TCW122B-WD_R1 Page 3
 Clean the device only with dry cloth. Do not use a liquid cleaner or an aerosol cleaner. Do not use
a magnetic/static cleaning device (dust remover) or any kind of abrasive materials to clean the device.

10.Installation
This device must be installed by qualified personnel.
This device must not be installed directly outdoors.
Installation consists of mounting the device, connecting to an IP network, connecting inputs and
outputs, providing power and configuring via a web browser.
TCW122B-WD can be wall or flat, not flammable surface mounted, in a clean and dry location
room. Ventilation is recommended for installations where ambient air temperature is expected to be
high.
Mount the device to a wall by using two plastic dowels 8x60mm (example Würth GmbH 0912
802 002) and two dowel screws 6x70mm (example Würth GmbH 0157 06 70). Attach the screws to the
surface vertically. See Appendix-A, fig. 1 for mechanical details.
Maintain spacing from adjacent equipment. Allow 50 mm of space on all sides, as shown on fig.2
in Appendix A, this provides ventilation and electrical isolation.

11. Configuration
Please follow the steps below for proper installation :
1. Mount the controller in a dry and ventilated place.
2. Connect the Ethernet port to a 10/100MB Ethernet network. For direct connection to a PC use
a “crossover” cable.
3. Connect the I/O pins of the controller according to the required application.
4. Connect the power supply.

If the red LED (STS) blinks, the main program of controller is executed. By default TCW122B-WD
comes with the following network settings:

IP address: 192.168.1.2, Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0, Default Gateway: 192.168.1.1

Communication with TCW122B-WD can be established by assigning a temporary IP address to the

computer. This address should be in the same network (for example 192.168.1.3). To get access to the web
interface, you should type http://192.168.1.2 into the browser.

If the network settings are correct, the “Login” page will appear.
The web based interface allows configuration, monitoring and control. Recommended browser is
Internet Explorer at 1024x768 resolutions.

11.1 Login page

After opening the Login page, authorization data must be entered (by default username=admin ,
password=admin). It is recommended to change the username and password to prevent unauthorized
access to the controller.

TCW122B-WD_R1 Page 4
 The controller supports one active session – only one user can operate the device. If another user
tries to login, the message “Someone’s logged in” appears:

The active session will be terminated automatically, if the current user stays inactive for 2 minutes.

11.2 Monitoring page

After successful authorization, the “Monitoring” page appears:

The “Monitoring” page provides information about the state of the relays and digital inputs, values
of analog voltages (applied on analog inputs), temperature and humidity.
The state of the relay can be changed by appropriate “ON/OFF” button. To change the state of relay
for a while “Pulse” button should be pressed. Duration of the pulse is specified in “Pulse Duration” field of
“I/O Setup” page.

11.3 I/O setup page

I/O settings can be made here.
For temperature, humidity and analog value MIN, MAX and HISTERESYS values can be set. These
values arranged windows for monitored parameter.

TCW122B-WD_R1 Page 5
 Every going out of range generates SNMP trap (if enabled). Leaving range is considered when the
parameter goes lower than MIN values or higher than MAX. Coming back in the range is considered when
the parameter goes higher than (MIN + HISTERESYS) or lower than (MAX – HISTERESYS).

For watchdog function following parameters can be set:

 Mode – outgoing (echo request) or incoming (echo replay) mode can be chosen;
 Outgoing ping interval – time between two echo requests;
 Ping time out for restart – time out before activation of Relay;
 IP address - IP address of ICMP corresponding host;
 Maximum number of restarts – maximum number of activation of relay (restarts) after
timeout has expired.
Ping time out for restart should be longer than Outgoing ping interval.

TCW122B-WD_R1 Page 6
 Relay can be activated manually or automatically in function of ping:

When manual activation is selected, “Pulse” and “ON/OFF” buttons on “Monitoring” page are
active. The duration of pulse for relay activation can be set from 1 to 253 seconds.

Automatic monitoring page refresh interval can be set from 1 to 253 second. If 0 is chosen - no
automatic refresh.

11.4 Network Setup page

The Network parameters are set on this page. The following parameters can be changed:
 Static/DHCP – IP Address can be static or dynamic (DHCP server should be present in the
network);
 IP address, Subnet mask , Default gateway – these fields are active if IP address is static;
 DNS – these fields is mandatory, if domain names are used instead of IP addresses. By default
DNS has the same IP address as Default gateway;
 Host Name – up to 16 symbols, it appears as name in DHCP;
 MAC – device MAC address.

The good practice is to change the default IP address of controller immediately after first power-on.
This will avoid collisions if many devices are used in the same network. It may be necessary to clear the arp
cache, each time you connect a new device to the network. This is done by typing arp -d in the command
prompt window of computer.

VLAN and MAC address filtering are supported. Up to 3 MAC addresses (including Default Gateway)
can be active in MAC filtering.
Attention! If you are not familiar with VLAN and MAC filtering leave these sections by default.

TCW122B-WD_R1 Page 7
 Authentication details for WEB access to TCW122B-WD can be set in the last section. Only one user
is supported.

11.5 SNMP Setup page

TCW122B-WD supports SNMP v.1. This enables the device to be part of large monitoring and
control networks. The possible settings for “SNMP” section are:
 SNMP Configuration – enable/disable SNMP;
 SNMP Port – allows standard port changing;
 Write/Read community – performs client authentication;
 SNMP Traps – enable/disable SNMP trap messages;
 IP address – IP address of the receiving host;
 Community string – performs client authentication;
 Trap Interval - time interval in seconds for SNMP trap messages;
 Max. Traps number – maximum number of SNMP trap messages sent, if trap condition is
present.

SNMP traps are sent if:

 event occurs (status change) on Digital Input 1 or Digital Input 2;
 measured voltage on Analog Input 1 or Analog Input 2 goes outside the range;
 measured temperature goes outside the range;
 measured humidity goes outside the range;
 restart condition.

12. Application examples
The examples and diagrams in this manual are included solely for illustrative purposes. Because
of the many variables and requirements associated with any particular installation, Teracom Ltd. cannot
assume responsibility or liability for actual use based on the examples and diagrams.

12.1 Watchdog
TCW122B-WD device is set to send periodic ping to AP (Local network) and remote server
(Internet). If there is no answer in “Ping time out for restart”, the corresponding relay is activated in
order to reset particular network equipment.

12.2 Dry contact monitoring

The monitored contacts are connected to digital inputs (Din1 and Din2) and ground (GND). Changes
in state of contacts can be monitored either by WEB or SNMP interface. If SNMP traps are allowed and
properly set, every change of state will generate trap to the server.

13.1-Wire Bus
1-Wire is a registered trademark of Maxim Integrated Products, Inc. It is designed to connect
several sensors over a short wiring. The bus carries power and a single data wire. It is not suitable for

TCW122B-WD_R1 Page 9
long distances or environments with EMC interference. We strongly recommend to read Maxim’s 1-Wire
tips at http://www.maxim-ic.com/app-notes/index.mvp/id/148.
We recommend keeping the total wiring length under 60m, although functionality has been
achieved in longer distance. We cannot guarantee error-free operation over mentioned wiring length.
We guarantee proper operation only with our 1-Wire sensors series TST1XX and TSH2XX.

14. Control and monitoring using SNMP

TCW122B-WD can be configured and monitored through SNMP (Simple Network Management
Protocol). This could be done using every SNMP v.1 compatible program. Parameters that can be
changed, are grouped according to their functions in the tables below. To obtain a valid OID number it is
necessary to replace the “x” symbol with ”1.3.6.1.4.1.38783”. To save the changes configurationSaved
(OID x.3.13.0) should be set to "1".
