E2.2 Field Wireless Access Point (YFGW510)

There is a case to add a new YFGW510 when adding a new field wireless subnet to the

YFGW410, or making the YFGW510 redundant to enable the Duocast function (see Sub-section

D3.2.4 Field Wireless Networks) of the filed wireless device and make the field wireless route

redundant. The addition procedure is as follows.
1. Configure the device tag name of YFGW510 using the field wireless access point setup tool.
2. For YFGW510 (wireless LAN client model), configure parameters for the wireless LAN ac-

cess point using the field wireless access point setup tool.

3. Install the device at the site, and conduct wiring.
4. Add the target YFGW510 to wireless network configuration data using the Configurator, and

correct information of the related field wireless device.

5. Power on added YFGW510, and download configuration data from the Configurator to the

YFGW410 and related devices.

6. On the Monitor, check that all the devices, including the added device, and communication

paths are normal.

When replacing the YFGW510 that is judged to be defective by the host system warning function

or the Monitor’s analysis result, perform the following procedure.
1. Set the same device tag name as for the defective device to the YFGW510 to be replaced

using the field wireless access point setup tool.

2. Install the device at the site and conduct wiring. Then, turn the power on.
3. On the Monitor, check that all the devices, including the replaced device, are normal.
If wireless network configuration data is configured correctly, the required information is automati-

cally downloaded when the YFGW410 recognizes the start of YFGW510. After this, YFGW510

starts running.

For details on the YFGW510, see the YFGW510 user’s manual (IM 01W02E01-01EN).

E2.3 Field Wireless Management Station

(YFGW410)

There is a case to add YFGW410 in order to make the YFGW410 redundant in a system in which

the field wireless network is managed with a single YFGW410. The outline of the addition proce-

dure is as follows.
1. Stop the existing system.
2. Initialize the database of the YFGW410 to be added.
3. Install the YFGW410, and conduct wiring.

The Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol and IEEE1588v2-compatible model is required to use

the L2SW in the field wireless backbone.

Connect the cable for redundancy of the UNIT1 connector to the existing YFGW410 and the

UNIT2 connector to the added YFGW410.

4. Turn YFGW410 and YFGW510 on.
5. After all devices have been started, start the Configurator with the IP address that was used

to start the Field Wireless Management Console in the single-YFGW410 system. Then,

select “YFGW410 Settings” - “Interfaces” setting window to change the required IP address

from the default to the IP address based on the current environment.
