This manual was written to help both the first time and advanced user of the 195C/M to configure the wireless modem for your application. If this is your first time configuring the 195C/M and you would like to get going as soon as possible, we recommend using the ESTeem Resource CD provided with the modem. The Resource CD will provide the software utilities and guide you through the configuration of the wireless modem for your application. The ESTeem 195C/M wireless modems are programmed through their Ethernet interface. To keep the manual usably short, many of the application descriptions and programming details assume the user has a good working knowledge of the following network concepts:

General Ethernet networking and the configuration of LAN topologies Common Ethernet terminology and acronyms TCP/IP network protocol structure and how to configure TCP/IP networks Figure 1: ESTeem Model 195C/M Series Throughout this Users Manual are Technical Tips in boxes like this that have been added to help answer the most commonly asked questions. and subnets If using routing protocols, you must be able to identify and configure the network routers, gateways and firewalls How to identify and set the TCP/IP address on your computer Have administrator privileges to the computer and network you are configuring You must be familiar with using web browser software such as Internet Explorer, Chrome or Firefox If you are unfamiliar with any of the above networking concepts, you may need to contact your network administrator for assistance. Model 195C/M Overview The ESTeem Model 195C and 195M are wireless modem transceivers that can be used to build many types of Wireless Local Area Networks (WLAN). The ESTeem 195C/M series have multiple serial (RS-232, RS-422 and RS-485), Ethernet and 4/20mA sensor interfaces. The Model 195C and 195M can be configured for multiple modes of operation depending upon the needs of the wireless and wired network. The following interface configurations are provided as an overview of the basic network types, as all possible network configurations can not be listed. For further help in selecting the correct network type, please refer to Chapter 3 of this Users Manual or call Customer Support at 509-735-9092. Serial Applications A Model 195C/M can be configured for point-to-point, multipoint or PLC emulations without any changes to the hardware. The following are brief descriptions of the Serial Device Interface (SDI) configuration modes. For detailed descriptions and suggested applications for each mode, please refer to Chapter 3. RS-232 The ESTeem 195C and 195M have two (2) RS-232 data ports. One RS-

232 port (Port 4) is available for use when the ESTeem 195C/M is remote pole mounted (Figure 2), but only supports the basic three wire (Transmit, Receive and Ground) connection without any handshaking. The second RS-232 port (Port 3) has full Figure 2 Pole Mount Configuration Revised: 4 Feb 14 1-1 EST P/N AA107-195CM CHAPTER 1 INTRODUCTION hardware handshaking through the request to send (RTS) and clear to send (CTS) lines. Both ports are software configurable from 2,400 to 115,000 bps. RS-422 The ESTeem 195C and 195M have a single RS-422 data port (Port 2). The RS-422 data port is shared on the front panel with the 10/100 Mbps Ethernet interface. The RS-422 interface is good for long distances to 4,000 feet at bauds rate software configurable from 2,400 to 115,000 bps. RS-485 The ESTeems have a single, two-wire RS-485 data port (Port 1). The RS-485 data port is shared on the front panel with the 4/20mA sensors. The RS-485 interface is good for long distances to 4,000 feet at baud rates software configurable from 2,400 to 115,000 bps. Ethernet Applications The ESTeem 195C and 195M have a 10/100 Mbps Ethernet interface (Port 2) that is used as both a data port and the primary programming port. When the Ethernet port is used as a data port there are two modes of operation. The primary use will be as a slow speed (9,600 bps) Ethernet bridge to remote locations to gather data from remote Ethernet devices. The secondary mode of operation is to configure the Ethernet port as a TCP or UDP Socket and write custom software applications to access the data port. Each of these modes of operation are described in detail in Chapter 5. Sensor Applications The ESTeem 195C and 195M have four (4) independent configurable 4/20mA sensor inputs. The sensor inputs can be read from the 195C/M though either their ModbusTCP address or through a serial software command. These values can be read either locally our through the wireless network. Legacy - Model 192 Applications The ESTeem 195C can be integrated with our legacy ESTeem Model 192C or Model 192CHP, while the 195M can be integrated with Models 192M or 192MHP networks. There is a specific procedure to follow when integrating the new 195C or 195M in an existing network that can be found in Appendix C of this Users Manual. To begin setup of your wireless Ethernet network, continue to Chapter 2 - Staring Out of this Users Manual. Revised: 4 Feb 14 1-2 EST P/N AA107-195CM CHAPTER 2 STARTING OUT Overview There are three main phases to prepare the ESTeem 195C or 195M for operation in a wireless network:

Phase 1 - Determine the correct mode of operation for the ESTeem in the wireless network. The ESTeem 195C/M have multiple modes of operation and determining the correct mode of operation is the first step. Chapter 3 of this Users Manual details the modes of operation and applications where each would be used. Phase 2 - Program the ESTeem for operation in the wireless network. Once the correct mode of operation for the ESTeem has been determined, the 195C/M can be programmed for the wireless network. To simplify the programming of the Model 195C/M, ESTeem has created a software utility called the ESTeem 195 Narrow Band Configuration Tool which is used to configure the wireless modem for use in the network. The configuration utility can be installed from the ESTeem Resource Disk or from the ESTeem web site (www.esteem.com). Chapter 6 (Utilities and Features) of this Users Manual will guide you in the installation of the software and detailed operating guide. The ESTeem Model 195C/M can also be programmed through individual software commands listed in Appendix A (Software Commands) of this Users Manual. Phase 3 - Install the ESTeem hardware and test communication. After the ESTeem Model 195C/Ms programming, install the hardware in each remote location. Chapter 7 of this Users Manual describes the antenna specifications, mounting options and the configuration of the pole mounting hardware for the ESTeem. For instructions on testing and troubleshooting the wireless link, refer to Chapter 6 (Utilities and Features). Model 195C/M Hardware Layout To begin the configuration, unpack the ESTeem Model 195C/M shipping boxes and locate the items below for initial configuration. Take a few minutes to inventory your equipment before you proceed. Report any missing or damaged items to Customer Support (509-735-9092) as soon as possible. Each node in your ESTeem Model 195C/Ms network may have different hardware components based upon the final installation location (i.e. Outdoor, Indoor, Point-to-point or Muti-Point). Antenna types, cable lengths, power supplies may be different, but the following items will be required for basic setup:

Determining the correct mode of operation for the ESTeem is the first step in creating a reliable wireless network. This chapter will explain each mode of operation, provide example applications and detailed programming information for each mode. Please review the following modes of operations. If you do not see an example of your application, please contact ESTeem support at 509-735-9092 for help in selecting your mode of operation. Transparent Point to Point Application The most commonly used mode of operation with the ESTeem Model 195C/M is the transparent mode. Point to point operation is when two serial or Ethernet devices are transferring information between either other, directly or through a repeater (Figures 1 and 2). The type of serial data interface (RS-232, RS-422, RS-485 or Ethernet) on either end of the wireless link is configurable and can be independent on each side. For example, the Main Office in Figure 1 can be configured for RS-232 operation, while the serial port at the remote site can be configured for RS-485. Example Applications Point to point serial interfaces (RS-232, RS-422 or RS-485) Point to point wireless Ethernet communication devices Remote Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) networks Applications Where Transparent Mode Not Used Multiple Remote Locations PLC Emulation Networks (see PLC Emulation below) Connections to large Ethernet traffic networks such as large office buildings or plant networks Figure 1: Point to Point Example Revised: 10 Feb 14 3-1 EST P/N AA107-195CM CHAPTER 3 EXAMPLE APPLICATIONS Figure 2: Point to Point with Repeater Revised: 10 Feb 14 3-2 EST P/N AA107-195CM CHAPTER 3 EXAMPLE APPLICATIONS Transparent Multipoint Application The ESTeem 195C and 195M can be configured multipoint transparent operation (Figure 3). Similar to point to point applications, the 195C/M can support multiple serial data interfaces (RS-232, RS-422, RS-485 or Ethernet) on either end of the wireless link. These wireless links are independent of each other and configurable. Example Applications Point to multipoint serial networks (RS-232, RS-422 or RS-485) Point to multipoint wireless Ethernet communication devices Applications Where Transparent Mode Not Used PLC Emulation Networks (see PLC Emulation below) Simple network connections (see transparent point to point) Figure 3: Point to Multipoint Transparent Example Revised: 10 Feb 14 3-3 EST P/N AA107-195CM CHAPTER 3 EXAMPLE APPLICATIONS PLC Emulation Applications The ESTeem 195C and 195M can support PLC based networks in both point to point and multipoint applications. The PLC emulation driver allows the ESTeem to identify the destination address in the PLC message block and change the ESTeem destination address to match. This PLC emulation allows the ESTeem 195C/M to support multiple repeaters in a network

(Figure 4). If repeaters are used with PLC emulation, the route and append table will also need configured (see Chapter 4 for complete details).

Revised: 10 Feb 14 3-11 EST P/N AA107-195CM Figure 10: PLC Emulation Selection CHAPTER 4 REPEATING FEATURES Any ESTeem Model 195C or 195M in the wireless network can be used as a repeater to reach a remote location. Manually entering repeater routes in a terminal for testing a connection (connect command) or remote programming (program command) is as simple as adding the routing in the address with the repeaters identified by commas. For example using Figure 1, if your computer is connected to the ESTeem 195C/M at the Master Station and you want to connect to address 21, your command would be connect 3,21. Also if you wished to connect to address 30 from the Master Station your command would be connect 3,20,40,30. Configuring Route and Append Tables When using the PLC emulation modes, the repeater configuration will be different for the Master and Remote locations in a network. You will need to configure the repeater routing table for the Master ESTeem only. The Master ESTeem is the ESTeem connected to the PLC that is initiating communication to remote PLCs through other remote stations. Do not program the repeater configuration in the repeating ESTeems or the remote ESTeems. Figure 1 shows a complex, 16 node site with four (4) repeater routes. This example will illustrate the terms used in the utility and how they correspond to the stations in your site. Look in Figure 1 and note that four of the ESTeems will relay the radio signal for other ESTeems (addresses 3, 5, 20 and 40). These are the repeater routes. A total of four repeater routes will need to be completed for this site. Figure 1: Repeater Example Technical Tip: A repeater route consists of any ESTeem in the network that repeats information to another modem. Technical Tip: The maximum number of memory locations for any ESTeem is 32. When possible, try and group as many addresses together as you can to save available memory locations. Route 1: To complete the first repeater route entry, refer to Figure 1 and find repeater address 5 (Route 1). The ESTeem/PLC addresses that use this route are addresses 25-28. In the 195C/M Configuration Utility select the Route/Append tab and press the Edit Tables button (Figure 2 will be displayed). In Route Entry 01 enter the repeater address (Address 5). Scroll down the page and find Append Entry 01 and enter the Repeater Route and address group and will use this repeater site (Figure 3). Note: ESTeem addresses are input to the Append Entry section in blocks of two numbers. The two numbers represent a range of addresses for a given route. The numbers could be input to cover a range of addresses (such as 25,28 contain all addresses from 25 through 28) or input to cover a single address (such as 25,25 would only attach address 25 to this route). Figure 3: Route 1 Configuration Figure 2: Route and Append Edit Revised: 24 Jan 14 4-1 EST P/N AA107-195CM CHAPTER 4 REPEATING FEATURES Figure 4: Route 2 Configuration Route 2: Refer to Figure 1 and find Route 2. This route has a repeater address of 3 and addresses 20 through 21 use this route. Note: Although address 20 is a repeater for another route, it requires an ESTeem address and needs to be counted. Type 3 in the first repeater block, 20 in the first address field and 21 in the second (Figure 4). Route 3: Refer to Figure 1, Route 3 and notice there are two repeaters in this route (addresses 3 and 20). A repeater route always follows the address path from the master station. The first repeater address from the master in this route is address 3. Type 3 in the first repeater block. The second repeater from the master is address 20. Type 20 in the second repeater block. Addresses 40 through 42 use this route. Type 40 in the first address field, 42 in the second (Figure 5). Route 4: This fourth route uses a total of three repeaters. Follow the address route from the master and notice that the first repeater is address 3. Type 3 in the first repeater block. The second address from the master in this route is address 20. Type 20 in the second repeater block. The third repeater address from the master is address 40. Type 40 in the third repeater block. (Figure 6). Notice that the two addresses that use this repeater route are not sequential, by putting 30 in the first block and 35 in the second would allocate addresses 31-

34 to this route. In this example we will input each address separately. On the first line type 30 in both blocks and on the second line use the same repeater route number and type 35 in both blocks (Figure 6). Once all repeater routes are addressed, press the Write Tables button to save to the connected ESTeem 195C or 195M.

Figure 7: Saved Repeater and Route Data Revised: 24 Jan 14 4-3 EST P/N AA107-195CM CHAPTER 5 ETHERNET APPLICATIONS The ESTeem Model 195C and 195M have a Full and Half-Duplex Auto-negotiation interface supporting both 10 Mbps and 100 Mbps (10/100BaseT). The port is compatible with TIA/EIA-568B cable configuration (Figure 1). The Ethernet port is used for both programming the Model 195C/M and data transfer. Figure 1: Ethernet Interface Programming Using the Ethernet Port The Ethernet port on the 195C/M is used as the primary interface when programming with the 195 Narrowband Configuration Utility. For complete information on the use of the utility program, please refer to Chapter 6 (Utilities and Features) in the users manual. You can also access the 195C/M via Telnet using the Ethernet port. The Telnet interface will open a console port to the ESTeem 195C/M (Figure 2). Figure 2: Telnet Console Session Revised: 4 Feb 14 5-1 EST P/N AA107-195CM CHAPTER 5 ETHERNET APPLICATIONS Ethernet Bridge Mode The mode of operation for transfer of Ethernet data over an ESTeem 195C or 195M wireless network is the Ethernet Bridge Mode. This mode is primarily used to gather data from remote Ethernet devices such as RTUs or PLCs in supervisory control networks (SCADA). Bridging Ethernet networks with these narrowband wireless modems will not work. Technical Tip: The ESTeem 195C/M do not support Spanning Tree Protocol the Ethernet bridge so all network loops will have to be resolved by network layout.

(STP) on Technical Tip: The ESTeem 195C/M have a very low

(9,600bps) RF data rate and can not be used to bridge large Ethernet networks. There are two software commands that need to be enable to activate the Ethernet bridge mode:

Ethernet Bridge (eth_bridge on/off ) This command will enable or disable the bridge. ARP Proxy (arpproxy on/off) This command will instruct the ESTeem 195C/M to use the Route and Append table to control the Ethernet IP protocol destinations. To control the Ethernet data flow in the wireless network, the Ethernet bridge mode uses the Route and Append tables discussed in detail in Chapter 4. Not only is the Route and Append tables used for any repeaters in the Ethernet network, it is also used to define where to find remote IP addresses in the wireless network. Figure 3 below shows an example wireless Ethernet network layout:

Figure 3: Ethernet Bridge Example Revised: 4 Feb 14 5-2 EST P/N AA107-195CM CHAPTER 5 ETHERNET APPLICATIONS The configuration of the Route and Append list for an Ethernet bridge is very similar to the configuration for repeaters. The main difference is that the last octet of IP addresses will be used in a Group in the append table to identify which address is the ESTeem 195C/M. The ESTeem address in the group will always be the lowest number (see examples below). Unlike a repeater configuration for serial PLC emulation modes, the return path from the remote to the master must also be configured in the route and append tables. If a repeater route is not used to communicate to a remote site a blank repeater route number is used. Using Figure 3 for an example, the configuration of the Master Sites route and append table would look like Figure 4. Note that all IP addresses in the network are identified in the append table of the Master Site. The return paths to the Master site must also be identified in all remote sites. Figure 5 show the return path entries from Remote 2 through the repeater. The route and append configuration for the return path from both Remote 1 and Remote 3 will be the same as shown in Figure 6. Using the Ethernet Port as a Serial Data Interface The Ethernet port on the 195C/M can be configured as the serial data interface (SDI) to be used by software applications to transport data. The configuration and operation of this mode is outside the scope of this Users Manual and is available in an Engineering Report. For specific information on this mode of operation and programming examples, please contact customer support at 509-735-9092.

Figure 7: Model 195C/M Configuration Utility Read Configuration The 195 Series Narrow Band Configuration Tool provides a graphical interface to the individual software commands for the ESTeem 195C or 195M. On the Configuration tab the software commands can be displayed by their category. All - Display the status of all software commands (Figure 6) Change Display commands changed from factory default Network Ethernet network commands Interface Port configuration commands PLC PLC emulation commands Radio Radio configuration commands Pressing the Read Config button with any of the above radials selected will display the commands associated with the selection. Read Remote 195C or 195M Configuration The software commands can read in the same way from a remote ESTeem 195C/M through the wireless network. A direct path entry or repeater route can be used to read the configuration. For example in Figure 7, the commands listed were read from ESTeem address 184 using address 183 as a repeater (183,184). If the repeater routes are already defined for the network (using the Route/Append tables), you can just enter the destination address and check the Use Route from Append Table check box. Write Configuration Any software command displayed after reading the configuration can be modified. Once the commands have been changed, press the Write Config button. The modem will save the changes and reboot. The wire configuration can also be sent through repeaters. For example in Figure 7, the commands listed were written to ESTeem address 184 using address 183 as a repeater (183,184). If the repeater routes are already defined for the network (using the Route/Append tables), you can just enter the destination address and check the Use Route from Append Table check box. Reset Unit Pressing the Reset Unit button performs the same action as pressing the Reset button on the face of the 195C/M. The modem will discard any unsaved commands and read the program from the non-volatile memory. This can be performed on a remote ESTeem. Factory Defaults Pressing the Factory Defaults button will reset the software commands to factory default settings (see Appendix A for all default values). Factory defaults does not reset address, frequency or squelch settings. Revised: 7 Feb 14 6-3 EST P/N AA107-195CM CHAPTER 6 UTILITIES & FEATURES though Modbus Monitoring The ESTeem 195C/M support ModbusTCP protocol for access to multiple operating parameters in the wireless modem. Receive signal strengths, background noise, input voltage, and packet transmissions are a few of the parameter available the open ModbusTCP protocol. There are multiple methods for extracting the data from the 195C/M, but the Configuration Utility has simple data interface on the Configuration Tab. Pressing the Modbus Monitoring button once will start the data monitor of either the local ESTeem 195C/M or the remote defined in the Route/Append tab (Figure 7). Note: For remote Modbus Monitoring, the route to the remote locations MUST be defined in the Route and Append tables. See Chapters 4 and 5 for routing configuration. The 195 Narrowband Configuration Utility will update the current status of the operating parameters until the Modbus Monitoring button is pressed a second time. If multiple repeaters are required to access a remote or the Modbus monitoring is used on a busy network, the Modbus Timeout parameter may need to be adjusted. The following are the Modbus registers supported in the ESTeem 195C and 195M on Port 502. Registers are mapped as 32-bit floating point numbers (2 registers each):

1000 (4-20 mA channel 1) 1002 (4-20 mA channel 2) 1004 (4-20 mA channel 3) 1006 (4-20 mA channel 4) 1008 (MCU temperature in F) 1010 (Auxiliary voltage - 0 if not connected) 1012 (Instantaneous RSSI dBm from non-ESTeem 192/195 radios) 1014 (Radio uptime in seconds) 1016 (Total RX bytes received) 1018 (Total TX bytes sent) 1020 (Number of header blocks / short packets (UA, SABM, etc) received) 1022 (Number of long packets received (> 1 block)) 1024 (Number of transmitted packets) 1026 (Number of failed error correction on headers) 1028 (Number of failed error correction on data) 1030 (Number of re-transmits (if retries and acks enabled)) 1032 (Average noise floor in dBm) 1034 (Power level of last valid packet received from ESTeem 192/195) 1036 (0/1 Ethernet link up/down) 1038 (Model Serial Number) Figure 7: Modbus Monitoring Screen Revised: 7 Feb 14 6-4 EST P/N AA107-195CM CHAPTER 6 UTILITIES & FEATURES Example of using modpoll utility with 195 narrow band series modpoll -l 2000 -o 2 -m tcp -r 1000 -c 19 -t3:float -a 101 172.18.9.5

Figure 10: Save and Load Configuration Revised: 7 Feb 14 6-6 EST P/N AA107-195CM CHAPTER 7 ANTENNA SETUPS ESTeem offers different types of antennas ranging from wave to 5/8 wave in physical size. The user choice is dependent on the application. Communications in the VHF and UHF bands are normally over "Line of Sight (LOS)". Looking from the antenna of one wireless modem you must be able to see the antenna of the wireless modem you wish to communicate with. If a large object obstructs the line of sight view it is unlikely that satisfactory communications will result. This means you must relocate the antennas or use the REPEATER FEATURE and a second modem to go over or around the object. The Model 195C and 195M products are allowed by the FCC to use high gain directional antennas. It is noted that a wave antenna that does not have ground plane radials requires a ground plane to operate at maximum efficiency. This can simply be a conducting surface under the antenna that is a wavelength in diameter. For the Model 195C

(450-470 MHz) this is approximately 6.5 inches. A conducting surface can be anything from the rooftop of an automobile to a file cabinet. Coax Cables To minimize signal loss, the overall length of the coaxial cable should be as short as possible. To avoid corrosion select coaxial cable manufacturers with tinned copper braid, where possible. Listed below are representative cable losses in db/100ft at the VHF and UHF frequencies:

-1.45 In a severe noise environment it may be desirable to use a double shield type of coax cable such as RG-214/U. Note: Pre-made coax cables can be purchased from the factory. A -3 dB loss means you have lost 1/2 of your signal. A +3 dB gain means you have doubled (x2) your signal. Keep the antenna feedline as short as possible to minimize losses. Extreme care must be taken when attaching coax connectors to the antenna feedlines. If there is any error in making this connection the output of the transmitter will be greatly reduced. Revised 4 Feb 14 7-1 EST P/N AA107-195CM CHAPTER 7 ANTENNA SETUPS Weather Proofing Coax Connections 1. Lightly coat the threads of the connectors with silicone lubricant prior to assembly (See Note 1) and hand tighten. Make sure to use the silicon sparingly so when assembled, any excess does not get on center conductor. Care should be taken not to get any lubricant on the center conductor. 2. Wrap the connector assembly with a non-adhesive silicone tape, EST part number AA243, for weather proofing (See Note 2 and instructions below). a) Clean surface to be wrapped. Cut off length to be used. b) Peel back a short length of protective film. Keep tape clean and dry. c) Begin with one complete overlap of tape onto itself. d) STRETCH CoaxWrap while continuing to wrap object with half-laps, removing clear film as you go (Figure 1). For greater pressure resistance, use 2 or more tightly wrapped layers. e) End of tape at final wrap should be completely positioned onto itself. Note: CoaxWraps bond begins to cure immediately upon contact with itself. Repositioning or removal is not recommended after 2 minutes of wrapping. 3. Apply an electrical coating (sealing agent), over the vapor barrier patch for added Figure 1: Installation Example protection (See Note 3). NOTES:

1. Dow Corning RTV-3140 or equivalent. 3. SCOTCHKOTE, 3-M Company, or equivalent. 2. CoaxWrap, CW10B or equivalent. Grounding All building mount antennas require attachment to a good earth ground for optimum efficiency. Contact a reputable local communications shop for procedures for your area. Lightning Arrestors Lightning arrestors should be used on all external building mount antennas for personal protection and to minimize damage to the transceiver during lightning storms. The units should be installed as per manufacturers instructions provided with the device. Enabling Transmitter for SWR Testing The ESTeem 195C and 195M are packet burst wireless modems, so measurement of the forward and reflected power during operation is difficult.

Each data interface is accessible through one of the four RJ-45 ports in the front panel of the Model 195C/M (Figure 1). During the configuration of the modem, one of these ports is configured as the serial data interface (SDI). All data ports not configured as the SDI are available for console programming. This chapter will provide the pin-outs and configuration of each communication and sensor port. Figure 1: Model 195C/M Data Interfaces Revised: 4 Feb 14 APX B-1 EST P/N AA107-195CM APPENDIX B INTERFACE PORTS Ethernet Port (Port 2) The ESTeem Model 195C and 195M have a Full and Half-Duplex Auto-negotiation interface supporting both 10 Mbps and 100 Mbps (10/100BaseT). The port is compatible with TIA/EIA-568B cable configuration (Figure 2). A standard Ethernet patch cable (AA09.2) can be used to interface the 195C/M to a computer. The Ethernet port is used for both programming the Model 195C/M and data transfer. Figure 2: Ethernet Interface RS-232C Data Ports (Ports 3 and 4) The ESTeem Model 195C/M has two RS-232C data interfaces on the front panel. Port 3 has a full RS-232 interface with handshake, while Port 4 has only Transmit, Receive and Ground. Port 4 will generally be used only when the 195C/M is pole mounted with remote power.

To ease access to these ports the AA066 (Figure 3) cable adapter is available. The RJ-45 interface can be inserted into either Port 1 (RS-485) or Port 2 (RS-422) and the corresponding signal lines (Figure 1) can be inserted in the screw terminals. Note: Verify the screw terminal cover is attached to the cable before termination. 4/20mA Sensor Inputs (Port 1) The ESTeem Model 195C/M have four independent 4/20mA inputs sensors that can be read through either ModbusTCP protocol

(See Chapter 6) or through the sread software command from a serial port.

Figure 3: AA066 Cable Adapter Revised: 4 Feb 14 APX B-3 EST P/N AA107-195CM APPENDIX C MODEL 192 INTEGRATION Technical Tip: The ESTeem Model 192 network MUST be configured for narrow band (12.5 kHz) operation before Model 195C/M integration. Figure 1: Model 192 Integration Diagram Model Series 192 Integration The ESTeem Model 195C and 195M were designed to be downward compatible with the legacy ESTeem Model 192 series of wireless modems. The Model 192 series had been in production since 1996 with several generational changes in the product lifespan. The manufacturing variations throughout this time require that a new ESTeem Model 195C/M be trained to communicate with an existing Model 192 network. This training process (described below) will allow the Model 195C/M to recognize any change in deviation in the older radios and adjust accordingly. If an ESTeem 195C/M is added to an existing Model 192 network, it is highly recommended the Model 195C/M is installed at a remote location and not the Master or Repeater location of the Model 192 network (Figure 1). If the 195C/M is required to be used as the Master or Repeater site, train the radio modem to one of the remote locations and then test all wireless links from that location. The Model 195C/M configuration utility can be used to provide local signal strength (RSSI) information but can not gather information from a Model 192 because the process uses ModbusTCP protocol only available in the 195C/M. The ESTeem Model 192 configuration utilitys diagnostic can be used to test the operation of the wireless network but must be run from the Model 192 side of the wireless network. For example in Figure 1, the diagnostic utility (Polling Test) must be run from the Master SCADA location. Configuring Model 195C/195M for Model 192 The ESTeem Model 195C and 195M must be trained to communicate with an ESTeem Model 192. The training completed using the 195 Series Narrow Band Configuration Utility and selecting the 192 Compatibility tab. Select Remote and enter the remote address of the ESTeem Model 192 in the utility and press the Train to Remote button (Figure 2). The Model 195C/M will begin training to the remote ESTeem and will save the configuration once complete (Figure 2). Verify the communication using both the 195C/M and Model 192 configuration utilities.
