SureCross Wireless I/O Network Manual
Connect a GatewayPro to a host system using the industrial Ethernet connection on the DX80 GatewayPro. To connect the GatewayPro
directly to the host system without using an Ethernet switchbox/hub, some host systems may require a crossover cable.
By default, the GatewayPro is configured to use Modbus/TCP server. To use EtherNet/IP, connect the GatewayPro to a managed switch.

DX83 Ethernet Bridge Overview

The DX83 Ethernet Bridge adds the Web page configuration ability to a Gateway-Node wireless network as well as the ability to interface
to Ethernet using Modbus/TCP or EtherNet/IP protocols. A DX83 Ethernet Bridge connected to a DX80 Gateway functions like a DX80
GatewayPro while allowing the Gateway to have I/O points.
There are two basic DX83 models: DX83T and DX83A.
• DX83T. The 'T model acts as a protocol converter only, offering the Modbus/TCP or EtherNet/IP communication protocols.
• DX83A. The 'A model includes DX80 wireless network configuration, Modbus RTU master, Modbus/TCP client/server, Script Basic,
e-mail, data logging, and trending.

Host Systems

Host-connected systems collect I/O data for logging, controlling other devices, or performing calculations.
Host-connected systems can contain up to 15 Nodes (when using Rotary Dial Addressing Mode) or 47 Nodes (when using Extended
Addressing Mode) within a single network. Inputs from Nodes within the network are transmitted to the Gateway, which communicates
the information to a host device for processing. While the Gateway is the master device within the radio network, the Gateway may be a
slave to the Modbus network.
Host-connected DX80 wireless systems are configured using an Ethernet network connection and a common Web page browser. An
Ethernet connection can be established from a DX80 GatewayPro device or a DX83 Ethernet Bridge device serially connected to the
DX80 Gateway.
What is FlexPower®?
Banner's FlexPower® technology supplies a true wireless solution by allowing the device to operate using either 10 to 30V dc, 3.6V
lithium D cell batteries, or solar power. This unique power management system can operate a FlexPower Node and an optimized sensing
device for up to five years on a single lithium D cell.
• The FlexPower Node may be powered from 10 to 30V dc and use an external battery supply module to provide a battery back-up
solution.

Manual.
Connect a DX83 Ethernet Bridge to a host system using the in-
dustrial Ethernet connection on the DX83. To connect the
DX83 directly to the host system without using an Ethernet
switchbox/hub, some host systems may require a crossover
cable.
By default, the DX83 is configured to use Modbus/TCP. To use
EtherNet/IP, you must connect the DX83 to a managed switch
and you must use the Web Configuration tool to select Ether-
Net/IP (see SureCross Wireless I/O Product Manual
Configuration Manual).
