Alarm at occurrence of failure in wireless communications
Supported (Displayed on FWMC)
Battery life of routing device
5 or more years for 5 child devices at
update in 30 s cycle
*6
Direct communication between wireless devices
Not supported
*1
Only an Auto I/O device is possible for an automatic setup of a route. An I/O device and a routing device need to fix a route.
*2
Configuring the channel black list decreases the number of available hopping patterns.
*3
Including a routing device
*4
Maximum number of connectable field wireless devices when using periodic communication (Publish) and Modbus read access.
The number of connectable field wireless devices decrease if the Modbus Write communication is used together.
*5
The number of connectable devices depends the number of hops. If many field wireless devices are connected to a place with
many hops, the number of simultaneously connectable devices decreases.
*6
It is battery-life prediction when YTA510 (DEVREV1) is used as routing device and sets up the updating cycle of 3,600 seconds.
*7
The field wireless device specified so that either or both of routes are connected to the YFGW510. A routing device is not used.
*8
The field wireless device specified so that either or both of routes are connected to a routing device. The field wireless device is
connected to YFGW510 via a routing device.
*9
Number of field wireless devices that can be connected as the next hop of a single routing device
If there is a firewall between YFGW410 and YFGW510 or YFGW410 and the host system, fol-
lowing services should be allowed on the firewall.
