For the first USB connection, internet access is 
recommended for obtaining drivers.  If internet is not 
available, insert the Hardware Manual CD that came 
with the WRS970 Base Station. 
 
The USB connection is capable of powering the base 
unit along with the data connection.  Connect the 
included USB cable to the base and the other end to 
an open USB port on the PC or hub.  The drivers will 
install automatically and the PC alerts when the 
hardware is installed and ready to use. 

An Ethernet connection is provided for installations 
where the Base Station may not be within a USB 
cable length of the PC.  To connect directly to the 
PC, an Ethernet cross-over cable must be used.  For 
connection through a hub or similar device, a 
standard Ethernet cable can be used.  To use 
Ethernet, the optional accessory kit for Ethernet 
connectivity is available which includes the AC-DC 
adaptor and standard Ethernet cable.   
 
As an alternate to the DC supply, the WRS970 Base 
unit can also be powered using Power-over-Ethernet 
(PoE) MIDSPAN.  An optional PoE accessory kit is 
also available which includes a power injector and 
Ethernet cable. PoE is a technology that supplies 
power and data through the one Ethernet cable.  For 
single base installations, a product called a PoE 
Injector connects between the PC and the Base 
stations near a power source (Figure 1).  For multiple 
base installations, a PoE Midspan hub, router or 
switch can be used. 
 

 

Each base unit ships from the Fleetwood factory with 
a default IP address of 200.0.0.111, subnet mask of 
255.255.255.0 and port 2101.  If Ethernet is the 
desired connection type, these settings can be 
changed.  See appendix x for instructions. 
 

Important!  After connecting power to the base unit 
for use with Ethernet, the base unit requires a 30 
second wait period before the software application 
can connect via Ethernet. 
 

Activate the Reply

 WRS970 compliant software 

application. Connect to the Base Station (see your 
software manual for further instructions) and start a 
polling session.  The system is now ready to process 
responses from assigned keypads.  Two-way radio 
communication is now operational between the Base 
Station and keypads. 
 

The keypad independent of a base unit does not 
provide much functionality.

Any of the keys listed below can be disabled via the

The power key will turn on and off the keypad.  The 
base unit can control whether the key is disabled to 
turn off the keypad.
