Issue
What is required to configure controllers to use the wireless network adaptors?
Environment
Wireless Infinet
CX 9680 (Netcontroller II)
bCX 9640 (bCX1-INF)
i2xxx controllers
Wireless MSTP
bCX 4040 (bCX1-BACnet)
b3xxx controllers
Cause
Require more information on how to enable Continuum controller subnet to use wireless communications instead of wired communications.
Resolution
To setup and enable wireless Infinet or MSTP networks, you will require two things:
1. Firmware
There is separate Wireless Firmware that needs to be loaded into the i2xxx and b3xxx controllers to enable wireless communications. The Netcontroller II or bCX1 controller do not have a separate wireless version of the Firmware.
FW -> Ecobuildings
2. Wireless Adapters
You will need to attach wireless adapters to each controller including the master and change the commport to wireless mode.
(Note: bCX or NC2 controllers only; wireless has not been enabled in the ACX57xx controllers at this time.)
