Connect the CIO-WENET

The CIO-WENET I/O module connects to the In-Sight Micro 1000 series vision system over Ethernet and provides eight digital inputs and eight digital outputs. The IP address set at the factory is 192.168.0.1, and in most cases, you'll want to change this before you can use the device.

Note:
  • The CIO-WENET I/O module is obsolete and no longer available for purchase, however these modules are still supported within In-Sight Explorer for backward compatibility only.
  • The CIO-WENET Ethernet I/O module does not support serial communication.

Power Connection

CAUTION:  Using incorrect supply voltage can result in system damage.

Power is supplied to the CIO-WENET using the 24V (-15% /+20%) supply connections. Power can then be jumpered to other modules or devices. In a typical configuration, you would use the ACC-24I to power the CIO-WENET. In this arrangement, you would jumper power from the power supply to the CIO-WENET power supply connections.

Assigning an IP Address

The CIO-WENET is shipped with a default IP Address (192.168.0.1) and Subnet Mask (255.255.0.0). If these settings aren't appropriate for your configuration, use the following steps to install the bootp server and assign an IP address to the device.

  1. Determine the IP address that you'll use for the CIO-WENET. Record this value and save it in a safe place.
  2. Use a cross-over Ethernet cable to connect the device directly to a computer with an IP address in the 192.168.xxx.xxx subnet (192.168.0.4, for example). Do not use 192.168.0.1.
  3. Open a browser on the connected computer and go to 192.168.0.1. You should see the Wago Web-based Management page.
  4. Click on TCP/IP in the navigation list on the left side of the page.
  5. Enter admin and wago for the User Name and Password and click the OK button.
  6. Change the default IP Address to the device's assigned IP address.
  7. Change the Subnet Mask if needed.
  8. Click the SUBMIT button.
  9. Turn off the CIO-WENET and disconnect it from the computer.
  10. Use a standard Ethernet cable to connect the CIO-WENET to your network.

  11. Power up the device and use a browser from a computer on the network to go to the device and view its web management page.

    Note: You can also change the device's IP address using a bootp server, which is available with the In-Sight Explorer 4.1.0 or later. Normally, the bootp protocol is disabled on the CIO-WENET. If it is enabled, the device won't function on power-up unless a bootp server is available to assign its IP address. If you want to use the bootp server, you first need to use the device's Wago Web-based Management page from a browser to enable the bootp protocol.
  12. You can use the I/O Module Configuration dialog to configure the I/O module for use within In-Sight Explorer. Once the I/O module is configured, you can configure the discrete input and output lines as needed. For more information, see I/O Module Configuration.

I/O Connections

  • The 750-403 digital input modules receive control signals from digital field devices (vision systems, switches, etc.). Each module is a 2- to 3-conductor device and has four input channels (DI 1-4), for a total of eight.

  • The 750-540 digital output modules send control signals to digital field devices. Each module has four output channels (D0 1-4), for a total of eight.
