This article applies to CoolPlug devices
Starting from FW version 0.1.8, CoolPlug can work simultaneously or separately in Wired and/or Wireless modes of connection to CooLinkHub or other devices.
For a wireless connection, CoolPlug has to be equipped with a Wireless Module.
Wired connection is available in all CoolPlugs (via PBUS terminals).
Example of the default lines configuration for CoolPlug ME

OKLine L2 is configured as PBUS - Wired, Line L5 is configured as PBWi - Wireless.
When both Wired and Wireless lines are configured, the only limitation is that the Wired line can not support ASCII_IF commands. Attempt to run plug command on CooLinkHub side via Wired connection will be terminated with the following message:
>plug L3.219 line
PBWi is running, can't process ASCII_IF OKTo work it around Wireless communication has to be (temporary) disabled. This can be done in two ways:
1. Disabling wireless communication via PBUS
Disable
>hwr L2 219 3 0
ModBus Error:0Enable
>hwr L2 219 3 1
ModBus Error:02. Toggling Wireless communication with the button
This is done with One Short followed by One Long button presses.
In both cases, CoolPlug will automatically restart after enabling/disabling Wireless communication.
