- MODEL 195C/M OVERVIEW
- The ESTeem Model 195C and 195M are wireless modem transceivers that can be used to build many types of Wireless Local Area Networks (WLAN). The ESTeem 195C/M series have multiple serial (RS-232, RS-422 and RS-485), Ethernet and 4/20mA sensor interfaces. The Model 195C and 195M can be configured for multiple modes of operation depending upon the needs of the wireless and wired network. The following interface configurations are provided as an overview of the basic network types, as all possible network configurations can not be listed. For further help in selecting the correct network type, please refer to Chapter 3 of this User’s Manual or call Customer Support at 509-735-9092.

EXAMPLE APPLICATIONS
PROGRAMMING EXAMPLES
Once the mode of operation for the ESTeem has been determined, you
are now ready to program the Model 195C/M for use. ESTeem has
created a simplified network programming utility call the ESTeem
Network Configuration (ENC) Utility. This ENC Utility will be used
in all the following programming examples. For detailed instructions
on installing the ENC Utility, please refer to the User’s Guide (found in
the ESTeem Resource CD or Utility program itself) or Chapter 4 of this
User’s Manual.
Technical Tip: The ENC Utility calculates the
wireless link information based upon exact
ESTeem serial numbers. The serial numbers
listed in the following examples are for example
only. Enter the correct ESTeem serial numbers
for your application.
Adding ESTeems to ENC Utility
and Changing Name
Each of the example applications will use the following procedure to add and rename ESTeem 195C/M’s.
1. Consult the ENC Utility’s User Guide on how the create a new wireless network. Once you have a blank network
configuration page (Figure 9), select ESTeem from the menu items to display the drop down menu, then select New>New
ESTeem.

2. Ent
er in the ESTeem Model 195C/M serial numbers used for the
example (for example enter E-14000 in the Set Serial Number Box)
and press the OK button (Figure 10). The ENC Utility will look up
the ESTeem 195C/M’s serial number in the database and match the
correct Wireless LAN MAC (WLAN MAC) address to the modem.
This WLAN MAC address will be displayed above the modem
symbol on the screen (Figure 11).
