2.4 Safety Advice (Precautions)

Use up-to-date security software!

Secure operation of the PC system can be at risk as a result of malware such a

viruses and Trojans, as well as related threats such as denial-of-service attacks.

Therefore, make sure that the latest security software and definitions are always

installed on the PC system.

Disable or uninstall software that is no longer required!

The vulnerability of a PC system against malware and related threats increases

with the number of installed or active software components (applications and

services). Therefore, uninstall or disable software components that are not

needed for the purpose at hand.

Do not automate safety-related areas of the application with flexROOM

Never automate safety-related applications (e.g., emergency lighting) with

flexROOM

Ensure operational reliability through an external controller.

Do not use automation in emergency exits and rescue routes!

Do not use flexROOM® to automate any building systems in which emergency

exits and escape routes must be kept clear. For example, do not automate blinds

on emergency exit doors/windows.

Separation between flexROOM

and company TCP/IP network useful!

Due to the different application areas in terms of the data, network configuration,

etc. used, we recommend separation between the flexROOM® network and the

company TCP/IP network.

Only use a suitable controller!

Control tasks in flexROOM

applications are handled by PFC200 controllers.

Various versions of these are offered.

The following version is used for flexROOM

applications:

PFC200 FG1 2ETH RS (0750-8202/000-011)

3 Room Segment Concept with flexROOM

flexROOM

is a building automation system for commissioning, operation and

maintenance of sunblind control, lighting control and for controlling heating and

cooling technology.

Figure 1: The flexROOM

Room Segment Concept

The WAGO-flexROOM

system is implemented through distribution boxes,

based on system enclosures with project-specific hardware and software.

The controller included in the distribution box (PFC200 controller), the

flexROOM

Office application running on it and the sensors/actuators connected

to the distribution box are adapted to the respective space requirements.

The room segment concept is visualized via the flexROOM

Office application in

an HTML-5 output format. The application can be reached via a Web browser,

which is used to configure the distribution box. No programming is required. It is

very easy to adjust the floor plan and functions with the click of a mouse, even

when the use of the building or room changes.

The room segmentation is achieved by division into window segments. A window

segment forms the smallest segmentation unit and contains the complete

individual room control. Several segments can be connected in series, and any

number of rooms (with one to x segments) can be designed in the application as

needed. Individual room and open-plan offices can be easily implemented in this

way.

14 Room Segment Concept with flexROOM® WAGO Software

flexROOM® Office Application efficient. individual. easy.

Quickstart Reference

Version 1.1.0

Corridors, stairwells and sanitary facilities can be individually designed for special

areas on additional pages.

A distribution box can control and regulate up to 24 window segments.

The following application functions are integrated into the flexROOM

Office

application for this purpose:

• Sunblind functions

• Light functions

• Heating and cooling functions

When using a management level, the MODBUS protocol can also be used to

access the distribution box’s room automation.

__________________________

The total system consisting of the system housing, control components, sensors and

actuators is referred to succinctly in this documentation as the “distribution box” or

“system distribution box”.

WAGO Software Quick Start Guide 15

flexROOM® Office Application efficient. individual. easy.

Quickstart Reference

Version 1.1.0

4 Quick Start Guide

This quick start guide describes the basic functions of the flexROOM

Office

application and serves as a quick introduction to sunblind, light and HVAC

configuration with flexROOM

This quick start guide first describes how you necessary your flexROOM

distribution box to a computer and how you assign your distribution box an IP

address. You need the IP address in order to access the distribution box via Web

browser and thus reach the flexROOM

Office application. If there is no

application on the distribution box yet, use the WAGOupload software to load the

application.

After opening the application and logging in, carry out a functional division of the

rooms by placing walls in a virtual building plan. A sunblind actuator, a DALI ECG

and a valve are automatically configured between these walls, i.e. utilization

units, in order to illustrate the function of the light, sunblind and HVAC

configuration. In an additional step, addresses are assigned to switches, and the

actuators are assigned. Operation is then tested via switches (moving the

sunblind up/down, switching the light on, opening/closing the valve).

4.1 Establish Connection to PC

In order to assign an IP address to the distribution box, you need a PC with an

RJ45 connection option for access to an ETHERNET network and a program for

viewing Web pages (Web browser).

flexROOM

distribution box and PC must be on the same network!

For access to the distribution box, the flexROOM

distribution box and the PC

must be on the same network.

1. Connect the flexROOM

distribution box to the ETHERNET interface of

your PC using a suitable network cable (patch cable).

2. Switch on the power supply.

After the power supply is switched on, the flexROOM

distribution box goes

through an initialization phase and is ready to use after a brief startup time.

The distribution box does not have to be switched on separately.

16 Quick Start Guide WAGO Software

flexROOM® Office Application efficient. individual. easy.

Quickstart Reference

Version 1.1.0

4.2 Assign an IP Address

Use of the flexROOM

Office application requires the controller contained in the

distribution box to have an IP address.

The IP address can be assigned in various ways. This quick start guide describes

assigning a temporary IP address with the reset button and changing the

temporary IP address in the Web-based Management system.

You need direct access to the controller of the distribution box.

4.2.1 Temporarily Assign IP Address

1. Set the mode selector switch of the controller to the “STOP” position.

2. Press the Reset button (“RST”) for at least eight seconds until the “SYS”

LED flashes orange.

The controller now temporarily has IP address 192.168.1.17.

4.2.2 Change IP Address in the WBM

Access the controller with the Web-Based Management system in order to modify

the IP settings:

1. To do so, open a Web browser and enter the current IP address of the

controller followed by “/wbm” in the address line: http://192.168.1.17/wbm

This opens the Web-Based Management system.

2. Click Networking > TCP/IP in the navigation

(default login: username “admin,” password “wago”).

3. Select the “Static IP” option under “IP Configuration X1/X2.”

4. Enter the desired IP address under “IP address.”

5. Change the “Subnet Mask” if necessary.

6. Click [Submit].

The new static IP address is set, and the login screen appears.

7. Log in again.

8. Click PLC Runtime > General Configuration in the navigation.

9. So you can use the flexROOM

Office application, select “e!RUNTIME” as

the run-time application.

10. Click [Submit].
