Once detected, the Ewon device allows the configuration of the Anybus Wireless Bolt.

Bolt/AWB detection

By clicking the Scan LAN for Bolt/AWB devices> button, the Ewon scans its LAN ports to detect any AWB devices.

If your Anybus Wireless Bolt is not listed as detected, check all wiring of your AWB (Ethernet on the Ewon LAN side, the power, ...) before clicking again on Scan LAN for Bolt/AWB devices.

Advanced configuration

The hidden & auto-set parameters of the simplified view are:

• Security: is set to “WPA/WPA2 PSK”.
• DHCP server: is set to “DHCP server on Bolt”.
• Bolt LAN IP: is set automatically (auto IP address).
• Hostname: is named based on the following pattern: [SSID][Incremented Number].

The “auto IP address” set for the “Bolt LAN IP” is generated based on the following method:

• Check of the Ewon’s LAN IP address. E.g.: 10.2.0.155 (255.255.0.0) 2.
• ARP scan of the network range. E.g.: [10.2.0.0 -> 10.2.0.255]
• The DHCP server provides IP addresses that were not responding (and so were not used).
