Powering the WF5000B module.

The WF5000B module can be powered by a 5VDC, 350mA (max) voltage and a standard connector jack

size of 5.5 x 2.1 x 11.5mm.

When power is applied to the module the red “Power” LED should be solid ON and after the module has

booted and is ready the “Ready” LED should solid ON.

A standard 110VAC / 5VDC power adapter as shown below can be used to power the module.

Configuring the parameters.

There are three ways of configuring the parameters of the WF5000B module:

•by connecting to the module via the serial RS232 port and using the configuration utility to

access the parameters.

•by connecting to the module over WiFi and use a standard web browser to access the

parameters.

•by AT commands.

We will here describe methods 1 and 2 which are the two most used methods. Please contact us for

more information if you wish to configure the module by AT commands.

Accessing the parameters via the serial RS232 port.

1. Connect the module to your computer’s serial port Uwith the included null modem serial cableU. If

your computer does not have a serial port then you can use a quality USB to serial adapter.

2. Start the configuration software and select the COM port number you have connected to

module to (you can check the COM port number in your operating system’s Device Manager).

The following shows the default settings:

Click the “Connect” button; and then click the “Read” button once the software has connected to

the module.

Access the parameters over WiFi.

Instead of accessing the parameters over a serial port you can access them over WiFi.

First connect to the WF5000B module using your operating system’s default wireless network manager.

In this case we use Windows 7’s wireless manager.
