WEEE - Information for users
If the crossed-out bin symbol appears on the equipment or packaging, this means the product must not be included
with other general waste at the end of its working life. The user must take the worn product to a sorted waste center, or
return it to the retailer when purchasing a new one. Products for disposal can be consigned free of charge (without any
new purchase obligation) to retailers with a sales area of at least 400 m
2
, if they measure less than 25 cm. An efficient
sorted waste collection for the environmentally friendly disposal of the used device, or its subsequent recycling, helps
avoid the potential negative effects on the environment and people’s health, and encourages the re-use and/or recycling
of the construction materials.
WiFi 802.11 b/g/n Access Point with two 10-100 Mb/s LAN ports, input
for remote WiFi radio on/off push-button, 220-240 V~ 50/60 Hz power
supply - 2 modules.
This device can generate a 2.4 GHz WiFi network, and the two LAN connections
at the rear can be used to connect this network to an existent LAN, or they can be
used as two wired ports to connect devices without wireless capability. It is possible
to disable only the WiFi radio part using the push-button on the front, or by wiring
a push-button to the pair of spring terminals at the rear if the device is installed in a
location that is not easy to reach.
CHARACTERISTICS
• Supply voltage: 220-240 V~, 50/60 Hz
• Power consumption: 2.5 W
• Frequency range: 2412-2472 MHz
• RF transmission power: < 100 mW (20 dBm)
• Transmission speed:
- LAN connection (Ethernet): 10-100 Mb/s
- WiFi connection: 72.2 Mb/s max with 20 MHz channel and 150 Mb/s with 40
MHz channel (channel width can be set via web browser; default value 20 MHz)
• Wireless Standard: 802.11 b/g/n
• Available Security/Encryption types:
- WPA-PSK, WPA2-PSK, mixed mode
- WEP open system/shared key
• WiFi signal on/of and device reset push-button
• WiFi signal status LED
• Possible to connect remote WiFi signal on/of and device reset push-button
Important: Use a VOLTAGE-FREE CONTACT.
• Ingress protection rating: IP40
• Operating temperature: -10°C to +40°C (indoor use)
CONNECTIONS
• Terminals:
- screw clamp for 220-240 V~ power supply
- spring for the remote push-button connections (voltage-free contact, ES1)
- push-in for the LAN connections (two 100 base-TX Ethernet channels, ES1) with
maximum conductor insulationØ 2.1 mm, 20-26 AWG.
• Cable section:
- for power supply: 0.5–0.75 mm
2
- for remote push-button connection: 0.5 mm
2
• Maximum connection length for the remote push-button: 20 m
• Ethernet cables:
- We recommend using CAT.5e or CAT.6 UTP cables.
- The Access Point has two independent Ethernet ports, each with the two pairs of
conductors needed to operate in 100base-TX mode (colours: green+white/green
and orange+white/orange).
- In the system, the conductors are wired in accordance with the T568B schematic
(see the CONNECTION EXAMPLE figure).
• Maximum Ethernet cable length: 100 m for each RJ45 output.
OPERATION
The device can provide the following types of operation:
1. WiFi Access Point. This configuration implements a WiFi network that starts from
a wired network connection.
2. WiFi network extension. This configuration extends the WiFi network coverage
using the access point as a signal “repeater”; in this case, it is necessary to set
the home router SSID and password in the device.
Note: In the event of variations to the router, change these settings on the Access
Point first, in order to avoid losing the WiFi radio connection.
3. LAN network extension. This configuration extends the wired network to an area
that the cable cannot reach directly. For this configuration, set device 1 to “WiFi
Access Point” mode, setting a different SSID and password from those of the main
router, and set device 2 to “LAN network extension” mode with the same SSID
and password as device 1. If you want to keep the same band available, filter the
devices that can connect to device 1 by enabling the MAC address filter for the
permitted devices. It is possible to set the WiFi signal repeater.
When used to connect to the LAN, the ETH1 and ETH2 ports work as a switch.
Caution:
In general, when repeating the WiFi signal (on WiFi or LAN, such as in operation
2), functionality not guaranteed for sources other than Vimar Access Points as the
operating mode required is not standard and could have different characteristics,
depending on the manufacturer.
Front LED indicators
• LED on: WiFi radio active
• LED off: WiFi radio inactive
• LED flashing: reset in progress
• LED with sequence of two quick flashes - pause: radio WiFi programming in
progress or no Access Point connection (operation types 2 and 3)
• When the device powers up, the LED flashes briefly (the device takes approxi
-
mately 30 s to start).
Front button and remote button
• Brief press: turns WiFi on or off (regardless of the operation type).
• Long press (at least 10 s) within 3 minutes from turning on the device: resets the
device configuration.
In the event of a restart (turning off and on due to a temporary loss of power), the
last WiFi state is restored; if it was set to off, the device restarts with WiFi off, and if
it was set to on, the device restarts with WiFi on. Reset restores the configuration
to the default values set by Vimar.
Default configuration
• Default mode: Access Point
• IP Parameters: (Static IP192.168.1.225, NM: 255.255.255.0)
• Security type: WPA2 PSK
• Default SSID: VIMAR_AP
• WiFi access password: password
• Web access user: admin
• Web access password: password
You can customise the default configuration by accessing the web at the default IP
address and entering you own credentials.
First configuration
To change the default configuration by entering the operating settings or network
address that you want and communicating with the Access Point via LAN or WiFi,
the PC must be linked to the same sub-network as the device, with an address
such as 192.168.1.x. For all details, refer to the manual that can be downloaded
under the corresponding article code on the website www.vimar.com.
INSTALLATION RULES
• Installation should be carried out by qualified staff in compliance with the current
regulations regarding the installation of electrical equipment in the country where
the products are installed.
• Switch off the mains power before installation.
• Install the device at a height of no more than 2 m.
• The power supply must be connected through an easily accessible double-pole
switch with a gap of at least 3 mm between contacts.
• The power supply units constitute a SELV source in observance of the require
-
ments set out in article 411.1.2.2 of the CEI 64-8 standard (ed. 2012).
• To prevent network interference, keep the power supply for active components
and terminal devices (PC, etc.) away from other utilities (e.g. radio, TV, etc.).
• To remove the remote push-button conductor from the terminal during mainte
-
nance, use a tool to delicately press precisely in the corresponding position (see
INSTALLATION fig. 7).
