    WSG30 Users Manual ChAptER 1: iNtRodUCtioN Congratulations on your purchase of the Sensaphone WSG30. This device can work with up to 30 Wireless sensors to monitor Temperature, Humidity, Water on the floor, Power, Dry Contacts, and 4-20mA signals. The sensors use mesh networking technology to create multiple communication paths between the sensors and the WSG30 to ensure reliable communications.

  • Page 9: Chapter 2: Installation

    ChAptER 2: iNStALLAtioN phYSiCAL dESCRiptioN The WSG30 is housed in a plastic 7.6”w x 5.1”h x 2.0”d enclosure and is suitable for wall mounting. dEvICE layout The front panel contains an 80 character LCD and a push button keypad. The top of the unit has an antenna connector and the bottom contains the power and Ethernet connections.

    4) Unplug the Power Supply, then press OK (Enter). BattERy REplaCEmEnt The WSG30 uses one (1) 6V 1.3AH rechargeable battery (included) for backup power in the event that main power fails. The unit will constantly recharge the battery. In the event you need to replace the battery, be sure to use battery part # BAT-0020 (see Appendix C: Accessories) to ensure compatibility.

    Disable DHCP and set a fixed IP address. Enter the Gateway, Subnet Mask and DNS settings as well. The Wireless channel will default to 1. If you have more than one WSG30, you must set a different channel number for each. Click Save when finished.

  • Page 13: Parameter Descriptions

    There are three additional methods listed below to configure the network settings in the WSG30 . These all assume that you do not have a DHCP server and, as a result, the WSG30 has configured itself to the default address of 192.168.1.250. Note that all three options below require you to modify the Network settings on your computer.

  • Page 14: Chapter 4: Configuring Wireless Sensors

    ChAptER 4: CoNFigURiNg WiRELESS SENSoRS The WSG30 allows you to configure up to 30 wireless sensors. Sensors are available to monitor a variety of environmental conditions - see Appendix B for a complete list. A successful installation will require some planning to make sure everything will work smoothly. The WSG30 and sensors utilize mesh networking technology to ensure reliable wireless communications, but this requires that you follow a few rules during the setup process.
  • Page 15 At least two sensors will have to be configured as routers. The routers should be located an equal distance between the farthest sensor and the WSG30, and centrally located to minimize the distance between sensors in the general area of the router and the WSG30. The routing sensors should be added to the system first.

  • Page 16: Adding Wireless Sensors

    At least three sensors will have to be configured as routers. The routers should be located an equal distance between the farthest sensor and the WSG30, and centrally located to minimize the distance between sensors in the general area of the router and the WSG30. The routing sensors should be added to the system first.

  • Page 17: Deleting Wireless Sensors

    In end-point mode the sensor consumes minimal power, which allows it to run on batteries. In router mode the sensor will form a wireless network with the WSG30 and other sensors to increase communi- cation reliability and extend the range of your sensor network. In router mode you must use an external power supply, in which case the batteries serve as back-up power in the event of a power failure.

    The web page can be accessed by opening your internet browser (Internet Explorer, Firefox, Safari, …) and entering the IP address of your WSG30 (see the Network Configuration section in Chapter 1 for assistance). The menu items along the blue bar at the top of screen will help you locate specific programming parameters and features.

    SMTP port number in the event that your internet service provider is using a nonstandard port. Port 25 is the standard port number, but 587 is also becoming more common as well. Note that the WSG30 will not work with SMTP servers that require TLS or SSL encryption. As a result, it will not work with web-based e-mail providers such Gmail, Hotmail, Yahoo!Mail, or AOL.

  • Page 23 Mode: This setting specifies the operating mode of the sensor. An Endpoint will periodically send its data back to the WSG30 based on the programmed sampling rate and then go to sleep. An Endpoint can be battery powered for up to two years. A Router will act as a wireless network node which will expand the range of your sensor network.
  • Page 24 Alarm Reset Time: This is the time allowed for an alarm’s fault condition to be corrected before the WSG30 resets (reactivates) the alarm and begins the message delivery process all over again. It is recom- mended that this be set to no lower than 30 minutes to prevent numerous messages from being sent.

  • Page 25: Datalogging Capacity

    • If you log 15 sensors at the same interval, the WSG30 will store 238,000 samples of each sensor • If you log 30 sensors at the same interval, the WSG30 will store 243,000 samples samples of each sensor Once the datalogger is full it will start overwriting the oldest records.

    A check mark indicates that alarm delivery is active for that time period. ContaCt pRogRammIng The WSG30 allows you to program up to 4 Contacts per Profile. The Contacts can be either: E-mail, SMS-Text Message, or SNMP Trap. Each contact can have a programmable Schedule so that you only receive messages when your Contact schedule is enabled.
