Chapter 1 – Product Description and

Specifications

Introduction

The MultiConnectTM WF device server connects serial devices to an IP network via 802.11b wireless

networking. It enables you to build wireless networking into virtually any device allowing for remote

monitoring, control and configuration. The device server integrates a complete TCP/IP protocol stack.

It can make your existing and next generation device, machine or system, IP-ready while you focus on

developing its core features.

Benefits

•Serial-to-802.11b wireless networking

•Flexible IP protocol stack

•Compact, rugged industrial chassis

General Safety

The MultiConnectTM WF device server is designed and intended to be used in either fixed or mobile

applications. In the “Fixed” application, the device is physically secured at one location and not easily

moved to another location. In the “Mobile” application, the device may be regularly moved to different

locations.

Caution! Maintain a separation distance of at least 20 cm (8 inches) between the transmitter’s

antenna and the body of the user or nearby persons. The adapter is not designed for, nor intended

to be, used in applications within 20 cm (8 inches) of the body of the user. Such uses are strictly

prohibited.

Radio Frequency Interference

Avoid possible radio frequency (RF) interference by carefully following the safety guidelines below.

•Switch OFF the MultiConnectTM WF device server when in an aircraft. It may endanger the

operation of the aircraft.

•Switch OFF the MultiConnectTM WF device server in the vicinity of gasoline or diesel-fuel pumps or

before filling a vehicle with fuel.

•Switch OFF the MultiConnectTM WF device server in hospitals and any other place where medical

equipment may be in use.

•Respect restrictions on the use of radio equipment in fuel depots, chemical plants, or where

blasting operations are in progress.

•There may be a hazard associated with the operation of your MultiConnectTM WF device server in

the vicinity of inadequately protected personal medical devices such as hearing aids and

pacemakers. Consult the manufacturers of the medical device to determine if it is adequately

protected.

•Operation of theMultiConnectTM WF device server in the vicinity of other electronic equipment may

cause interference if the equipment is inadequately protected. Observe any warning signs and

manufacturers’ recommendations.

Chapter 1 – Product Description and Specifications

Multi-Tech Systems, Inc. MultiConnect WF User Guide (S000447A) 5

Handling Precaution

All devices must be handled with certain precautions to avoid damage due to the accumulation of static

charge. Although input protection circuitry has been incorporated into the devices to minimize the effect of

this static buildup, proper precautions should be taken to avoid exposure to electrostatic discharge during

handling and operation.

Chapter 2 – Installation and Cabling

Attaching the MultiConnect WF to a Fixed

Location

The MultiConnect WF is design to be used on the desktop or to be panel-mounted. To attach the bracket

for panel-mounting, following these steps:

1. Typically, it is mounted against a flat surface with two mounting screws. Drill the mounting holes

at the desired location. The mounting holes must be separated by 4 -15/16 inches center-to-

center.

2. To attach the mounting bracket, slide it into the corresponding slot on the back of the

MultiConnect chassis.

3. Attach the adapter to the surface with two screws.

*Warning:

When supplying power to the RS-232 connector of the adapter,

make sure the power does not feed the DTE device.

Optional – Directions for Direct DC Power

Connection

•Connect a fused DC power cable into the

power connector on the MultiConnect WF

device server.

•Then attach the two wires at the other end of

the fused cable to a DC fuse/terminal block on

a vehicle in which you are mounting the

MultiConnect WF device server.

•Connect the red wire to the "+" positive and

the black wire to the "–" negative. Be sure the

GND connection is correct.

Warning: Over-voltage protection is

provided on the device. To ensure

complete protection, you may want to

add additional filtering to the DC input.
