The device must be connected to ground (functional earth ground) via the metal part of the housing. If this is not possible, ensure a low-resistance ground connection (functional earth ground) for the shielding of the Ethernet cable. 107390_en_03 PHOENIX CONTACT DOWNLOADED FROM WWW.SCATTS.CO.UK...
DOWNLOADED FROM WWW.SCATTS.CO.UK FL WLAN 1100/1101/2100/2101 FL WLAN 110x and FL WLAN 210x: it is recommended that the base plate of the device is grounded by connecting the mounting screws to a grounded metal surface (functional earth ground/FE). If this is not possible, e.g., because the device is installed on a plastic surface, you must make sure that the Ethernet cable is properly shielded.

The devices in the FL WLAN 110x/210x series have internal antennas for WLAN commu- nication. The device should therefore be mounted on the outside of metal objects to en- sure that the WLAN signal can be transmitted. 107390_en_03 PHOENIX CONTACT DOWNLOADED FROM WWW.SCATTS.CO.UK...
DOWNLOADED FROM WWW.SCATTS.CO.UK FL WLAN 1100/1101/2100/2101 In order to optimize the device's performance with respect to transmission, the same rules that apply when mounting antennas should be observed. An important criterion here is the lateral distance from conductive surfaces. These surfaces can influence the radio propaga- tion (directional characteristics of the antenna) due to reflections and interference.
NOTE: Do not open or modify the device. Do not repair the device yourself; replace it with an equivalent device instead. Repairs may only be carried out by the manufacturer. The manufacturer is not liable for damage resulting from noncompliance. 107390_en_02 PHOENIX CONTACT DOWNLOADED FROM WWW.SCATTS.CO.UK...

The device can be configured by setting all parameters via the web interface (see “Startup via the web interface” on page 27) or the Command Line Interface (CLI). In order to do this, the device must first be assigned an IP address. The factory default setting is BootP. 107390_en_02 PHOENIX CONTACT DOWNLOADED FROM WWW.SCATTS.CO.UK...

This software can be downloaded free of charge at phoenixcon- tact.net/product/2702534.
Adjust the IP parameters according to your requirements. If inconsistencies are no longer detected, a message appears indicating that a valid IP ad- dress has been set. • Click on the “Next” button and perform a voltage reset. 107390_en_02 PHOENIX CONTACT DOWNLOADED FROM WWW.SCATTS.CO.UK...
