WI-GTWY-9-DE1 Configuration via W-Series Configuration Software:
1. Setup MAC ID and baud rate:
The WI-GTWY-9-DE1 should be given a unique ‘MAC ID’ (i.e. node address) on the network –
allowable values are 1 – 63. Three different baud rates are available, the selection should match that
of the network. The screen shot above shows these settings in software. The WI-GTWY-9-DE1 also
provides an option for these settings to be applied via external DIP Switches, for further details refer
to the WI-GTWY-9-DE1 manual.
2. Network Configuration (Fieldbus Mappings):
I/O data from either the radio network or local I/O must be made available to the DeviceNet
network via fieldbus mappings in the WI-GTWY-9-DE1. Fieldbus mappings allow the flexible
allocation of I/O from the Radio Interface to an internal database (Fieldbus Interface) which is then
the connection point for I/O transferred over the DeviceNet Network. Details on configuring the
radio network can be found in the WI-GTWY-9-DE1 User Manual.
Referring to the block diagram provided in the summary section, we will first make the required
fieldbus mappings for the input data using fieldbus write mappings. Select New Fieldbus Mapping
under the ‘Fieldbus Config’ section to display the mapping screen shown below. In this example,
we use the word transfer mode to transfer 10 I/O registers (20 bytes) to the Fieldbus Interface IN
Area. The I/O Input Instance is selected as 1.
