■ Provisioning work
This subsection describes provisioning work using
FieldMate as the provisioning device.
Provisioning work performs provisioning for each
field wireless device using FieldMate and an
infrared adapter.
If Yokogawa-recommended infrared device is
used for provisioning, distance between the
transmitter glass window and the infrared device
should be within 30cm. For details of Yokogawa-
recommended infrared device, refer to subsection
8.2 “Calibration Instruments Selection”. Perform the
following provisioning tasks.
• Setting provisioning information
• Creating a provisioning information file
1) Setting provisioning information
Set the device tag and network ID using a
FieldMate provisioning function. The device
tag, network ID, and join key are set in the field
wireless device. It is not necessary to input
a join key because FieldMate automatically
generates it.
Setting device tag
The device tag is used for the user to
recognize the Field Wireless Device.
Setting network ID
This is the network ID for the field wireless
network to which the field wireless device is
connected. Set a value from 2 to 65535.
The field wireless device is connected to the
field wireless network corresponding to the
network ID set by provisioning work.
2) Creating a provisioning information file
The following provisioned information is stored
in the provisioning information file.
• Network ID
• Device tag
• EUI64
• Join key
• Provisioner (name of the user who performed
provisioning work by FieldMate)
• Date (Time and date when provisioning was
performed by FieldMate)
This provisioning information file is required to
load from the Field Wireless Configurator to the
Field Wireless Integrated Gateway. Store the
file carefully.
■ Connecting to a field wireless network
The action after installing the battery pack varies
depending on the silence setting.
Mounting the battery pack automatically starts a
search for the field wireless network.
When the Field Wireless Integrated Gateway is
found, the instrument enters the join status.
When the Field Wireless Integrated Gateway is not
found and a specified time based on the silence
mode has elapsed, a cycle of a one-hour pause and
six-minutes search is repeated until the instrument
can join the field wireless network.
For details on the procedure to switch to silence
mode, refer to subsection 7.3.17 “Switching to
Silence Mode.”
