Terms and Conditions If a unit is suspected of failure, contact ACCES' Custom er Service de partm ent. Be pre pared to give the unit model number, serial number, and a description of the failure symptom(s). W e may suggest som e sim ple tests to confirm the fa ilure.
Functional Description The W M-IIRO-8 is an intelligent 8-bit parallel digital I/O unit that comm unicates with ACCES’s W ireless Serial Modem via a 900 MH z wireles s co nne ction. T he W ireless Serial Modem con nec ts to a host com puter’s standard C OM port using an RS232 (or RS485) serial com m unication s protoc ol.
Chapter 2: Installation POWER W M-IIRO -8 Plug the provide d AC wall adapto r to any stand ard A C w all outlet. W IRELESS SERIAL MODEM Lap tops : Plug the provide d AC wall adapto r to any stand ard A C w all outlet. Desktops: Ins tall th e provided two sectio n pow er cable.
Chapter 3: Option Selection FILTER RESPONSE SWITCH Jumpers are used to select input filtering on a channel-by-channel basis. W hen jumper FLT0 is installed, additional filtering is introduced for input bit 0, FLT1 for bit 1, etc. This additional filtering must be used whe n AC inputs are a pplied.
Connections The signal assignment to each of the screw terminal board’s pins are as follows: ‘Isolated Input’ Signal ‘Relay Outp ut’ Signal Terminal Block PCB Terminal Block PCB Relay 7 - normally closed Relay 7 - comm on +PWR* Relay 7 - normally open +PWR* Relay 6 - normally closed Relay 6 - comm on...

+PW R*: Power is power from a local power supply. The voltage can be anywhere from 7.5 VDC to 16 VDC. Higher local power, 24 VDC for example, can be used if an external zener diode is used to reduce the voltage applied to RIOD24. (See Temperature de-rating com m ents in the Specification sectio n of this manual under "Power Re quired".) Man ual W M-IIRO -8...
Chapter 4: Software General You received ASII-based software on CD for use with W M-IIRO-8. ASCII programm ing permits you to write app lications in any high level language that supp orts A SC II string fu nction s. The comm unication protocol has two forms: addressed and non-addressed. Non-addressed protocol can be used when only one W M-IIRO-8 is in use.

W rite zeros to every od d bit SEND: RECEIVE: [CR] Read Change-of-state Re ad C OS bit. The pod can set a change-of-s tate flag for any input th at has been configured to do so. This comm and will read then reset that bit. Therefore, this comm and will always return "N[CR]" unless the T c om m and has first been u sed to enable cha nge -of-s tate detec t for an y given b it.

Read and Store Digital Input Data FASTDATA Read digital bits 0-7 as fas t as possible These comm ands read the respective byte of d igital input data and store it in SRAM at the fastest poss ible rate: 21 microseconds between samples. The comm ands will store as much data as the pod can hold: R A M size -1KB yte.
Error Codes The following error codes can be returned from the pod: Invalid channel number (too large, or n ot a num ber. All channel numbers m ust be between 00 and 17 , in hex. (0-24 decima l)) Im prop er Syntax. (Not enough para m eters is the usua l culprit) Channel number is invalid for this task (For example, if you try to output to a bit that is set as an input bit, this error code will occur) Parity error.
• Connectivity: A serial cable connec ts the host com puter’s CO M po rt with ACC ES’s W M-D P-232 m odem , which in turn communicates with the WM-IIRO-8 via a 900 MHz wireless connection. • Intelligence: Type 8051 microcontroller family provides capability of local control.
