WDT-5E-Z2 AirGRID Wireless Data Communication System, Transmitter
Caution
Product Description
Enhances device information visibility when added to an existing stacked signal light (our LE type).
[Features]
· Wireless data communication systems can be established simply by incorporating into existing PATLITE signal lamps.
· Data is collected from the signal lights, so data collection is possible regardless of how old or new equipment is and regardless of manufacturer.
· Easy installation by removing the signal light top cap and fixing it with the internal screw.
* One of the signal wires for power supply of the transmitter will be used.
· WD-Z2 is equipped with a new counter function (when counter mode is set).
· Wireless type that achieves easy visualization of production results and progress at low cost.
· The wireless system eliminates wiring routing, drastically reducing the initial installation cost as compared to wired facility construction.
· As protocol of WD series and WD-Z2 series are compatible, data to PC can be managed collectively.
* As the wireless standard is different between the WD and WD-Z2 series, they cannot be used with a transceiver interconnected.

Product Features Details
[Network connection status]
The WD System enables wireless data acquisition of equipment statuses, regardless of the machine’s age or model.
Users can obtain real-time statuses and monitor their equipment remotely. This data can be collected and analyzed to improve predictive maintenance, identify bottlenecks and maximize OEE.
Technical information and design ideas
Wiring diagram
To operate the transmitter, a constant power supply is required.
As shown in the diagram on the left, apply constant power to one unused signal line as a power supply line. (Example: When supplying power from the white signal line)

Unit: mm
Example of use
[Transmitter installation]
Installation is simple; just attach the transmitter bracket (A) to the signal light, secure it with the signal light sensor screw, and then
attach the top cover (B) from above.
(Some wiring may be required.)
Transmitter must be used with a WD Receiver.
