Examples of Networks Built Using NE-
W11E
A wireless LAN network can be built by combining NE-W11E with Wireless LAN
Access Point NE-W01E. Wireless LANs operate in two communications modes:
infrastructure mode and ad-hoc mode. The applicable mode varies according to
what kind of network you are going to configure by the wireless LAN. For this reason,
check which communications mode will be used referring to the network configu-
ration examples below.
Example of a network built in the infrastructure mode
In relatively large-scale networks where the user wants to add on a wireless LAN
network to an existing wired LAN network or access the Internet from a wireless
LAN network, access points are used to configure a network in the infrastructure
mode.

Installing the NE-W11E
Installation location
Read "Safety Precautions" ( page 2) in this manual, and check the
precautions when using the NE-W11E.
Read "Operating Environment" ( page 7) in this manual, and check the
precautions regarding the installation location. The NE-W11E uses radio
waves. So, sometimes normal communications is no longer possible in some
operating environments.
Make sure that the NE-W11E is not installed too far away from other wireless
LAN devices, and that there are no obstacles (metal, concrete walls, etc.) in
between these wireless LAN devices. Transmission speed and transfer
distance fluctuate considerably depending on the ambient environment.
Install the NE-W11E in locations where there is a clear path between the NE-
W11E and other wireless LAN devices.
In the infrastructure mode
When the network is configured in the infrastructure mode, we recommend
installing the wireless LAN stations within a radius of 20 m of the Wireless LAN
Access Point NE-W01E at their center as shown in the figure below.
(The standard distance for indoor communications is roughly 40 m.)

In the ad-hoc mode
When the network is configured in the ad-hoc mode, we recommend installing
the wireless LAN stations so that they are within xxm of each other as shown in
the figure below. (The standard distance for indoor communications is roughly
40 m.)
*We recommend limiting the number of devices connected in this configura-
tion to three devices.
Note: When wireless LAN devices are installed too far away from each other or
there are obstacles that hinder wireless communications, communications
may not be possible between those wireless LAN devices. This is called the
"hidden terminal problem." In the ad-hoc mode, this may cause a drop in
throughput.
Distance between surrounding areas
Be sure to allow at least 30 mm of space between the NE-W11E and other devices
or surrounding walls when installing the NE-W11E.

Periodic Maintenance and Inspection
Maintenance
Inspect the NE-W11E once every six months to one year. Inspect the NE-
W11E at shorter inspection periods if it is used in extremely high-temperature
and/or high-humidity or dusty environments.
If you cannot remove dirt or dust on the NE-W11E by wiping with a soft, dry
cloth, wipe with a firmly wrung cloth moistened with watered down neutral
detergent.
If rubber, vinyl products or adhesive tape are left attached to the NE-W11E for
a long period of time, the NE-W11E may become stained. Remove any of these
during cleaning if attached to the NE-W11E.
Precautions When Replacing the Body
Pay attention to the following points when replacing the body:
Turn the power OFF before you replace the body.
After replacing the body, check the new body for any abnormalities.
If a nonconformity necessitates that the body be repaired, send the body back to
your Keyence agent attached with a sheet of paper described the circumstances
in which the nonconformity occurred in as much detail as possible.

Troubleshooting
The POWER LED does not light.
Make sure that the power terminal is connected correctly to the power supply
terminal block.
Make sure that the power supply method (terminal block or Power Over
Ethernet) and the power selector switch on the NE-W11E are correctly set.
Swap the power supply with a different power supply and check again.
The WIRELESS LED does not light.
When the Wireless LAN Access Point NE-W01E is used, make sure that the
access point is ON.
Make sure that ESS ID and other wireless LAN connection settings match
those of the other party NE-W01E is communicating with over the wireless
LAN.
The ETHERNET LED does not light.
Make sure that the cables are firmly inserted.
Try switching the straight/cross selector switch to see if the ETHERNET LED
lights.
Make sure that the devices that are connected to the Ethernet port are ON.
Make sure that the cable connected to the Ethernet port is a cable of the correct
type.
Check the cables for any breaks using a cable tester or similar device.
Cannot use the Power Over Ethernet function.
Check whether or not the connection destination device supports the Keyence
Corporation Power Over Ethernet function.
Make sure that the power selector switch on the side of the NE-W11E is set
to "PoE". Also, make sure that the PoE function on the supplying side NE-V08
or DT-100 is set correctly.
For details on the PoE function on the power supplying side device, refer to
the various manuals or instruction manuals for the respective product.
Make sure that cables currently used for connection support the Keyence
Corporation Power Over Ethernet function.
For details on Keyence Corporation cables that can be used, see "Power Over
Ethernet (PoE)" ( page 24).
