2 Description
2.1 Product Description
Anybus Wireless Bolt provides wireless communication over WLAN and/or Bluetooth®to wired
networks.
Typical applications for Anybus Wireless Bolt include:
• Adding wireless cloud connectivity to industrial devices
• Accessing devices from a laptop, smartphone or tablet
• Ethernet cable replacement between devices
Limitations:
Bluetooth PAN (Personal Area Network) may not work with some devices due to different
implementations of Bluetooth by different manufacturers.
WLAN 5 GHz cannot be used at the same time as WLAN 2.4 GHz or Bluetooth.
2.2 Bluetooth or WLAN?
Use Bluetooth when...
• ...the wireless link has an Anybus Wireless Bridge II or Anybus Wireless Bolt at both ends.
• ...an interruption-free connection is more important than data throughput speed.
• ...interference robustness is important – e.g. in an industrial environment.
• ...a Profinet I/O cycle time or EtherNet/IP RPI of 64 ms or more is acceptable.
Use WLAN when...
• ...connecting to other types of wireless devices or a WLAN infrastructure.
• ...high data throughput speed is more important than connection reliability.
• ...large file transfers are expected.
• ...WLAN channel frequency planning is possible.
• ...a low Profinet I/O cycle time or EtherNet/IP RPI is desired.

3.1 Safety
Caution
This equipment emits RF energy in the ISM (Industrial, Scientific, Medical) band.
Make sure that all medical devices used in proximity to this device meet
appropriate susceptibility specifications for this type of RF energy.
This product is recommended for use in both industrial and domestic environments.
For industrial environments it is mandatory to use the functional earth connection
to comply with immunity requirements. For domestic environments the functional
earth must be omitted if a shielded Ethernet cable is used, in order to meet
emission requirements.
This product contains parts that can be damaged by electrostatic discharge (ESD).
Use ESD prevention measures to avoid damage.
See also additional safety instructions in the included compliance information.
3.2 General Information
Make sure that you have all the necessary information about the capabilities and restrictions of
your local network environment before installation.
The characteristics of the internal antenna should be considered when choosing the placement
and orientation of the unit.
See Technical Data, p. 34 for details about the antenna characteristics.
For optimal reception, wireless devices require a zone between them clear of objects that could
otherwise obstruct or reflect the signal. A minimum distance of 50 cm between the devices
should also be observed to avoid interference.
See also Wireless Technology Basics, p. 33.

3.5 Cabling
To make an Ethernet connector cable for the Anybus Wireless Bolt:
Fig. 3 Ethernet cable
1. Cut off one of the connectors on a standard Cat5e or Cat6 Ethernet cable.
2. Strip off about 40 mm (1½ inch) of the cable jacket and untwist the orange, orange/white,
green and green/white wires. The other wires will not be used.
3. Strip off about 7 mm (¼ inch) of the isolation on each wire.
4. Push the pin spring release next to each socket on the connector and insert the correct
wire end according to Connector, p. 9.
Connect the wires from the power supply in the same way as the Ethernet wiring. Make sure
that polarity is not reversed.

Configuration 11 (36)
4 Configuration
4.1 General
Anybus Wireless Bolt should normally be configured via the web interface. Parameters can be
set individually or using one of the pre-configured Easy Config modes.
Advanced configuration can be carried out by issuing AT (modem) commands through the web
interface or over a Telnet or RAW TCP connection to port 8080.
The web interface is accessed by pointing a web browser to the IP address of the Wireless Bolt.
The default address is 192.168.0.99. The computer accessing the web interface must be in the
same IP subnet as the Wireless Bolt.
The web interface is designed for the current stable versions of Internet Explorer,
Chrome, Firefox and Safari. Other browsers may not support the full functionality
of the web interface.

4.2 Web Interface
The web interface is accessed by pointing a web browser to the IP address of the Wireless Bolt.
The default IP address is 192.168.0.99. The computer accessing the web interface must be in
the same IP subnet as the Wireless Bolt.
The web interface is designed for the current stable versions of Internet Explorer,
Chrome, Firefox and Safari. Other browsers may not support the full functionality
of the web interface.
4.2.1 System Overview

4.2.2 Easy Config
Fig. 6 Easy Config page
To activate an Easy Config mode, select it from the dropdown menu and click on Set.
Easy Config Modes
Mode Role Description
2—Reset configuration to factory defaults.
3—Reset IP settings to factory defaults.
4 Client Wait for automatic configuration.
5 WLAN AP Configure units in mode 4 as clients.
Restart as access point and connect clients.6 Bluetooth NAP
7 WLAN AP Configure units in mode 4 as clients.
Restart as access point and connect clients.
Apply PROFINET optimizations to all units.
8 Bluetooth NAP
10 —Apply PROFINET optimizations and restart.
Modes 5 – 8 will scan for units in mode 4. Detected units will be reconfigured as clients, and the
scanning unit will restart as an access point. The clients will then restart and connect to the
access point.
Modes 7 and 8 will additionally apply PROFINET optimization to all the units. PROFINET
messages will then have priority over TCP/IP frames.
Mode Timeout
• Modes 5 – 8 will time out after 120 seconds. Apply the mode again to repeat the scan.
• Mode 4 will listen for 120 seconds or until receiving a configuration.
The IP address of a client may be changed by the configuration from the access
point. Active browser sessions could therefore be lost.

4.2.3 Network Settings
Fig. 7 Network Settings page
IP Assignment Select static or dynamic IP addressing (DHCP)
IP Address Static IP address for the unit
The browser should automatically be redirected to the new address after clicking
on Save and Reboot (not supported by all browsers).
Subnet Mask Subnet mask when using static IP
Default Gateway Default gateway when using static IP
Internal DHCP Server Disabled: No internal DHCP functionality
DHCP Relay Enabled: The unit can receive a DHCP request on one interface
and resend it to a DHCP server located on one of the other interfaces.
Only a single DHCP server can be active for all the connected interfaces.
If WLAN is used, the forwarding mode must be set to Layer 3 IP Forward.
DHCP Server Enabled: Activates an internal DHCP server. This option is only
available when IP Assignment is set to Static.
Do not enable this option if there is already a DHCP server on the network!
Start Address (Y) The internal DHCP server will assign up to 7 IP addresses starting from X.X.X.Y,
where Xis taken from the current static IP address setting, and Yis the value in
Start Address. Already allocated addresses will be skipped, including the
address of the unit itself. The subnet mask setting will be ignored.
Examples:
IP Address: 192.168.0.99, Start Address: 101
DHCP range = 192.168.0.101 – 192.168.0.107
IP Address: 192.168.0.103, Start Address: 101
DHCP range = 192.168.0.101 – 192.168.0.108
7 addresses are allocated but the address of the unit is skipped.
