its channel, baud rate and determine the number of Transmitters talking to it.
Step 2) Turn on the Transmitters, configure their RF parameters to match the RF parameters in the Base Radio.
Step 3) Load the Wireless Management Toolkit software on your PC.
Step 4) Set up your output devices to give you 4-20mA or discrete switch outputs.
Beyond these basic steps, there are numerous advanced capabilities of the devices including digital outputs, multiple Base Radio networks etc. that
are covered in more detail in the User Manuals. Full copies of the User Manuals can be found on the enclosed Documentation CD. This CD
contains all the User Manuals for the Transmitters, Base Radio and Output Modules.
It is always a good idea to do your initial set-up in a convenient test area to be sure that the Base Radio and Transmitter(s) are communicating
properly before installing the Base Radio in its final location. Once you have established communications and are ready to move the units to their
final installation area, turn off the Transmitters and power down the Base Radio. If the Transmitters are operational with no Base Radio to talk to,
they will continuously try to communicate with the Base Radio, which decreases battery life.
Step 1. Base Radio Installation
•
Base Radio needs 24VDC power.
•
Base Radio to a PC typically needs a RS-485 to RS-232 converter
•
Installation of the Base Radio should be at least 1 foot away from the nearest physical object. Do not enclose the antenna! It will affect RF
communications.
CAUTION!: Equipment damage possible.
1. Do not connect power to A or B terminals on the Base Radio or Quad Module.
2. Do not connect 2 power supplies to the Base Radio or Quad Module.
3. Do not connect voltage in excess of 30VDC to the Base Radio and or Quad Module.
4. Connect power either to WMT or to Modbus terminal but not to both.
Failure to take these precautions will cause irreparable damage to the internal components of the devices.
From the factory, the Base Radio is set with the RF communication turned off, but the Base Radio should be operational as soon as the power is
applied. You will need to select a channel number and the RF baud rate for the Base Radio. It is a good idea to record the channel number of the
Base Radio to be sure that the various Base Radios on your site are all set to different channels. If you have more than one Base Radio with the
same channel number within radio range of each other, you will get static or transmission cutouts caused by the data conflict.
(If you don't see the Base Radio display light up when you power it up, the Base Radio is probably turned off. To turn on the Base Radio press the
<NEXT> and <ENTER> buttons simultaneously for approximately two seconds, display will flash, then release the push buttons. The default
configuration password is 0000. To accept the password, press <ENTER> four times to accept the zeroes.
Set the following three settings for the Base Radio using the push buttons.
1. Set RF channel (RF CHAN): ___________________________
2. Set Baud Rate (BAUD RT): ____________________________
3. Set the number of Transmitters (NUM WI): __________________
The Base Radio comes with two 120 Ohm Termination Resistors for terminating long RS-485 networks. Please see the Base Radio User Manual,
Section 3.2, for use and installation instructions.
