The FX70 Wi-Fi card provides Wireless-Fidelity (Wi-Fi) Installation Local Area Network (LAN) connectivity using the Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers (IEEE) We recommend that you remove the controller from 802.11 b/g standard, seen as Interface 3 in the any mounting, and use a flat, well-lit, anti-static (ESD Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol (TCP/ safe) surface to install this adapter card in the IP) Configuration of the FX70 Supervisory Controller. controller. You install the FX70 Wi-Fi card in the controller’s Mini Before installation, be sure to carefully attach of the PCI slot, using a short micro-coax cable that allows the micro-coax cable to the Mini-PCI Wi-Fi card. included stub antenna to be mounted on the controller. Parts Included A 6.6 ft. (2 m) coax extension cable and bracket is also This package includes the following items: included. • a Mini PCI 802.11b/g network adapter card • a short micro-coax cable with a U.FL connector end and an RP-SMA coax end (for the antenna) • a tilt-and-swivel, RP-SMA 2.4 GHz stub antenna • a 6.6 ft (2 m) RP-SMA-type coax extension cable and metal bracket for relocating the antenna FX70 - Wi-Fi Card Installation Instructions 1 • a 6.56 ft (2 m) SMA coax antenna cable IMPORTANT: Be careful to attach this micro-coax cable correctly.

Special Tools Needed The following supplies and tools are required: • 1/4 inch (6 mm) nut driver (NiMH battery bracket). • #2 Phillips screwdriver (for shield and card screws) • anti-static mat or equivalent ESD safe work surface • long-nose pliers (to grip and remove antenna connector cutout in plastic cover) • appropriate tools and screws for mounting the antenna bracket, if used Mounting Pre-installation Before you install the FX70 Wi-Fi card, you must attach the micro-coax cable to the tiny Main J1 coax port on the card. Use Hirose U.FL coaxial connector to attach this Figure 2: Mini-PCI Wi-Fi Card and Micro-Coax cable (Figure 2). Cable WARNING: Risk of Electric Shock. Disconnect power supply before making Keep the connector square to the card. You should feel ! electrical connections. Contact with a small click while squeezing the connector onto the components carrying hazardous voltage card’s Main J1 antenna port (Figure 3). can cause electric shock and may result in severe personal injury or death. AVERTISSEMENT: Risque de décharge électrique. Débrancher l'alimentation avant de réaliser tout branchement électrique. Tout contact avec des composants conducteurs de tensions dangereuses risque d'entraîner une décharge électrique et de provoquer des blessures graves, voire mortelles.

Otherwise, damage occurs. Also, when you install a card, you must be very careful to plug the card into Note: You can install the without removing the its connector properly (pins aligned). battery/bracket from the shield. However, removing the battery/bracket makes it easier to move the Before you mount the Wi-Fi card, you must first shield around later, when fastening the antenna complete the installation of the micro-coax cable. See coax connector in the shield hole. Pre-installation. Installation also involves the removal and subsequent replacement of any installed card in Slot 1 (to remove and replace the metal shield). Note: Any card in Slot 2 can remain in place. 1. Back up the FX70 controller's configuration to your computer using FX Workbench. 2. Remove power from the FX70. Note: If a 12 V sealed lead acid backup battery is attached, disconnect the battery from the controller. Wait for all LED activity to stop. This should take several seconds. All LEDs on the FX70 should be off. Figure 6: Remove Two Nuts and Battery Pack, 3. Remove the controller from any mounting and Bracket place it on a flat, well-lit surface. 4. Remove the controller’s cover. To remove the controller’s cover, press in the four tabs on both ends of the unit, and lift the cover off.
