Wifi for logo

Good Morning,

Is it possible to place a Wi-Fi module in the CIM module instead of a sim module?

would I be able to connect to the home wifi?

Thanks

 Physically - probably yes. CIM uses standard PCIE slot.

BUT

Firmware doesn't recognize it and probably never will. So answer is No.

Hi,

There is no WiFi function availalbe in the LOGO! product range. You can use Siemens Scallance products with integrated WiFi, but the price is away from the LOGO! price segment.

However, if I need WiFi I use this WiFi Router:

It is very small and it can be configured as repeater also. The price is also OK for me.

Hope this helps

AutoGen_380038

It is very small and it can be configured as repeater also. The price is also OK for me.

Only problem that this unit needs separate power supply (5V/1A). sometimes this will be a limiting factor

I will recommend another option too - Mikrotik wireless AP-s. Not so cheap (almost x5 of TP-Link price), but still cheaper than CIM. As a rule - Mikrotiks powered by 12...30V DC (including PoE), some even to 60V DC  and most of them are weatherproof. Some have option for LTE as well, wifi is almost standard. Many have option to attach to DIN rail. I personally used LTAP minis for several years for controlling boilerhouses, some of them just bolted on outside wall (-30 C is not uncommon here).

Software is RouterOS - very powerful, you can do pretty impressive things (including a own scripting language), but needs some learning.
