B1.2.1 Preparations

Network Design
To construct a field wireless network, the following items must be determined beforehand.
Namely, a network ID, a device tag of the field wireless device to use, and network information for
connecting YFGW710 by Ethernet.
This information is necessary for the system engineer and the person in charge of the devices to
perform their tasks, and this information must be shared by both to efficiently construct the field
wireless network.
l
Network ID
Determine the network ID (2 to 65535) of the field wireless network comprising YFGW710 and a
field wireless device. The network ID in the example of Figure B1-2 is 100.
l
Selecting the field wireless device to use and check the device information
Check the vendor ID, model ID, and device revision of the field wireless device to use.
l
Device tag
A name assigned to the field wireless device for identifying the device. Set a name that is unique
on the wireless network in the same field. The device tag in the example of Figure B1-2 is DEV_
001.
l
Network parameters for Ethernet connection
Network parameters necessary to connect YFGW710 and the PCs to Ethernet. Namely, IP ad-
dress, subnet mask, and default gateway. Do not use identical IP addresses on the same Ether-
net.
Set the network parameters of YFGW710 and the PC1 in the example of Figure B1-2 as follows.
