•The staff must be thoroughly familiar with all warnings, instructions and

requirements contained in this manual.

•The corresponding local safety, protective and installation requirements must be

met.

The user is solely responsible for selecting the correct products and technical version in

accordance with the corresponding local regulations.

WARNING

2.1 Qualified persons

The installation, configuration for operation, commissioning and servicing of

wienet

access points may only be

carried out by qualified persons.

Qualified persons:

•have appropriate technical training and

•have access to the assembly instructions and the user manual for the

wienet

access points, which have

been read and understood.

2.2 Intended use

The

wienet

access point has a WLAN interface (IEEE 802.11 n/b/g) and an Ethernet-10/100 MBit/s connection

and can be operated in various modes. The device has been designed to connect wired Ethernet-10/100 MBit/s

networks or devices with other networks or network devices via WLAN.

Please observe the following instructions:

•Do not use the access point for any other purposes.

•The access point may only be used in accordance with current international and

national regulations, as well as in accordance with all special restrictions on the

use of the access points in prescribed applications and environments.

•Only use original accessories to prevent injuries as well as damage to the devices

and to ensure that all relevant regulations have been adhered to. Prohibited

changes or the use of non-approved accessories may damage the access point

and violate existing laws. Prohibited changes or the use of non-approved

accessories may result in the invalidity of warranty claims.

•The access point may not be opened.

•The voltage at the feeder connection of the access point may not be exceeded

(see 9 Technical data).

•Do not expose the access point to extreme environmental conditions. Protect the

access point against dust, humidity and high temperatures.

•It is recommended that you make a copy or backup of all major settings stored in

the device memory.

WARNING

3 | General information about the access point

Wieland Electric GmbH | BA001098 | 09/2016 (Rev. A) 9

3General information about the access point

The AP ETH-A and AP-ETH-A-A access points are used to establish a WLAN connection between various

devices via the Ethernet interface (10/100 MBit/s) using the Internet or LAN, or to connect various WLAN-LAN

networks with each other.

The standard AP ETH-A and AP-ETH-A-A access points have an Ethernet 10/100 MBit/s port and an integrated

WLAN interface (IEEE 802.11 n/b/g).

Configuration is carried out via a password-protected web interface. The web interface provides detailed

statistics about the activities of the access point and the signal strength, as well as a detailed log. The access

point supports functions such as DHCP and NTP, among others. Thanks to the OpenWRT open-source

operating system on which it is based, the access point can be configured and operated in many ways.

Examples of potential applications:

•Extension of an Ethernet cable network by adding WLAN functions

•Integration of wired network devices (e.g. PLC controls) into an existing WLAN

•Replacement of network connections that are difficult to wire with transparent WLAN bridges

•Expansion of existing WLAN networks

4Scope of supply

The basic access point scope of supply includes the following:

•Access point
