1. Description.
The WD04T is a device to monitor radio signal level of wireless network thanks to the “Test Link Radio” function.
Is used to verify quality and range of radio signal in different measure points and to identify best positions for WR12 repeaters if
needed.
2. Wireless device user interface.
The user interface consists of a “virtual” button that can be activated using the WineCapKey and of a two-colors led.
To give a command, user must approach the WineCapKey to the device’s sensible area and keep it in that position.; the following
picture (Picture 3 - WineCapKey positioning) shows device’s sensible points.

The following COMMAND table describes the available commands:
Flash count
Command
Description
1 flash
STATUS
Shows the device STATUS. As answer the led perform a flash sequence as reported
in the “STATUS” table. If the device is performing the TEST (refer to TEST command)
this command stops it.
2 flashes
TEST
Enter in TEST mode and transmits status and measurements every 5 seconds. If
the device is in STANDBY mode or it is out of radio range, this command forces the
connection procedure to the WSN and the return to the operative mode. The TEST
stops after 120 seconds. During TEST, the led continuously shows the STATUS to
monitor the received radio signal quality.
CAUTION: Measures acquired during TEST phase are NOT saved.
3 flashes
ENROLL
Association to the network: must be used when the device has not yet been
included in a network, starts the entry and association procedure to the
basestation (refer to “WineCap System - User Manual R30”).
4 flashes
+ 4 flashes
STANDBY
Temporary device deactivation: the device is stopped. The sampling process and
the radio are/is turned off losing the connection to the network. To reactivate, a
TEST command is necessary. The STANDBY command must be given twice to
confirm it: at the first sequence the led flashes alternating RED and GREEN lights,
waiting for the second confirm sequence within 15 seconds. At the command
execution the led flashes as the STANDBY status (refer to “WIRELESS MODE STATUS
Table”).
5 flashes
+ 5 flashes
FACTORY
RESET
The device performs the memory deleting procedure and goes in STOP status. All
samples, configuration and wireless network data associated are LOST. To
reactivate the device a new association and configuration procedure is necessary
(ENROLL command). Also in this case, the FACTORY RESET command must be given
twice to confirm it. At the command execution the led flashes as the
“PROBE/DATALOGGER NOT ASSOCIATED” status refer to “WIRELESS MODE STATUS
Table”).
3. Enrolling the device.
Not necessary if performed in factory before delivery.
Enroll the device to the network referring to the “WineCap System - User Manual R30”. In case the device is already enrolled but in
STANDBY status, a TEST command must be issued (refer to Picture 4 - Commands table).
4. Installation procedure.
After installing the basestation in appropriate place in charge, (refer to “WineCap System - User Manual R30”), be sure that the device is
enrolled to the basestation and activated.
Head for the environment to be monitored. On the way, to check the quality of the radio coverage, use the "Field Measurer" function.
This function is activated issuing the TEST (refer to Picture 4 - Commands table)command: position the WineCapKey in the spot indicated
in Picture 3 - WineCapKey positioning and wait for two AMBER flashes, then remove the WineCapKey from device. The "Field
Measurer" function lasts enabled for two minutes.
To issue commands to the device, place the WineCapKey where indicated.
Once the WineCapKey is detected, the led periodically emits AMBER flashes with a 2 second cadence.
For each flash, a different command is associated; to confirm the command the WineCapKey must be removed from the sensible
area immediately after the number of flashes corresponding at the desired command. The TEST corresponds to the second pulse and
activate the "Field Measurer" function.

Optimize reception selecting the best position: small movements can help.
If the signal is absent or insufficient at the install point, a WR12 repeater should be put between (refer to “WineCap System - User Manual
R30”). The WR12 repeater itself must be in a position where the signal level is at least sufficient.
The network will reconfigure itself automatically; the signal will be good again when the device synchronizes with the WR12 repeater.
The link will not be reconfigured until completely lost by the device. Because of this, in some cases it could be necessary to force the
operation. In such cases, put the device in STANDBY mode, then run the TEST again (refer to “WineCap System - User Manual R30”).
5. Displaying the WSN reference point.
When moving around the area covered by the radio signal, the WD04T probe will automatically connect to the WR12 repeater or to
the basestation when the signal emitted by the previous reference is no longer adequate to ensure a stable communication link.
The display will show the wireless network address of the signal reference used at any time. The value "0" is reserved for the
basestation, higher values correspond to WR12 repeaters.
During the enrolling process, the WineCapManager software assigns an address between 1 and 31 to the WR12 repeater. Taking
note of this number and for the WR12 repeater position in the field is stronger recommended.
When the WD04T loses the connection, temporarily switches to "NO RF" status, then it connects to a new reference and refreshes
the displayed details. The address is displayed on the screen:

6. Display selection button.
The display is typically off, to preserve battery life.
The button located below the display, corresponding to the WineCap™ logo, can be used to switch the display on and show the tester
status. By pressing it, three pages alternates on the display: indoor temperature, radio signal reading (which persists during the radio
test) and the manufacturer logo.
During the test, when the signal level is displayed, the button allows to switch between showing the signal intensity as dBm or as
signal percentage.
7. Tester unenroll –enrol.
If many WSN plants are installed and the radio coverage of each of those systems must be tested, the WD04T device should be moved
to the system to be tested. So, the WD04T must be "unenrolled" from the previous system and "enrolled" to the new one. The
WD04T radio can communicate with only one WSN network at a time, so be sure that the enrolling process with the intended network
has been completed successfully.
To unenroll the device, the “Factory Reset”process must be completed using the WineCapKey (refer to “WineCap System - User Manual
R30”). Put the WineCapKey close to the sensible point and wait for five AMBER flashes, remove the WineCapKey away and put it
close again and wait for further five flashes. The datalogger erases its internal memory and "Factory Reset" status is displayed.
To enrol the WD04T to another basestation a PC connection is necessary, and a new enrolling procedure must be allowed.
Put the WinecapKey close to the sensible area and wait for three AMBER flashes. At the end of the procedure the display will show
the “Linked”status.
By the basestation side, the WD04T is manages as a temperature datalogger; WineCapManager reports information regarding radio
signal quality and battery charge. Delete the element from the list if not desired.
8. Shutting off/Reactivating the device.
If the device is shut off and left unused for a long time, you can issue the STANDBY command (refer to Picture 4 - Commands table). It
corresponds to the command number 4 and must be issued twice to confirm the operation.
Position the WineCapKey in the spot indicated in Picture 3 - WineCapKey positioning and wait for four AMBER flashes, then remove
the WineCapKey from device.
Verify that the device asks for confirmation of STANDBY command with alternate GREEN/RED flashing, then position again the
WineCapKey and wait for four flashes again. The device will confirm the STANDBY status lighting the RED led for 2 seconds twice.
To reactivate the device the TEST command must be issued.
