Safety Precautions
IMPORTANT
Read the safety precautions for this product that are described in Read Me First (IM 01W02E01-
11EN).
About Radio Wave
IMPORTANT
• This product is equipped with a wireless module which is designated as a certication of
construction type as a wireless facility for 2.4 GHz band low-power data communication
system of the Radio Act.
Refer to G1.3 Regulatory Compliance Statements for detail.
Due to the designated certication of construction type, users may be subject to legal pun-
ishment in case of:
- Disassembling or modifying the wireless module or antenna in this instrument
- Peeling off the certication label attached to the wireless module in this instrument
• Microwave ovens and other industrial, scientic and medical equipment, as well as local
wireless stations (license required) and specic low-power wireless stations (license not
required) for identifying mobile objects used in the production line of a factory, use the same
frequency band as this product. Prevent interference with other wireless stations.
• Check that local wireless stations and specic low-power wireless stations are not being
used in the vicinity before using this product.
• If this product causes radio interference in a local wireless station used for identifying mobile
objects, change the working frequency or stop the emission of radio waves immediately. For
details on how to prevent radio interference, contact our service ofce.
• Although this product has been designed to resist high frequency electrical noise, if a radio
transceiver is used near the transmitter or its external wiring, the transmitter may be affected
by high frequency noise pickup. To test this, start out from a distance of several meters and
slowly approach the transmitter with the transceiver while observing the measurement loop
for noise effects. Thereafter use the transceiver outside the range where the noise effects
were rst observed.

■FCC compliance
This device complies with part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two
conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept
any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.
Co-Located:
This transmitter must not be co-located or operated in conjunction with any other antenna or
transmitter.
FCC CAUTION
Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could
void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.
Note: This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class A digital
device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable
protection against harmful interference when the equipment is operated in a commercial
environment. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not
installed and used in accordance with the instruction manual, may cause harmful interference to
radio communications. Operation of this equipment in a residential area is likely to cause harmful
interference in which case the user will be required to correct the interference at his own expense.
Compliance with FCC requirement 15.407(c)
Data transmission is always initiated by software, which is the 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.
Frequecncy Tolerance: 20 ppm
5.15-5.25GHz band is restricted to indoor operations only.
RF Exposure Compliance
This equipment complies with FCC radiation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled
environment and meets the FCC radio frequency (RF) Exposure Guidelines in Supplement C to
OET65. This equipment should be installed and operated keeping the radiator at least 20cm or
more away from person’s body (excluding extremities: hands, wrists, feet and ankles).

■Industry Canada (IC) compliance
This Class Adigital apparatus complies with Canadian ICES-003.
French: Cet appareil numérique de la classe Aest conforme à la norme NMB-003 du Canada.
This device complies with Industry Canada licence-exempt RSS standard(s). Operation is subject
to the following two conditions: (1) this device may not cause interference, and (2) this device
must accept any interference, including interference that may cause undesired operation of the
device.
French: Le présent appareil est conforme aux CNR d'Industrie Canada applicables aux appareils

radioélectrique subi, même si le brouillage est susceptible d'en compromettre le fonctionnement.
Under Industry Canada regulations, this radio transmitter may only operate using an antenna of a
type and maximum (or lesser) gain approved for the transmitter by Industry Canada. To reduce
potential radio interference to other users, the antenna type and its gain should be so chosen that
the equivalent isotropically radiated power (e.i.r.p.) is not more than that necessary for successful
communication.
French: Conformément à la réglementation d'Industrie Canada, le présent émetteur radio peut
fonctionner avec une antenne d'un type et d'un gain maximal (ou inférieur) approuvé pour
l'émetteur par Industrie Canada. Dans le but de réduire les risques de brouillage radioélectrique à
l'intention des autres utilisateurs, il faut choisir le type d'antenne et son gain de sorte que la
puissance isotrope rayonnée équivalente (p.i.r.e.) ne dépasse pas l'intensité nécessaire à
l'établissement d'une communication satisfaisante.
5.15-5.25GHz band is restricted to indoor operations only.
French: La bande 5 150-5 250 MHz est restreints à une utilisation à l’intérieur.
This radio transmitter IC Number 8999A-WIC003 has been approved by Industry Canada to
operate with the antenna types listed below with the maximum permissible gain and required
antenna impedance for each antenna type indicated. Antenna types not included in this list,
having a gain greater than the maximum gain indicated for that type, are strictly prohibited for use
with this device.

A1. Introduction
Read the User’s Manual of the YFGW410 eld wireless management station (IM 01W02D01-
01EN) before reading this document.
The YFGW510 eld wireless access point is a core component of eld wireless networks based
on ISA100.11a, a wireless communication standard for industrial automation. YFGW510 serves
as an access point (master device for eld wireless devices) and forms the wireless backbone
network for the YFGW410 eld wireless management station and the YFGW610 eld wireless
media converter.

Figure A2-1 shows the minimum conguration with a single YFGW510, and Figure A2-2 shows
the YFGW510-redundant conguration employing the Duocast technology (each wireless eld
device communicates with two YFGW510s).
The wireless backbone network consists of the YFGW410 eld wireless management station, the
YFGW510 eld wireless access point and the YFGW610 eld wireless media converter. Any of
the following connection methods can be selected.
1. Metal network cable (100BASE-TX)
2. Optical ber network cable (100BASE-FX)
YFGW610 must be installed between YFGW510 and YFGW410 for optical ber network
connection to convert it to metal network connection.
3. Wireless LAN connection
Recommended access points for wireless LAN must be installed between YFGW510 and
YFGW410 for wireless LAN connection to convert it to metal network connection.
For recommended wireless LAN access points, see the User’s Manual of YFGW410 eld
wireless management station (IM 01W02D01-01EN).

As shown above, the functions of the eld wireless backbone interface differ depending on speci-
cations.
YFGW510 with the 100BASE-FX specications is equipped with a media converting board for
metal network/optical ber network. The metal network cable and optical ber network cable can-
not be used at the same time.
In the wireless LAN specications, neither metal network cable nor optical ber network cable
can be used.
YFGW510 with the redundant wireless LAN specications uses either wireless LAN port as a
communication path. For the selection of a wireless LAN port and the conditions for switching
communication paths, see D3.7 Setting of WLAN Redundancy.
ISA100.11a BBR of the eld wireless network interface is for the ISA100.11a eld wireless com-
munication.
Initial communication shown in the block gure is an infrared communication port for setting pa-
rameters through the glass window on the front face of YFGW510.
