UNPACKING
The instrument should be carefully inspected for signs of damage that may have occurred
in transit. In the unlikely case that damage has been sustained, DO NOT use the
instrument, but please retain all packaging for our inspection and contact your supplier
immediately.
3. QUICKSTART GUIDE
There are many ways the IWR-Port can be used, here Sensata shows
QUICKSTART examples of three different systems.
3.1 Example 1
IWR-Port receives values from 8 IWTT thermocouple wireless transmitters and
provides this information to an Ethernet network using a MODBUS TCP protocol.
The IWTT transmitters are configured to be channels 1 to 8.
Refer to the IWTT installation instructions for details.
Connect power and Ethernet cable then switch on (see section 4)
Access the main menu by pushing and holding both buttons until OK is displayed.
Display scaling values will be automatically shown correctly, but if AUTO is off, they can
be changed from the default 0-100% by following the procedure in section 6.3. For each
IWTT channel, parameter 1 will be the thermocouple temperature.
Select the network protocol by following the procedure in section 6.9.
Set up the Modbus slave address by following the procedure in section 6.10.
Set up the Ethernet port by following the procedure in section 8.3.
Measure the age of reading in minutes by following the procedure in section 6.15.
Exit the main menu by holding both buttons until OK is displayed.
Calculate the registers to read by referring to section 9.1
.
3.2 Example 2
A single IWTP provides wireless transmission of a pressure level in a pipe and the
IWR-Port outputs this value as a 4-20 mA output
The IWTP transmitter is configured to be channel 2.
Refer to the IWTP installation instructions for details.
Open the IWR-Port case and slide out the PCB (see section 4)
Set up the output switch to mA (see section 5)
For 4-20 mA output the switch should be off (yellow switch away from PCB edge).
Refit the PCB into the housing and fit the complete unit onto the din rail.
Connect output and power then switch on (see section 4)
Access the main menu by pushing and holding both buttons until OK is displayed.
