Reference Manual 00809‐0200‐xxxx, Rev AA April 2010 Wireless Considerations Power Up Sequence The Smart Wireless Field Link and Wireless I/O should be installed and functioning properly before the power modules are installed in any wireless field devices. Wireless field devices should also be powered up in order of proximity from the Field Link beginning with the closest. This will result in a simpler and faster network installation. Mounting Location The Field Link should be mounted in a location that allows convenient access to the host system network (wireless I/O) as well as the wireless field device network. Find a location where the Field Link has optimal wireless performance. Ideally this will be 15‐25 ft. (4,6 ‐ 7,6 m) above the ground or 6 ft. (2 m) above obstructions or major infrastructure. Figure 1. Mounting Location Antenna Position The antenna should be positioned vertically, either straight up or straight down, and should be approximately 3 ft. (1 m) from any large structure, building, or conductive surface to allow for clear communication to other devices. Figure 2. Antenna Position ...

Reference Manual 00809‐0200‐xxxx, Rev AA April 2010 Conduit Plug The temporary orange plugs should be replaced with the conduit plugs that are included using approved thread sealant. Conduit Plugs Figure 3. Intended Use The Field Link must be used in conjunction with a network manager or network gateway. The Field Link then functions as a translator between the wired network and a wireless field network. Figure 4. Example System Architecture ...
Reference Manual 00809‐0200‐xxxx, Rev AA April 2010 STEP 1: Physical Installation Pipe Mounting 1. Insert larger U‐bolt around 2” pipe/mast, through the saddle, through the L shaped bracket, and through the washer plate. 2. Use a ½‐in socket‐head wrench to fasten the nuts to the U‐bolt. 3. Insert smaller U‐bolt around base the Field Link and through the L shaped bracket. 4. Use a ½‐in socket‐head wrench to fasten the nuts to the U‐bolt. Figure 5. Mounting Power and Data Wiring 1. Remove housing cover labeled “Field Terminals. “ 2. Connect the positive power lead to the “+” power terminal and the negative power lead to the “‐” terminal. 3. Connect the Data + lead to the “A (+)” terminal and the Data – lead to the “B (‐)” terminal. 4. Plug and seal any unused conduit connections. 5. Replace the housing cover. Figure 6. Smart Wireless Field Link Terminal Diagram Note: This device has been designed with double/reinforced insulation between the power terminals and the housing. ...
Reference Manual 00809‐0200‐xxxx, Rev AA April 2010 Grounding The Field Link enclosure should always be grounded in accordance with national and local electrical codes. The most effective grounding method is a direct connection to earth ground with minimal impedance. Ground the Field Link by connecting the external ground lug to earth ground. The connection should be 1 Ω or less. STEP 2: Verify Operation Add local display screens here. Power‐Up Sequence Upon applying power to the Field Link the LCD meter will activate and display a series of startup screen. The following screens are displayed during startup. 1. Startup Screen 1 – All segments on 2. Startup Screen 2 – Device Identification 3. Startup Screen 3 – Tag 4. Startup Screen 4 – Status Normal Operation After the initial startup screens the Field Link will cycle through several periodic screens. 1. Electronics Temperature Screen 2. Percent Range Screen 3. Wired Interface Usage 4. Radio Interface Usage The field link will continue to rotate through each periodic screen through the course of normal ...
