System Operation Considerations
This section explains the steps to install a data acquisition system that uses wireless
devices. Write down the settings that you decide to use for each item in the parameter
sheet, and refer to them when configuring or installing wireless devices.
(1) Confirming the components of the installation environment
(2) Choosing the areas to use wireless communication
(3) Selecting the required devices and their quantity
(4) Reviewing the wireless device parameter values
5.1
Confirming the Components of the Installation Environment
Confirm the installation locations of the data acquisition devices, sensors, and the like in the
wireless device installation environment and their connection destinations. Further, confirm
the types and the number of devices that are required, the serial interface specifications,
and the RS485 protocol type.
If there are multiple data acquisition devices that are installed, perform the above
confirmation procedures for each data acquisition device.
As an example, we will consider designing a wireless communication network using wireless
devices in a building with data acquisition devices and sensors installed as shown in Fig.
5.1.
