Emotron VS10 - WLAN Basic Settings

270 01-6203-01R3, CG Drives & Automation
10.3.2. WLAN basic settings
The WLAN functionality can be configured via the following parameters.
Preconditions
WLAN module has been plugged onto the interface X16 on the front of the inverter.
Details
• The WLAN module can be connected and removed during operation.
• The WLAN module can either create an own WLAN network (access point mode,
default setting) or implement itself as a WLAN client in an already existing WLAN
network. For details see the following subchapters.
• The WLAN connection is encrypted. The WLAN encryption can be selected in
0x2441:009.
• 0x2441:012 can be used to set that the name of the WLAN network, called SSID, is not
visible for other WLAN devices. As a result, the number of WLAN networks displayed
on smartphone or PC can be reduced.
• Two data sources are possible for the WLAN settings: Inverter and WLAN module.
• Data source inverter: The WLAN settings saved in the inverter are used. Each
inverter has its own WLAN settings.
• Data source WLAN module: The WLAN settings saved in the WLAN module are
used. In this "stand-alone" mode, the WLAN module can be plugged onto another
inverter and then be used with the same settings (irrespective of the WLAN
settings of the inverter).
• The data source is activated with 0x2440.
• The currently active data source is displayed in 0x2442:004.
