PDW30 Point-to-Point Wireless Bridge Instruction Manual

4 Introduction The Precision Digital PDW30 gives you a simple, straightforward way to get an analog, discrete, or Modbus® signal from where you have it to where you need it. It’s a point-to-point wireless bridge packaged in a rugged, weather tight housing designed to meet the demands of industrial installations. The PDW30 is simple to order, simple to configure, and easy to trust with your application. Guaranteed ranges assure it will work with your application, or you can send it back - no ques- tions asked. A wireless survey tool is available for those who may require a site survey for longer distances, making it easy to verify the installation will work the first time. The PDW30 takes an analog, discrete, or Modbus® input and wirelessly broadcasts it to a sec- ond PDW30 unit. The secondary unit then recreates that signal at its location. The secondary unit may also transmit its own analog, discrete, or Modbus signals back to the primary unit. Just put the units in the field anywhere you have a signal and power. A wide range of accessories, including mounting kits, antenna-related accessories, and repeat- ers, are available. The antenna may be directly attached or remotely located. High gain direc- tional antennas are also offered.

10 Signal Connector The analog input may be either 4-20 mA, 0-10 V, 0-5 V, or 1-5 V. The appropriate input type must be programmed for each unit. Once the appropriate input type has been programmed, wire the analog signal source to the device as shown in the dia- gram at right. The analog input will not interfere with any existing HART sig- nal on a 4-20 mA current loop. However, the HART signal will not be transmitted wirelessly. 4-20 mA Output Connector The 4-20 mA output corresponds with the analog input signal on the paired wireless device. The analog output signal is al- ways 4-20 mA, regardless of the input type on the other wire- less module. For instance, if the analog input type on the first device was 0-10 V and the input value was 5 V, the second device would output 12 mA. Connect the mA OUT terminals to a device scaled to read a 4-20 mA signal. The analog output is internally powered; no external power supply is required. Figure 4.

11 Digital I/O Connector All digital connections are referenced to ground. The primary unit digital I/O settings determine the settings of the second- ary unit (e.g. if D1 of the primary unit is an input then D1 of the secondary unit in an output). Note: Each connection may be set independently in the de- vice settings as either an input or an output. In the dia- gram to the right, D4 & D3 are digital inputs and D2 is a digital output. Modbus RTU Serial Communications The PDW30 acts as a simple pass-through for Modbus communications. As such, multiple Modbus ena- bled devices may be transmitted wirelessly using the PDW30 Wireless Bridge. Note: Modbus Master must be connected to Primary Wireless Unit. Figure 7.

17 Setup Menu The setup menu consists of analog, digital (discrete), and Modbus® input/output settings, network ID, password, and factory defaults restoration. The primary wireless unit determines network protocol and digital I/O settings for the secondary unit, sim- plifying the setup process. For instance, if a digital connection is programmed to be an input on the pri- mary unit, that same connection will be an output on the secondary unit. Because of this, the secondary wireless unit has fewer menu options than the primary unit.

22 Programming with PDW Manager PDW Manager allows you to program the PDW30 wireless units from a PC with a USB connection. Units connect to a PC via the micro USB connection on their face, underneath the enclosure cover. Use of PDW Manager is required for programming advanced settings such as wireless encryption and analog signal calibration. . Once the software is running, power the unit using a 12-28 VDC power supply and connect the device to the PC using the provided USB cable. The PC will automatically install the appropriate device drivers. Once this has completed, the device will appear in the Device list at the top of the PDW Manager window. Click Connect. The menu options displayed will vary depending on what type of unit is connected. The PDW30 primary unit will have more options than the secondary unit. The image below shows the available options on the configuration tab while the primary unit is connected. PRI RSSI 10 RT LINK OK 12-28 VDC www. .com [email protected] 1.800.561.8187

25 Troubleshooting If you are experiencing difficulties with your wireless installation, consult the troubleshooting steps listed below. For best results, identify the symptoms of the problem you are having and attempt all of the cor- rective actions listed for the particular symptom. Symptom Possible Cause Corrective Action Devices will not connect. Devices have mismatched net- work IDs. • Devices will not connect if they do not have the same network ID. Verify that both devices share the same network ID. Devices are out of range or there are obstacles block- ing the wireless path. • Bring devices closer together to see if it alle- viates the issue. Units will display LINK OK if they are connected. If devices connect, con- sider placing closer together permanently, re- moving any obstacles, or mounting higher. • Ensure antennas are on parallel plane. De- vices that are vertically separated will not have as strong of a connection. • If communicating over distance of miles, con- sider installing PDW30-RNA repeaters or a high gain directional antenna. Multiple wireless devices in the area with the same ID. • If there are multiple PDW30 wireless bridges, verify that each pair has its own unique net- work ID. Encryption keys do not match • If using encryption, ensure that the encryp- tion keys on both devices match exactly. Intermittent signal issues. Signal is too poor. • Check RSSI. If signal is too low, consider moving devices closer together, clearing ob- stacles in wireless path, or mounting devices higher. • Ensure devices are on parallel plane. • If communicating over distance of miles, con- sider installing high gain directional antenna. Temporary obsta- cles are blocking the wireless path. • Temporary obstacles, such as large trucks or heavy equipment, can interfere with wireless path. Consider moving wireless units higher or to an area with less traffic. ? www. .com [email protected] 1.800.561.8187
