At this tab, register field wireless devices to be allocated under the field wireless backbone.
When registering a field wireless device, perform device provisioning in advance as described
in Chapter D1. Engineering Procedures and create a provisioning file. By importing this file, field
wireless devices can be added and registered with the device registration list.
Field wireless devices are registered as IO devices. When it is necessary to set device roles and
other functions from the setup plan, change the settings.
The types of field wireless devices are as follows.
i. Field wireless device that only supports the routing function (parameter displayed as
“Router”)
ii. Field wireless device that only supports the IO function (parameter displayed as “IO” or
“IO(Auto)”)
iii. Field wireless device that supports both the routing and IO functions and is able to run either
one or both roles at the same time
IMPORTANT
A field wireless device that supports only the routing function is not available at the moment.
Accordingly, when using the routing function, it is necessary to use a field wireless device in the
category of iii. Yokogawa’s EJX, YTA510 and YTMX580 are field wireless devices in the category
of iii. In some cases, third-party field wireless devices cannot be used as a routing device.
Devices that have IO, IO+Router, or Router roles are manually configured to connect host de-
vices according to a wireless device allocation plan. The host type roles to which devices of each
role can connect are IO+Router, Router, and Backbone Router (BBR).
In addition, devices with an IO(Auto) role are automatically set to the optimal connection destina-
tion at this time by the YFGW410 when joining the wireless network. Even in such cases, devices
with a routing function (devices with a IO+Router or Router role) must have a host device manu-
ally selected and hopping limited to three times.
Configure the necessary settings to determine the network path.

Add
When the field wireless device provisioning file is used for device registration using the pro-
cedure in this manual, this button is not used.
Edit
When a field wireless device that requires additional or changed functions settings is se-
lected and this button is clicked, the window shown in Figure D3-32 appears. Perform the
necessary changes at this window. When the row of the selected device is double clicked,
the same window appears.
Delete
When a registered field wireless device is selected and this button is clicked, the registration
is deleted.
Import
Provisioning file
Proceeds to the procedure to import the provisioning file created from the advance provi-
sioning of devices as described in Chapter D1. Engineering Procedures to register field
wireless devices.
Field wireless devices are registered using the [Import Provisioning file], [Edit], and [Delete] but-
tons.
