2. Safety
2.1. General Safety
CAUTION
This equipment emits RF energy in the ISM (Industrial, Scienc, Medical) band. Make sure that all
medical devices used in proximity to this equipment meet appropriate suscepbility specicaons
for this type of RF energy.
CAUTION
This equipment contains parts that can be damaged by electrostac discharge (ESD). Use ESD
prevenon measures to avoid damage.
CAUTION
Minimum temperature rang of the cable to be connected to the eld wiring terminals, 90 °C.
CAUTION
Use copper wire only for eld wiring terminals.
CAUTION
This equipment is recommended for use in both industrial and domesc environments. For industrial
environments it is mandatory to use the funconal earth connecon to comply with immunity
requirements. For domesc environments the funconal earth must be used if a shielded Ethernet
cable is used, in order to meet emission requirements.
2.2. Intended Use
The intended use of this equipment is as a communicaon interface and gateway. The equipment receives and
transmits data on various physical levels and connecon types.
If this equipment is used in a manner not specied by the manufacturer, the protecon provided by the
equipment may be impaired.

3. Preparaon
3.1. Support and Resources
For addional documentaon and soware downloads, FAQs, troubleshoong guides and technical support,
please visit www.anybus.com/support.
TIP
Have the product arcle number available, to search for the product specic support web page. You
nd the product arcle number on the product cover.
3.2. Network Environment
Ensure that you have all the necessary informaon about the capabilies and restricons of your local network
environment before installaon.
3.3. Placement
Antenna Consideraons
The characteriscs of the internal antenna should be considered when choosing the placement and orientaon
of the unit.
See also Internal Antenna Characteriscs.
Required Distance Between Devices
For opmal recepon, wireless devices require a zone between them clear of objects that could otherwise
obstruct or reect the signal. To avoid signal interference, a minimum distance of 50 cm between the devices
should be observed.
See Wireless Technology Basics (page 55).
3.4. When to Use Bluetooth or WLAN
Use Bluetooth when:
• The wireless link has an Anybus Wireless Bolt or Anybus Wireless Bridge II at both ends.
• An interrupon-free connecon is more important than data throughput speed.
• Interference robustness is important, e.g. in an industrial environment.
• A Pronet I/O cycle me or EtherNet/IP RPI of 64 ms or more is acceptable.
Use WLAN when:
•Connecng to other types of wireless devices or a WLAN infrastructure.
• High data throughput speed is more important than connecon reliability.
• Large le transfers are expected.
• WLAN channel frequency planning is possible.
• A low Pronet I/O cycle me or EtherNet/IP RPI is desired.
3.5. Bluetooth Limitaons
Due to dierent implementaons of Bluetooth by dierent manufacturers, Bluetooth PAN (Personal Area
Network) may not work with some devices.
WLAN 5 GHz cannot be used at the same me as WLAN 2.4 GHz or Bluetooth.

3.6. I/O-Data Cycle Time Consideraons
Based on recommendaons from industrial equipment suppliers, such as Rockwell and Siemens, use the
following minimum I/Odata cycle mes for PROFINET and EtherNet/IP networks:
• Wireless link Point-to-Point with Bluetooth PANU-PANU or Wi-Fi Access Point to Staon: 32 ms
• Wireless link with Access Point and up to 4 wireless clients/staons, Bluetooth or Wi-Fi: 64 ms

4. Installaon
4.1. Mechanical Installaon
Placement
• The device is intended to be mounted on top of a machine or cabinet through an M50 (50.5mm) hole using
the included sealing ring and nut.
• The top mounng surface, in contact with the sealing, must be at with a nish equivalent to Ra 3.2 or ner
and cleaned and free from oils and greases.
Installaon
IMPORTANT
Make sure that the sealing ring is correctly placed in the circular groove in the top part of the
housing before ghtening the nut.
IMPORTANT
Always hold the BOTTOM part of the unit when unghtening the nut, not the top part (the cap).
Tightening torque: 5 Nm ±10 %
All measurements are in mm.
