RAD-802.11-XD, RAD-802.11-XD-BUS and RAD-802.11-XD-WM User Manual – Preface RSPSupply - 1-888-532-2706 - www.RSPSupply.com http://www.RSPSupply.com/p-12973-Phoenix-Contact-2885715-Radio-Ethernet-2.4-GHz-RAD-80211-Radio.aspx...
Ethernet Terminal Server ..................1-10 Basic Features of the IEEE 802.11 Wi-Fi Standard The Phoenix Contact 802.11 Series of radio transceivers are capable of transmitting Ether- net data using transmission methods conforming to IEEE 802.11a/b/g standards. This manual describes the RAD-80211-XD, RAD-80211-XD-BUS and the RAD-80211-XD-WM radios.
1.2.1 RAD-80211-XD The RAD-80211-XD is a DIN rail-mount radio with a protection rating of IP20. See Figure 1-1. This radio features an RJ45 connector for connection of Ethernet devices as well as an RS232 and RS485/422 port, which gives it the capability of sending serial data to another transceiver over the 802.11 radio link.
1.2.2 RAD-80211-XD-BUS The RAD-80211-XD-BUS radio differs physically from the RAD-80211-XD in that it has a 5-pin BUS connector on the side of the unit. See Figure 1-2. This BUS connector is de- signed to allow analog, digital, or frequency input/output modules to be connected. See Figure 1-3.
1.2.3 RAD-80211-XD-WM The RAD-80211-XD-WM (see Figure 1-4) is a wall mount radio rated IP54 for non-hazard- ous locations. For installation in hazardous locations, refer to Section 3, Paragraph 3.2. This radio features splash resistant connectors for the connection of Ethernet and RS-232 and RS-422/485 devices.
In this configuration, it simply provides a stand-alone wireless network for a group of wireless devices. See Figure 1-5. The RAD-80211-XD FAMILY can be used as one of a number of access points connected to an existing Ethernet network to bridge between the wired and wireless environments. Each access point can operate independently of the other access points on the same LAN.
Switch 2186A024-1 Figure 1-5. Example of Access Point/Client Bridge Configurations The wireless bridging function of the RAD-80211-XD family supports several different configurations. The most popular ones are described below. 1.5.1 Point-to-Point Bridging Figure 1-6 shows Point-to-Point bridging of two Ethernet links.
RAD-802.11-XD-WM User Manual – Section 1 Data Encryption and Security The RAD-80211-XD family of radios feature several advanced security technologies. Ac- cess points and clients can be operated using no security (not recommended), WEP, WPA or WPA2 (802.11i). In Bridge mode, no security or AES encryption can be used. Some level of security is recommended.
Access to the management screens for the RAD-80211-XD family of radios requires that you enter an ID and password. The factory defaults are: Note The username and password are case sensitive.
One RAD-80211 radio must be selected to function as the Modbus/TCP Gateway. All RAD-80211-XD-BUS radios in emulation mode will function as Modbus slaves. If the network consists of access points (AP) and clients, the AP must be the Modbus/TCP Gate- way and the clients will be Modbus slaves.
The exceptions include distances of less than 300 feet where no test is required in 90% of applications, and where a test is done with a functional Phoenix Contact radio set to the desired wireless mode (802.11a, b or g), transmit data rate and transmit power setting.

RAD-802.11-XD, RAD-802.11-XD-BUS and RAD-802.11-XD-WM User Manual – Section 2 Antenna Mounting Considerations The antenna manufacturer’s installation instructions must be strictly followed for proper operation of a directional or omnidirectional antenna. Using proper mounting hardware and bracket ensures a secure mounting arrangement with no pattern distortion or de-tuning of the antenna.

In the 2.4 GHz band, the maximum EIRP (Effective Isotropically-Radiated Power) is limited to 4 W (36 dBm).

RAD-80211-XD, RAD-80211-XD-BUS and RAD-80211-XD-WM User Manual – Section 6 If the serial stream is assigned to I/O modules on a RAD-80211-XD-BUS and the Modbus node address of the radio matches that in the packet, a standard Modbus RTU response packet will be generated. The analog I/O values are stored in the 4xxxx registers, the digital input values are stored in the 1xxxx series registers, and the digital outputs are controlled by writing to the 0xxxx registers.
When the I/O is used as a stand-alone remote I/O station, the radio is typically configured as a client. d. If the PLC/Modbus master connects to a RAD-80211-XD-BUS radio in order to use its I/O as additional locally mounted I/O, the radio can be configured as a wireless access point or a bridge mode.
