Page 5: Introduction
1 INTRODUCTION Summary - This device (software and hardware) adds a Wi-Fi interface to any Yamato products that use a VS- 4, VS-6 operating in VS-4 mode, or CR5A Planar controller board. Examples include all DKN series ovens and FO series muffle ovens. It enables operators and managers to remotely interact with an oven located anywhere on a provisioned local network (or the internet). -

VS-4/6 Wi-Fi Bridge 2 INSTALLING THE WI-FI BRIDGE ON A DKN-XXX OVEN 1. VS-4 Wi-Fi Bridge modules: The Wi-Fi Bridge is implemented as two interconnected modules: One module is installed inside the oven, next to the Planar board, and another module is installed outside the oven, next to the Option Terminal Block located on the right side of the oven. -
Page 7: Control And Rf Module Installation
WI-FI Network Bridge um-R1.3 2.1.2 Control and RF module installation The control and RF module contains a microcontroller and a 2.4 GHz b/g/n Wi-Fi radio. It needs to be placed outside of the oven enclosure to increase Wi-Fi communications range (antennas don’t work well inside shielded metal boxes.) Connect this module to the cable coming from the Power supply module and attach it to the side or top of the oven. -

VS-4/6 Wi-Fi Bridge 3 CONNECTING THE BRIDGE TO A WI-FI NETWORK 2. Choosing a Wi-Fi access point. Although the Wi-Fi Bridge has a powerful radio, it conforms to international standards for EMI emissions, which limit the maximum radio power that can be used. That being said, the maximum recommended distance between the Wi-Fi Bridge and the Wi-Fi access point it will connect to is 50 meters on an unobstructed area. -
