Installation

The module is compatible with controllers Wiren Board 6, Wiren Board 7 and Wiren Board 8 of all revisions, it can be installed:

• Wiren Board 6.3–6.6 — up to 3 modules in slots MOD1-MOD3.
• Wiren Board 6.7–7.x — up to 4 modules in slots MOD1-MOD4.
• Wiren Board 8.4 — up to 2 modules in slots MOD2 and MOD3.
• Wiren Board 8.5 — up to 4 modules in slots MOD1-MOD4.

When ordering modules in a bundle with a Wiren Board controller, we install them at the factory - you just need to configure the modules in the controller's web interface.

If you bought the modules separately, install them yourself:

1. Disassemble the controller case.
2. Insert the module, observing the polarity: the protrusion on it should fit into the slot on the controller board.

1. Secure the SMA socket with nuts in the hole of the case above the Ethernet ports. Note that there is a flat on the SMA connector and on the case hole that guides the connector and prevents it from twisting. For cases up to version Wiren Board 6.5, you need to drill the hole yourself, with a diameter of 6.5 mm.
2. Reassemble the body. Keep an eye on the connecting cable from the module to the SMA socket: it must not be pinched, strongly bent, or get between the indicator and the light guide on the top cover.
3. Screw the external antenna onto the SMA socket.
4. When mounting in a metal shield, position the antenna outside for reliable radio communication.

Configuration

Change access level

Administrator level

To change the settings of the controller, you need the Administrator access level, which can be set in the Settings → Permissions section.

After completing the settings, we recommend that you set the access level to User or Operator - this will help you avoid making random mistakes when working with the web interface every day.

Settings

Connection of expansion modules in the web interface of the Wiren Board controller

After the module is physically connected, it must be added to the controller configuration:

1. In the web interface, go to the section Settings → Configs → Hardware Modules Configuration, select the Internal slot where the module is installed extensions.
2. In the Module type drop-down list, select the name of the installed module.
3. Press the Save button. The controller will enable the ports required for the module to work.

To remove a module, select the type None.
