2.0 Introduction

2.1 Use the ECL Comfort 296 / 310 in SCADA systems via WLAN

The ECL Comfort 296 / 310 controller has a built-in ethernet interface

which enables it to connect to the local network (LAN) via a standard

ethernet cable.

By connecting the ECL Comfort 296 / 310 to the local network and/

or the internet the ECL Comfort 296 / 310 can be used in SCADA

systems like the Danfoss ECL Portal.

In some installations it may be prefered to use wireless network

(WLAN) instead. In such cases the ECL Comfort 296 / 310 can easily

connect to a wireless network by using a wireless bridge.

2.2 What is a wireless brigde?

The function of the wireless bridge is to be a bridge between a

wireless network (WLAN) and an ethernet network (LAN).

By using a wireless bridge a device like the ECL Comfort 296 / 310

can connect to the wireless network and/or the internet using its

standard ethernet interface.

3.0 System overview

3.1 Components

3.2 Wireless internet router

This is a standard wireless internet router which may already be avail-

able in the building providing a wireless internet connection.

To connect to the wireless internet the name of the wireless network

(SSID) and the password must be known.

3.3 Wireless bridge

The wireless bridge is the extra electronic device needed to make

the ECL Comfort 296 / 310 able to connect to the wireless internet

connection.

Several wireless bridges are available on the market, but the one

from Netgear (type WN3000RP) shown in the picture is very simple

to install and conﬁgure.

The wireless bridge is inserted into the mains plug and a standard

network cable is connected from the side of the wireless bridge to

the ECL Comfort 296 / 310 ethernet connection.

Netgear (type WN3000RP).

3.4 Conﬁgure the wireless bridge

Prior to connecting the wireless bridge to the ECL Comfort 296 /

310 it has to be conﬁgured by following the Netgear wizard.

The Netgear wizard is accessed by connecting a computer to the

ethernet connector of the wireless bridge, opening an internet

3.5 Select wireless network to be used for wireless bridge

The Netgear wizard asks for wireless network to be used by the wire-

less bridge. Select the wireless network.

The Netgear wizard now asks for the password to the selected wire-

less network. Enter the password.

The wireless bridge is then completing the conﬁguration and the

ethernet connection on the side of the wireless bridge can now be

connected to the ECL Comfort 296 / 310.

Enter passphrase for the selected wireless network.

3.6 Conﬁgure ECL Comfort 296 / 310 controller to local net-

work

The ECL Comfort 296 / 310 controller must be conﬁgured to con-

nect to the local network (LAN).

If the ECL Portal is used as SCADA system then the ECL Comfort

296 / 310 must be conﬁgured for DHCP instead of STATIC in the

System>Ethernet menu and the ECL Portal feature must be ena-

bled in the System>Portal Conﬁg menu.

If used with ECL Portal: Conﬁgure for DHCP.

Enable the ECL Portal in the Portal Conﬁg menu.
