Installation
General Safety Instructions
| Caution
This equipment emits RF energy in the ISM (Industrial, Scientific, Medical)
band. Make sure that all medical devices used in proximity to this equipment
meet appropriate susceptibility specifications for this type of RF energy.
---|---
| This equipment is recommended for use in both industrial and domestic
environments. For industrial environments, it is mandatory to use the
functional earth connection to comply with immunity requirements. For domestic
environments, the functional earth must be used if a shielded Ethernet cable
is used, in order to meet emission requirements.
| This equipment contains parts that can be damaged by electrostatic discharge
(ESD). Use ESD prevention measures to avoid damage.
General Information
Make sure that you have all the necessary information about the capabilities
and restrictions of your local network environment before installation.
For optimal reception, wireless devices require a zone between them clear of
objects that could otherwise obstruct or reflect the signal. A minimum
distance
of 50 cm between the devices should also be observed to avoid interference.
The characteristics of the antenna should also be considered when choosing the
placement and orientation of the unit.
See the Anybus Wireless Bolt User Manual for more information.
Mechanical Installation
The device is intended to be mounted on top of a machine or cabinet through an
M50 (50.5 mm) hole using the included sealing ring and nut.
The top mounting surface (in contact with the sealing) must be flat with a
finish equivalent to Ra 3.2 or finer and cleaned and free from oils and
greases.
Tightening torque: 5 Nm ±10 %
| Make sure that the sealing ring is correctly placed in the circular groove
in the top part of the housing before tightening the nut.
---|---
| Always hold the BOTTOM part of the unit when untightening the nut, not the
top part (the cap).
All measurements are in mm.
Connectors
Note the location of the RESET button when the connector is attached to the Wireless Bolt. Pin 1 will be the pin closest to the button.

- If using a shielded Ethernet cable the shield must be unconnected.
- RS-232 and RS-485 cannot be used at the same time.
- Use termination for RS-485 and CAN when required.
Ethernet Cabling
To make an Ethernet connector cable for Anybus Wireless Bolt:
- Cut off one of the connectors on a standard Cat5e or Cat6 Ethernet cable.
- Strip off about 40 mm (1½ inch) of the cable jacket and untwist the orange, orange/white, green and green/white wires. The other wires will not be used.
- Strip off about 7 mm (¼ inch) of the isolation on each wire.
- Push the pin spring release next to each socket on the connector and insert the correct wire end according to 18–pin Connector, p. 7.
Connect the wires from the power supply to the connector in the same way as the Ethernet wiring. Make sure that polarity is not reversed.
RJ-45 Adapter
An Ethernet adapter with an RJ45 female connector can be ordered as an
accessory. Please contact your sales representative for more information.
Digital Input
The digital input can be used to control roaming between Bluetooth access points (NAP). For more information, refer to the AT Reference Guide at www.anybus.com/support.
| If voltage is applied to the digital input for more than 10 seconds the unit
will be reset to factory defaults.
---|---
RESET Button
The RESET button is located on the bottom of the unit.
When the unit is powered on, press and hold RESET for >10 seconds and then
release it to reset to the factory default settings.
Recovery Mode
If the web interface cannot be accessed, the unit can be reset by starting in
Recovery Mode and reinstalling the firmware using Anybus Firmware Manager
II, which can be downloaded from
www.anybus.com/support.
To enter Recovery Mode, press and hold RESET during startup.
| Firmware updates should normally be carried out through the web interface.
Recovery Mode should only be used if the unit is unresponsive and the web
interface cannot be accessed.
---|---
Configuration
Anybus Wireless Bolt is configured via a web interface. Parameters can be set
individually or using pre-configured Easy Config modes.
Advanced configuration can be carried out by issuing AT commands via the web
interface or over a Telnet or RAW TCP connection to port 8080.
Web Interface
The web interface is accessed by pointing a web browser to the IP address of
the unit. The default address is 192.168.0.99.
The configuration settings are described in detail in the User Manual.
Easy Config Modes
By default Wireless Bolt starts in Easy Config mode 4, when:
- the Ethernet connection is not used

- In the web interface of unit 1, activate Easy Config Mode 4. This unit will now be discoverable and open for automatic configuration.
- In the web interface of unit 2, activate Easy Config Mode 5 for WLAN or 6 for Bluetooth. Unit 2 will now discover and configure unit 1 as a client and configure itself as an access point.
Unit 1 will be assigned the first free IP address in the same Ethernet subnet as unit 2.
Adding More Devices
Up to 6 additional clients can be added by repeating the procedure. Each new
client will be assigned the next free IP address in the current subnet.
