TOSHIBA 6F3A4508 [1] Introduction This document describes the Wi Tool which is a tool for the Toshiba Wi Series drive equipment. For information on how to install Wi Tool on your PC, refer to the "Installation manual" (6F3A4507). Note that the drive equipment cannot be connected unless the correct connection method and PC settings are used. Be sure to understand the concept of these settings thoroughly.
TOSHIBA 6F3A4508 [2] Wi Tool connection The following three types of network connections are available for Wi Tool: 1) 1:1 connection PC and drive are connected 1 to 1. Therefore, only one PC and drive equipment are connected to the network. 250Wi Ethernet Figure 2 1:1 connection 2) 1:N connection Multiple drive equipments are connected to a single PC. Normally, the network is connected through a device called the HUB. In this case, an IP address is required for the PC and each drive unit.
TOSHIBA 6F3A4508 3) 1:N RIO connection This is a connection made via Integrated Controller V Series. The PC is connected to the Integrated Controller network and exchanges messages with the Integrated Controller RIO (Remote I/O Controller). RIO and drive equipment exchange messages using the message transmission function of the Transmission Unit TL-S20. Consequently, the PC exchanges messages with the drive equipment. In this case, an IP address is required for the PC and each RIO.
TOSHIBA 6F3A4508 The necessary information, the creation of setup file based on this information, PC setup, and the window display depend on the selected connection method ((1) 1:1, (2) 1:N, or (3) 1:N RIO). Refer to the "Installation manual" (6E3A4507) for details. 4) Connection between PC and drive equipment The actual connection between the PC and drive equipment is made by an Ethernet cable.
TOSHIBA 6F3A4508 [3] Starting Wi Tool If installation is finished, Wi Tool can be started according to the following procedure: 1) Click the START button at the bottom left corner of the screen. 2) Select Program/TOSHIBA Drive Tools. 3) When Wi Tool appears, click it. 4) If TOSHIBA Drive Tools or Wi Tool is not displayed: Wi Tool may not be installed.
