Renkforce PL500D WiFi
If you would like, you can completely shut off the Wi-Fi part of your
PL500D WiFi, e.g. if you want to operate it exclusively as
a simple PLC
device via the built-in Ethernet connections. There are three different meth-
ods for switching the Wi-Fi function on and off:
Press the ON/OFF button on the front panel of the device.
Use the Enable WLAN or Disable WLAN button on the configuration inter-
face under WLAN configuration.
E
nable the Wi-Fi time control. For more information, refer to Chapter 'WLAN
time control'.
Keep in mind that after saving this setting, you will be dis
connected from any
existing wireless connection to the PL500D WiFi. In this case, configure the
device via E
thernet or PLC.
The operating state of the device is displayed under 'Status overview'.
4.5.1 Access point
Since the PL500D WiFi acts as an access point, you have to configure vari-
ous parameters for your wireless network.
When activating the encryption, make sure that
the WLAN settings (SSID,
encryption mode and encryption key) of the access point always correspond
to the settings of the clients, as otherwise you will be (unintentionally) exclud-
ing devices from your network.
In the factory defaults of the PL500D WiFi, the WLAN function is enabled and
the WPA2 WLAN encryption is
set with the security ID as the standard WLAN
key. You will find the 16-character security ID on the label on the back of the
housing.
The SSID specifies the name of your wireless network. You can see this
name when logging onto the WLAN and thereby identify the corre
ct subnet.
If you enable the Hide SSID option, your wireless network remains hidden.
In this ca
se, potential network users must know the exact SSID and enter it
manually to be able to set up a connection.
Some WLAN adapters have difficulty connecting
to such hidden wireless net-
works. If the connection to a hidden SSID poses problems, first try to set up
the connection with
a visible SSID and only then try to hide it.
