Applications
The WRG1830 Wireless Router Gateway (WRG) is a component of the ZFR183x Pro Series Wireless
Field Bus System. The WRG1830 provides BACnet IP connectivity to compatible Johnson Controls
Field Controllers, VAV Controllers, Thermostats, and Sensors over a wireless mesh network.
The WRG1830 has an intuitive, browser-based interface to access network configuration data,
wireless network diagnostics, equipment commissioning tools, and advanced features such as
controller fault detection, alarms, and point configuration.
The optional USB Wi-Fi dongle provides a wireless access point connection to a browser-based user
interface on most mobile devices. You can also access the user interface over an existing Ethernet
network on site.

Installation
Important: The WRG1830 works together with a ZFR1831 Router to become the network's or
PANs wireless cordinator. Mount the ZFR1831 router outside of any metal enclosure and away
from metal obstructions to achieve the best performance. If possible, mount the ZFR1831 as
close to the middle of the wireless mesh network as possible. The ZFR1831 can be mounted up
to 100 feet away from the WRG1830 and wired using common 4 conductor cable or by the RJ12
port. Refer to ZFR1831 Pro Series Wireless Router Installation Guide (Part No. 24-11461-00004) for
more information on mounting and configuring the ZFR1831.
