The assembly and installation may be performed only by trained specialists. 6.1 Safety and Other Notes − The Rittal CMC-TC system may be operated only with connected protective earth conductor. The protective earth conductor connection is made by plugging in the IEC connection cable. This requires that the IEC connection cable at the power supply side be connected with the protective earth conductor. − The electrical connection voltage and frequency must conform to the rated values specified at the rear of the housing and in the technical specifications (see page 19). • Insert the other end of the RJ45 connection cable in a free RJ45 socket with number 1 to 4 of the CMC-TC Processing Unit. After connection to the power supply, the Status LED of the CMC-TC Wireless I/O-Unit flashes automatically. As soon as it is connected, the Status LED illuminates alternately red, yellow and green. 6.3 Antenna Adjustment The antenna of the I/O-Unit should always be adjusted parallel to the antennas of the sensors. If all sensors are aligned vertical, the I/O-Unit antenna must be also aligned vertical. − Before commencing work on the Rittal CMC-TC system, it must be disconnected from the mains power supply and protected against being reconnected. Warning! FCC certification is valid only for the 2.4 GHz omnidirectional antenna model IW-144 having a maximum 2 dBi gain. An antenna having the same specifications as model IW-144 but with a gain of less than 2 dBi is an acceptable substitute. − Protect the connection cables using cable ties on the used housing or enclosure. − To prevent unnecessary cable losses, the used cable lengths must not exceed the lengths specified in the technical specifications (see Chapter 14, page 19). 6.2 Connecting the Voltage Supply Commissioning 7.1 CMC-TC Wireless I/O-Unit Commissioning Log in to the CMC-TC Processing Unit as described in Section 8.1.1 Login Using a Browser.

The Wireless Connection LED will change to green. If the programming mode is not closed manually, the CMC-TC Wireless I/O-Unit returns automatically to normal mode two minutes after the last registration action. CMC TC Wi l I/O U it To ensure the best possible reception of the individual sensors, the suitability of each sensor location must be tested in advance using the wireless measuring system sensor (DK 7320.242). Procedure: i. Place the I/O-Unit into operation at the planned location as described in Section 7.1. Tip: Before starting the calibration, successively connect all sensors to the I/O-Unit. This causes the sensors to be placed in front of the measuring system sensor in the registration list of the Processing Unit II. This simplifies the subsequent administration. ii. Connect the wireless measuring system sensor to the I/O-Unit (see Section 7.2). To do this, proceed as follows: Place the I/O-Unit in programming mode (press the C key for three seconds) > press the key on the wireless sensor for five seconds (resets the sensor) > press the key on the wireless sensor 1 second > the LED flashes once briefly > sensor is registered > leave programming mode of the I/O-Unit (press the C key for two seconds, the wireless connection LED on the I/O-Unit lights up green). iii. Place the sensor attachment bracket at the required sensor location (true for all sensor types). The sensor front side edge must point later in the I/O-Unit direction. iv. Place the measuring system sensor on the attachment bracket. The sensor position during the measurement must be the same as the operation position. v. Perform a one-minute measurement with the measuring system sensor: Press the key on the measuring system sensor > the result of the previous measurement will be displayed for five seconds > "1" flashes in the display (indicates the one-minute measurement) > if a different number is displayed flashing, press the key several times until the "1" appears > the measurement EN 7 Commissioning EN starts after 5 seconds > the measurement result (0-9) will be displayed after one minute. (Details for the measurement and measuring times are contained in the operating instructions of the wireless sensors.) vi. Measurement result 8-9: The connection is suitable for the productive operation. Remove the measuring system sensor and place the required sensor (temperature, humidity, access or digital input) on the attachment bracket. vii. Measurement result 0-7: Sensor location not suitable. Change the position of the sensor, use a repeater (see Chapter 9) or use an external antenna. Then repeat the measurement. viii. Repeat steps iii. to vii. for each additional sensor. The wireless sensors now have an adequate connection to the I/O-Unit. This completes the installation of the system. If problems in the wireless area occur during the installation of the system, Subsection 7.5.4 describes the appropriate troubleshooting for correcting the fault. Signal weakening Even without obstacles, the sent wireless signal is subject to a natural attenuation. The electric and magnetic field strengths reduce by the factor 1/r2. This means for distances exceeding approximately 1 m, the signal strength reduces by the factor 4 when the distance is doubled. Consequently, at 10 m distance from the transmitter, only 1/100 of the signal strength compared with that at 1 m distance will be received. Any object through which the wireless signal needs to penetrate causes an absorption of the signal (optical model: the light will be weaker). Whereas lightweight partition walls and doors cause only small signal attenuation, masonry walls and coated glass, persons or animals cause more signal attenuation; metal causes large signal attenuation. Metal grids act like metal walls. 7.5.2 Introduction to the Wireless Data Transmission for the Rittal Wireless Sensor Network This section describes the principles of the associated wireless technology that can be useful for setting up the wireless installation. The sensor system operates with a frequency of 2.4 GHz. This means an optical consideration is helpful for an initial planning for suitable installation locations and distances. The wireless signal is considered as being a light beam with a dispersion characteristic appropriate for light. If you follow this model, it becomes clear that a direct line-of-sight connection between the base and the sensor is the most favourable installation variant. Walls, furnishings, etc., in the vicinity can, however, act as a "mirror" that reflects the signal like light. In this case, not only the original signal, but also reflected signals from various directions arrive at the receiving point. It is possible that the sent data are incorrectly combined in the receiver. This effect is called multi-path reception and can cause major impairment of the reception quality. This means even a line-of-sight connection between the transmitter and the receiver is no guarantee for a good connection. Fig. 20 Absorption of the wireless signal by various materials Subsection 7.5.3 provides a general estimate of what ranges can be expected for certain installation situations. Commissioning 7 7.5.3 Wireless System Range Estimate Scenario Table 5 provides an indication of the expected ranges for certain installation scenarios.
