4. InstallingtheTransducer
Information on the environment, mounting the transducer, interface plate design, and routing the transducer cable
can be found in the F/T Transducer Installation and Operation manual (9620-Transducer Section). The transducer
must be monitored during installation for gage saturation errors. Refer Section 3.7—Establishing a Connection to
the Wireless F/T and Monitoring Data to monitor the transducer during installation.
CAUTION: Do not exceed the single-axis overload value of the transducer. Smaller
transducers can easily be irreparably damaged by apply small loads using tools (moment arm
increases applied loads) when mounting the transducer. Always monitor the transducer using
the demo application for Gage saturation errors during installation. Stop applying force to the
transducer and wait until the error clears to continue installation. If error does not clear, it may
indicate loss of power or the overload value has been exceeded.

5. Command Interface
The WNet unit must be installed, setup and congured prior to using any command interfaces. Refer to Section 3—
Installation for Installation, setup, and conguration of the WNet unit.
5.1 Communication Interfaces
The Wireless F/T can be setup and congured using a text-based command prompt console interface.
The Console Interface can be accessed two ways:
• Commands can be sent over the USB Connection over the wireless connector as a virtual serial port
• Telnet server listening on TCP Port 23
5.2 UPD Interface
The WNET unit listens on UDP port 49152 for commands. Any streaming UDP packets are sent to the
current Destination IP address until a UDP command is received. When the WNET unit receives a UDP
command from any IP address, the UDP packets are sent to whichever port the request came from.
The UDP server uses binary format for commands and responses. All multi-byte values use big-endian,
which is the same as network order.
5.3 UDP Command Format
All UDP commands to the WNET unit have the following format:
Table 5.1—UDP Command Format
Field Name Format Length(bytes) Comments
length unsigned short 2 Total length of this message, including CRC
sequence unsigned char 1 Sequence number. Used to identify missing
messages.
command unsigned char 1 Command number
payload unsigned char(s) length - 6 Command operands (if any)
crc unsigned short 2 See Appendix A – UDP Command CRC
Calculation, for details
This format can be rendered into C as:
struct udp_RecvFrame_S
{
unsigned short length; // Total length of this message
unsigned char sequence; // sequence number of this message
unsigned char command; // command number
unsigned char parameters[0]; // command operands
} __attribute__ ((__packed__));
These commands are currently implemented:
Table 5.2—Current Command Implementation
Number Name Comments
1 Start streaming Start streaming for either a xed or unlimited number of
packets
2 Stop streaming Stops streaming
3 Set packet transmission
rate Sets packet transmission rate. All transducers use the
same rate.
4 Ping Sends a no-payload Pong response back to the sender.

FILTER [* | Transducer 1 -> 6] [MEAN | MEDIAN | IIR] [taps | tc] => Set
lter type & number of taps or time constant
This command allows you to set the lter type and the number of taps in the lter that the ADC inputs
pass through for any or all Transducers. The default is 1 (no ltering). MEAN is a simple running mean,
which is a form of low-pass lter. MEDIAN is a simple running median, which is another form of low-pass
lter. Note that a 31-tap MEAN lter running in all 6 Transducers executes in about 65 µS, while a 31-tap
MEDIAN lter in all 6 Transducers executes in about 480 µS, on average. This means that the maximum
possible packet rate (RATE) is lower if you use a MEDIAN lter as compared to a MEAN lter of the
same size. If a number of taps is not given, the number of taps is not changed. For IIR lters only, the time
constant of the lter is the “number of taps” samples. Taps range from 1 to 32. Time Constants range from 1
to 32767. This command will also give you a report of the current lter settings:
Tr Filter Taps TC
-- ------ ---- --
1 MEAN 32
2 MEDIAN 31
3 MEDIAN 15
4 IIR 32
5 IIR 64
6 IIR 128
FILTER S
This command displays statistics on how long it is taking to generate packets. This includes the time that
ltering takes. For example:
>lter s
TimeConstant = 2048 Packet generation time mean = 37.163 uS stdev = 0.197 uS
LPF [* | Transducer 1 -> 6] [taps 1 -> 32] => Set MEAN low-pass ltering
& number of taps
This command allows you to enable a running-mean low-pass lter, along with its number of taps. This
is the lter that the ADC inputs pass through for any or all Transducers. The default is 1 (no ltering).
This command will also give you a report of the current lter settings. If a number of taps is not given, the
number of taps is not changed. This command is the equivalent of issuing:
FILTER [* | Transducer 1 -> 6] MEAN [taps 1 -> 32]
MYIP [n.n.n.n] => Set My IP
This command sets the IP address of this WNET unit.
NET AP => Display Access Points found in the last scan

NET DNS [up to 90 characters] => Get IP address(es) of given URL
This command allows you to nd the IP address(es) associated with a given URL. It tells you if network that
you are connected to has connectivity to the wider internet. For example:
>net dns microsoft.com
WLAN: 03:16:39
## IP-Address
-- ----------
1 64.4.11.37
2 65.55.58.201
NET KEY [up to 64 characters] => Set encryption key
This command sets the network key (sometimes called PSK) that is used with WEP, WPA, and WPA2
encryption. For WEP it must be exactly 5 or 13 characters (direct WEP entry in hex is not supported). For
WPA and WPA2 it must be no more than 64 characters.
NET MASK [n.n.n.n] => Set Subnet Mask
This command sets the subnet mask. A subnet mask is a 32-bit mask that is used to determine what subnet
an IP address belongs to. If you AND a packet’s IP address with the subnet mask and the result is the same
as the original IP address, the IP address is in the local subnet. If the result is different from the original IP
address, the IP address is in some other subnet, so the packet must be sent to the gateway device for further
routing.
NET MODE [CLIENT | DIRECT] => Set Client or Direct operating mode
This command selects either client mode (connect to an existing WiFi™ access point) or WiFi Direct™
mode.
NET UDPACT [BUFFER | DROP] => Packet action during ow control
This command controls the action that the unit takes while the WLAN Module has told it to stop sending
packets.
a. BUFFER means that the unit will buffer data packets during the ow control period, and then send
them when it is possible to do so. Data will only be lost if the ow control period lasts longer than
available storage for the buffer. This mode minimizes missing data, and is preferred for data logging
applications.
b. DROP means that the unit will drop all data packets generated during the ow control period.
Packet transmission will resume at the end of the ow control event. This mode minimizes latency,
and is preferred for robotic control applications.

RATEADC [rate: 5 -> 4000 Hz] => Set ADC read rate
This command allows you to set the rate at which the ADCs are read. The default is 2500 Hz, or one
ADC read every 0.4 mS = 400 µS. Reading the ADCs more often results in more accurate ADC reads if
smoothing is in use, at the cost of using more compute time.
RATE [rate: 1 -> 2500 ADC reads] => Set packet transmit rate
This command allows you to set the rate at which UDP packets are sent to the destination IP address. The
rate is set in terms of multiples of the ADC read rate (see below). The default is to send one UDP packet
every 250 ADC reads. At this default rate, and at the 2500 Hz default ADC read rate one UDP packet is sent
every 100 mS (10 Hz).
The fastest packet rate that is useful in an application depends on:
a. The ADC read rate RATEADC.
b. The number of Transducers in the system.
c. Filter type and number of taps.
d. Matrix Multiply on or off.
e. If using UDP, any other wireless radio trafc and radio interference in your environment.
f. If using UDP, whether you are in BUFFER mode (minimizing dropouts) or DROP mode
(minimizing latency).
g. If using MicroSD™, the hardware characteristics of the particular MicroSD™ card that you are
using, especially its maximum write latency.
h. Your application’s tolerance for dropped packets.

SDREC [ON | OFF] => Stream packets to MicroSD: on, off, or toggle
This command streams data (in the standard packet format, which is also used for UDP packets) to the
MicroSD™ card. All data is placed in the \ATI subdirectory, which is created if it is not already present. The
le ati.ini is also created within this subdirectory if it is not already present. Each time that the SDREC ON
command is issued, a new le Fn.dat le is created. Note that n is the next sequential le number.
Note that the le system only supports le sizes up to 4 G bytes.
The data can be read by placing the MicroSD™ card into a computer that supports the FAT le system. A
Micro SD to USB adapter may be required.
When viewed with the HxD utility, data for a single transducer may look like:
Figure5.1—Fn.datleformat
Note that if an interruption occurs while this data is being written (such as the removal of the MicroSD™
card or the battery) the open le will generally lose any data written within the last two seconds. The
interruption may also cause lost le system clusters, which will reduce the storage capacity of the card.
As the WNET unit does not contain a le system repair utility, lost clusters may be repaired either by
formatting the card (using the SD FORMAT command, which will cause the loss of all data on the card), or
by putting the card into a computer and running the Scandisk utility. On Windows 7 machines this can be
done by opening Windows Explorer, right-clicking on the drive letter of the MicroSD™ card and selecting
Properties, clicking the Tools tab, pressing the Check Now… button, and the pressing Start.
SDUMP[lename] => File dump
This command prints a hex dump of the specied le on the MicroSD.
SF => print Serial Flash device info
This command prints information about the Serial Flash device. This command is provided for serial ash
rmware testing. For example:
SF: Maker = Silicon Storage Technology
SF: Device = SST25VF010A => 128K bytes
SF: Status = 00 BlockProtect = None
SFR [address] [length] => print Serial Flash memory of length given
This command prints Serial Flash memory starting at the given address for the given length. This command
is provided for serial ash rmware testing. For example, here we dump the rst calibration area for a unit
that has no calibrations saved:
>sfr 1000 2000
SF: 001000 ffff ffff ffff ffff ffff ffff ffff ffff ................
SF: 001010 => 002fff same as above
SFW [address] [byte] => write byte to Serial Flash address given
This command allows you to write a single byte to the Serial Flash. This command is provided for serial
ash rmware testing.

SS [A] [012345678 any combination or order] => read specied ADC
channels once
This command reads the specied ADC channels once.
SS => repeats last SS command
This command repeats the last SS command, without the need to retype the whole thing.
SSI [ADC | DAC | EEPOT | PORTS | SDCARD | SF | WLAN] [bit rate: bits/
second] => Set selected SSI bit rate
This command allows you to view information about and set the bit rate for all devices that communicate
over an SSI port (SSI is the Stellaris name for SPI). Any new rate takes effect immediately. For example:
Device Rate(Hz) Pol Pha Format
------ -------- --- --- ------
ADC 10000000 0 0 Freescale
CPLD 10000000 0 0 Freescale
DAC 1000000 0 0 Freescale
EEPOT 1000000 0 0 Freescale
EEPROM 10000000 0 0 Freescale
PORTS 10000000 0 0 Freescale
SDCARD 10000000 0 0 Freescale
SF 10000000 0 0 Freescale
WLAN 10000000 0 0 Freescale
With an 80 MHz clock, the highest bit rates that are supported by the processor hardware are:
1. 40,000,000 Hz (no SPI peripherals work at this speed)
2. 20,000,000 Hz
3. 13,333,333 Hz
4. 10,000,000 Hz
5. 8,000,000 Hz
SSID [case-sensitive string] => Set SSID
This command allows you to view and set the SSID. The new SSID will be effective after the next Join to
an Access Point. An SSID is the name of a wireless local area network. SSIDs are case sensitive text strings.
The SSID is a sequence of alphanumeric characters (letters or numbers). SSIDs have a maximum length of
32 characters.
STACK => Print stack available message
This command allows you to view how much of the processor stack is free. Whenever a new low in stack
bytes free occurs that is less than 1024 bytes this message will also appear without the command being
typed. For example:
>stack
STACK: 1184 of 4096 bytes free
STATS => Print packet statistics, [0] to clear
This command prints how many total packets, dropped packets, the maximum length of event that have
occurred since power up or the last STATS 0 command in MicroSD writing (due to write latency) and UDP
packet transmitting (due to ow control), and the average length of event. For UDP packets this command
also prints the average ow control event duration, how many ow control events occurred, and how many
times the WLAN Module locked-up and had to be reset. For example:
>stats
00:03:54 CARD Packets: Generated= 200,678 Dropped= 0 Write Latency: Max= 92 mS Mean= 1.406 mS
00:03:54 WLAN Packets: Generated= 200,678 Dropped= 0 Flow Control: Max= 92 mS Mean= 11.178 mS Events= 2,278 Module: Lock-Ups= 0

USER => Switch to User Mode
This command switches the Console to User Mode.
WLAN [ON | OFF] => Turns WLAN Module power (WIFI_PWREN) on or off
This command controls the WIFI_PWREN bit to the WLAN Module on the Digital Board. The WLAN OFF
command also turns off transmission of the regular UDP data packet.
WFLOAD => Load WLAN Module, 2-le method
This command allows you to load the WLAN Module with new rmware using the shorter 2-le method.
This is the method that is normally used. This command takes about 5 minutes to execute. Before
committing to the WLAN Module update, this command checks to make sure that the necessary les
(WiSe_Con and WiSe_WLA) are present in the Serial Flash, have a termination record (so they are probably
complete), and have no checksum errors.
WFLOAD4 => Load WLAN Module, 4-le method
This command allows you to load the WLAN Module with new rmware using the longer 4-le method.
This longer method is necessary for WLAN Modules that have had the RF Test rmware loaded into them.
This command takes about 8 minutes to execute. Before committing to the WLAN Module update, this
command checks to make sure that the necessary les (WFU_Cont, WLAN_CON, WiSe_WLA, and WiSe_
Con) are present in the Serial Flash, have a termination record (so they are probably complete), and have no
checksum errors.

WFLOADRF => Load WLAN Module, for RF testing
This command allows you to load the WLAN Module with new rmware for RF testing. This command
takes about 2 minutes to execute. Before committing to the WLAN Module update, this command checks
to make sure that the necessary les (WiSe_Con.t and WiSe_WLA.t) are present in the Serial Flash, have
a termination record (so they are probably complete), and have no checksum errors. These two les must
be loaded into the WNET unit, and then renamed by added the .t sufx to each le name before using this
command.
XPWR [* | Transducer: 1 -> 6] [ON | OFF| BRIDGE | AFE] => Transducer
power control
This command allows you to control the Analog Board power settings for each of the Transducers. The
choice for each Transducer is:
1. ON. The Analog Front End (AFE) for this Transducer (on the Analog Board) and the external
Transducer (BRIDGE) are fully powered.
2. OFF. The AFE and the external Transducer are off.
3. BRIDGE power only. The AFE is off and the external Transducer is on.
4. AFE power only. The AFE is on and the external Transducer is off.
The WNET reduces power surges by turning power on gradually. When you issue this command for a
Transducer:
1. If Transducer ON or BRIDGE-only was selected, and the Analog Power (ANALOG_SHDN bit
PF0) was off, Analog Power is turned on, and there is a 0.5 second delay.
2. If Transducer OFF was selected, and all Transducers are now off, Analog Power is turned off.
3. If Transducer ON was selected, power to the Transducer’s BRIDGE and AFE is turned on.
4. If Transducer OFF was selected, power to the Transducer’s BRIDGE and AFE is turned off.
5. If Transducer BRIDGE was selected, power to the Transducer’s BRIDGE is turned on and AFE
is turned off.
6. If the Transducer’s BRIDGE or AFE state changed to on, there is now a 0.5 second delay.
7. If the Transducer’s AFE state changed to on, the Transducer’s DAC and EEPOTs are now
written with their calibration values.
8. If the Transducer’s BRIDGE or AFE state changed to on, a Current Limit Reset is now
performed.
This command will also generate a report of the current Transducer power status. The Auto column is what
the software is commanding, based on the XPWR command. The Now column is what is actually going out
to the power port. If the columns are different, it is because direct test outputs to the Analog Board ports are
in use (see the LED1, LED2, and PWR commands).

Appendix A – UDP Command CRC Calculation
All UDP commands sent to the Wireless F/T must include a two-byte CRC (Cyclic Redundancy Check) value. This value
is used for error checking the command request and is based on the data in the command structure to be sent.
The following C code performs the calculation of the CRC value. To calculate the value, pass a pointer to the command
structure along with the command length in bytes minus two to the function crcBuf().
// If FAST is dened, then the CRC is determined using a lookup table instead of
calculations
#dene FAST 1
// Both versions use the CRC-16-CCITT polynomial: x^16 + x^12 + x^5 + 1 = 0x11021
#if FAST
unsigned short crcByte(unsigned short crc, unsigned char ch) // lookup table version
(bigger & faster)

Appendix B–InitialCongurationUsingaTelnetProgam(PuTTY)
B.1 InitialCongurationUsing
The Wireless F/T must be congured before communicating with the device. The following procedure will
help provide steps to congure the Wireless F/T.
1. Install Virtual Communication Port Driver from the following website: http://www.ftdichip.com/
Support/Documents/InstallGuides.htm
Select the instructions for the operating system running on the computer being used to congure the
wireless F/T system. Follow the instructions to load the device driver on the computer.
2. Find the serial port number used by the Wireless unit by opening Device Manager (you can get to it by
typing “Device Manager” in the Windows 7® Start Menu search bar), expanding the “Ports (COM &
LPT)” section, and nding a connection labeled “USB Serial Port (COMx)” If there’s more than one
serial port, you may have to disconnect the USB cable and see which COM port is removed in the device
manager, then reconnect the USB cable. The example in Figure 5.2 shows Wireless F/T is connected to
COM5.
Figure11.1—Windows 7® DeviceManager
3. Install a telnet terminal program like PuTTY. Visit http://putty.org to download the executable le (putty.
exe) for the PuTTY program.
4. Open (PuTTY) terminal program by clicking on the (putty) icon and selecting Run from the pop up
window.
