Security Precautions
Wireless LAN uses radio waves instead of LAN cables to send and receive data between a computer and
a wireless access point, making it possible to freely establish a LAN connection within a range of the
radio waves.
However, radio waves can be received through obstacles, such as walls, when within the range.
Therefore, if security settings are not made, the following problems may occur.
Unauthorized viewing of data
An unauthorized third party can intercept the radio waves and view e-mail messages and
personal information, such as user ID and password or your credit card information.
Unauthorized access
An unauthorized third party can access a personal or corporate network and cause the
following damage:
- Intercepting personal information and confidential information (information leak)
- Using a false identity to communicate and disclose information illegally (identity theft)
- Changing and transmitting intercepted data (tampering)
- Damaging data and systems by spreading a computer virus (destruction)
The wireless LAN card and wireless access point have security features to counter these problems.
Using the security settings of the wireless LAN equipment can help prevent these problems from
occurring.
The security settings of the wireless LAN equipment are not configured at the time of purchase.
To reduce security problems, configure all security settings of the wireless LAN equipment according to
the manual before using the wireless LAN card and wireless access point.
Please be aware that the security settings do not provide complete security protection due to wireless
LAN specifications. If you are unable to configure the security settings yourself, please contact your
local authorized dealer.
The customer is responsible for configuring the security settings and understanding the risks inherent in
using the product without the security settings configured.

FCC Part 15 Subpart E Notice
Operations in the 5.15-5.25GHz band are restricted to indoor usage only.
Compliance with FCC requirement 15.407(c)
Data transmission is always initiated by software, which is then passed down through the MAC, through the
digital and analog baseband, and finally to the RF chip. Several special packets are initiated by the MAC.
These are the only ways the digital baseband portion will turn on the RF transmitter, which it then turns off at
the end of the packet. Therefore, the transmitter will be on only while one of the aforementioned packets is
being transmitted. In other words, this device automatically discontinue transmission in case of either absence
of information to transmit or operational failure.

Note on Connections
CAUTION
- Do not use this product for applications that must transmit or update data regularly or within a
given time period, such as the cyclic transmission of a programmable controller. Transmission
delays cannot be obtained through calculations for Ethernet communications using this product.
- Use this product with the access point and station in visual range of each other (so that the antenna
on one device is visible from the antenna on the other device).
- During an Ethernet connection using wireless LAN, packets may be lost due to the peripheral
environment and equipment location, and the connection may not be as stable as with a wired
Ethernet connection. Be sure to check operations when using this product. Packets may be
frequently lost especially during broadcasts. In this case, use a user application or use UDP or TCP
with a specified IP address for the client.
- If the timer value set for the MELSEC Series equipment connected to this product is large, it may
take time to detect the loss of packets, and communications may appear to have stopped.*1 In this
case, changing the timer value may fix the problem.
- Do not directly connect a MELSEC-Q Series CPU module (with Built-in Ethernet) or a
MELSEC-L Series CPU module to an Ethernet port on a MELSOFT product by wireless LAN
connection.
- For additional restrictions and notes on using a wireless LAN connection, see the manual of the
MELSEC products to which this product is connected.
- This product cannot be directly connected to a CC-Link IE Field Network. A wired Ethernet
connection must be made using an optional CC-Link IE Field Network Ethernet adapter module.
- If a problem occurs, but there is nothing wrong with the settings or usage of MELSEC products
connected to this product or the Ethernet wire, there may be a problem with the setup or settings of
this product. Refer to "Chapter 7 Troubleshooting" and check the operations of this product. You
can also refer to the user's manuals of the MELSEC products connected to this product.
*1 For example, the default value of the response monitoring timer of the Ethernet Interface Module is 30 seconds, so it
takes 30 seconds to detect packet losses.
Note on Connection with Ethernet Interface Module
- When connecting this product with an Ethernet interface module, the COM.ERR.LED of the
Ethernet interface module may turn on (error code: C04BH, etc.) due to some reasons such as
packet loss. Communication can be performed with the COM.ERR.LED turned on. However,
check carefully that the system works as expected.
For how to turn off the COM.ERR.LED, refer to "Q Corresponding Ethernet Interface Module
User's Manual (Basic)".
- When the COM.ERR.LED frequently turns on, the following operations may reduce the frequency:
- Use TCP on the connection.
- Enable TCP segmentation*2.
To enable TCP segmentation, set 5B4Hto the TCP Maximum Segment Transmission setting area
(address: 1EH) and execute reinitialization.
For reinitialization, refer to "Q Corresponding Ethernet Interface Module User's Manual (Basic)."
*2 The TCP Maximum Segment Transmission setting area can be configured only for the Ethernet interface modules
(QJ71E71-100) with function version B or later, whose first five digits of the serial number are 05051 or later.
When the setting is changed to "Enable TCP Maximum Segment Size Option transmission, there are restrictions on
combination with the MELSOFT products. Refer to "Q Corresponding Ethernet Interface Module User's Manual
(Basic)".
