05-4953A01, Rev. 01 GE MDS WiYZ Remote Quick Start Guide 1
MDS WiYZ Remote
Publication No. 05-4953A01, Rev. 01
The GE MDS WiYZ platform allows the connection of process sen-
sors to a wireless network. Wirelessly networked sensors allow
monitoring and control of equipment and processes without the
infrastructure requirements of a hard-wired system. The WiYZ plat-
form’s IP65 Outdoor Rating allows installation of the gateway and
remotes outdoors, if required.
In addition to these instructions, the MDS WiYZ System Reference
Manual (05-4954A01) provides helpful guidance on WiYZ systems
and menus. Also refer to the MDS WiYZ Gateway Quick Start
Guide (05-4888A01). Electronic copies of all user documents and
data sheets are available free of charge at www.GEmds.com.
1.1 WiYZ Remote
The WiYZ Remote is an industrial wireless solution for monitoring
signals from directly connected sensors and other signaling
devices. It provides robust, versatile communications even in
harsh environments and at sites with limited power and communi-
cation facilities.
The unit’s self-contained design allows for quick installation and
deployment without the need for additional accessories. The WiYZ
Remote automatically determines communication routes with the
WiYZ Gateway.
Figure 1. WiYZ Remote
1.2 Typical Application
The WiYZ system allows the user to connect a network of sensors
wirelessly, and to access collected sensor data through a variety
of backhaul WAN interfaces.
The WiYZ Remotes monitor analog signals from directly con-
nected sensors and other signaling devices, such as warehouse
video cameras, tank level sensors, and OEM instruments.

2.6 WiYZ Remote Installation
Refer to Figure 3 during these steps, as required:
1. Attach the antenna. The antenna N-connector is certified for
use with omni-directional antennas (up to 5 dBi gain) and Yagi
antennas (up to 10 dBi gain). An appropriate Yagi antenna is
the Maxrad MYP24010PT (MDS P/N: 97-4278A01).
2. Mount the WiYZ Remote units. Can be mounted using a wall
mount plate, a pole mount, or strapped to a mast. Descriptions
of available accessories TBS.
3. Connect the analog cable from the sensor to be moni-
tored to the I/O connector. For more information, refer to 2.4
Terminal Strip (J201) Pinouts on Page 2.
4. For units with a battery, put Switch SW201 in the ON posi-
tion. Units with a battery ship from the factory with SW201 in
the OFF position.
5. Connect optional AC power to the Remote units. The
WiYZ Remote requires 7 to 30 Vdc. Additional details TBS.

FCC Part 15 Notice
This Equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class
A digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed
to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference when the equip-
ment is operated in a commercial environment. This equipment generates,
uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in
accordance with the instruction manual, may cause harmful interference to radio
communications. Operation of this equipment in a residential area is likely to
cause harmful interference in which case users will be required to correct the
interference at their own expense.
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the
following two conditions: (1) this device may not cause harmful interference, and
(2) this device must accept any interference received; including interference that
may cause undesired operation.
RF Exposure Notice
The equipment described in this guide emits radio frequency energy. Although
the power level is low, the concentrated energy from a directional antenna may
pose a health hazard. To comply with rf exposure requirements the antenna
must be installed to ensure a minimum separation distance of 20cm from persons
and may not be collocated or operated with other transmitting devices.
This guide is intended for use by a professional installer.
Only approved antennas may be used on the unit's RF output connectors,
as listed below. The use of non-approved antennas may result in a viola-
tion of FCC rules, and subject the user to FCC enforcement action.
Warning: Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the manufacturer
could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.
