Wireless Adapter - Advanced is a USB-based wireless adapter that enables Zigbee TM wireless connectivity with an RP-C controller, AS-P server, or AS-B server, extending the controller's or server's point count and bringing flexibility in retrofit applications.

The adapter can communicate over the Zigbee wireless protocol with up to 20 wireless devices.

The adapter works seamlessly within the EcoStruxure BMS so that Zigbee objects become easily available to the user.

The adapter’s compact design allows it to plug in to RP-C controllers or automation servers in tight spaces and the optional mounting cradle, wall plate, and USB cable extension allow for the choice of a wall, ceiling, or exterior of the enclosure mount to maximize the transmission and reception of signals from distributed Zigbee devices.

The adapter is plugged into the USB host port on the RP-C controller, AS-P server, or AS-B server. The adapter is powered by the RP-C controller or automation server, which also provides transient protection to the adapter.

The adapter must be professionally installed to avoid harmful interference to radio communications and to maintain the regulatory compliance and approvals for the device. Für weitere Informationen siehe Wireless Adapter - Advanced Regulatory Compliance and Approvals .

In WorkStation, the firmware of the adapter will be automatically updated when you update the RP-C controller or automation server to which it is connected.

  2. Ensure that you have the proper mounting hardware.

  3. Find a suitable location on the enclosure for mounting the adapter.

  4. Make a hole to mount and fasten the cradle using one of the following methods:

    • Create a 32 mm (1.250 inches) diameter mounting hole in the front panel of the metal enclosure.

    • Remove a pre-punched knockout, a punched out, removable disc on the sides of the metal enclosure.
