Establishing Wireless Communication Between the WIM and
Computer
Bluetooth wireless technology enabled cards/modules installed in a
computer are typically provided with a software program to establish
communication with other wireless devices. The following example
procedure describes how to establish communication using the software
program “My Bluetooth Places” (version 1.4.2), which was included
with a specific brand Bluetooth wireless technology module. Different
versions of this software and different programs may differ in
appearance and procedures.
1. Launch the “My Bluetooth Places” program. The program window
( Figure 3.19 ) will appear.
Using DriveExplorer/DriveExplorer Lite
!
ATTENTION: Risk of injury or death exists from machine motion
when using wireless communications and software to Start/Stop/Jog,
configure or otherwise communicate with a drive.
Using the control bar feature in DriveExplorer (version 2.01 or higher)
with wireless communications may present safety hazards due to
potential loss of the wireless connection. For example, if the wireless
connection is interrupted after a start or jog command is initiated from
the control bar, the drive cannot be stopped using the control bar until
the wireless connection is restored. For this reason, it is required to
always use an additional hard-wired stop circuit to disable the drive.
