EW5300 Wireless Client Adaptor

1. Introduction

1.1. Overview

EW5300 is a bridge between wireless LAN to Ethernet. It allows almost any Ethernet devices to be

connected to a new or existing wireless network. The information transmitted by Wireless Client Adaptor is

transparent to both host computers (IP network over wireless LAN) and devices (Ethernet). Data from the

wireless LAN is transmitted to the designated Ethernet port and data from Ethernet port is transmitted to the

Wireless (TCP/IP) transparently.

In the computer integration manufacturing or industrial automation area, Wireless Client Adaptor is used for

field devices to direct connect to network.

Many control devices provide the ability to communicate with hosts through Ethernet. With EW5300, it is

possible to communicate with a remote device in the Intranet environment or even in the Internet and thus,

increases the communication distance dramatically.

Flexible configuration options enable this unit to be setup remotely over IP network by Web browser, or

Window utility. Packed in a rugged DIN Rail mountable case and 9~48V DC power input range, EW5300 is

ideal for almost any industrial and manufacturing automation.

1.2. Features

Transparent between Ethernet to Wireless networking

Metal housing and IP50 standard with DIN-Rail mounting.

IEEE 802.11g 54Mbps wireless network connectivity

Configurable via built-in web server and Windows-based utilities

Fig. 1-a How to Connect Antenna and Cables to the Device

2.4. Installation Procedures

Step-1:Prepare necessary Ethernet cables and DC power Adaptor.

Step-2:Place EW5300 under the access point signal coverage area and connect EW5300 to Ethernet

cable with RJ45 connector.

Step-3:Plug in EW5300 to DC-9-48V power source (with 3-pin terminal bock connector), buzzer will

beep and the RUN LED will blink if EW5300 functions normally. For LED Status see Appendix

C.3

Use DeviceView configuration utility on the Product CD to check the status of EW5300. If it starts up

successfully, users shall find the IP and MAC addresses of EW5300. Users can also change IP address,

gateway IP address and subnet mask networking parameters of EW5300 according to user networking

configurations.

NOTE: Press push Reset button for 5 seconds and then release to restart EW5300 with the factory

default settings.

3.2. IP Assignment

3.2.1. Configure IP by DeviceView Utility

Use DeviceView configuration utility that comes with Product CD-ROM or Diskette to configure the network

parameters. For more details, please refer to Appendix A3.3.

Find a new device and IP assignment:

(1)Use DeviceView Utility to find the new device IP address or to get the device’s current IP address

as shown in Fig. 2.

(2)If needed, use DeviceView Utility to re-assign a new IP address, Network Mask and Gateway

address to the new device.

(3)Users can also configure User ID, Password and Host Name using DeviceView Utility.

Fig. 2.IP Settings using DeviceView Utility software

Note: All settings will NOT be changed if User ID or Password was incorrect.

If there is more than one device using the same IP address in the same subnet, users need to correct the

mapping between MAC address and IP address using ARP commands as explained in the next section.

3.2.2. Configure IP address using ARP commands

ARP (Address Resolution Protocol) commands can be used to assign a static IP address on EW5300 using

its hardware MAC (Media Access Control) address. The MAC address "0060E9-xxxxxx" is printed on the rear

side of EW5300. The following procedures show how to use ARP commands on MS-DOS Command Prompt

Window.

Example: Set the IP address 10.0.50.101 to the MAC address 00-60-E9-00-79-F8. Using

C:\> arp –s 10.0.50.101 00-60-E9-00-79-F8

arp –acommand shows the current mapping IP and MAC addresses.

arp –s“IP address” “MAC address” maps the IP address to a specific MAC address.

Note: ARP commands can only be used to set a static IP address of EW5300.
