Reset Button—Press the Reset button continuously for 5 sec to
load factory defaults. Use a pointed object, such as a straightened
paper clip or toothpick, to press the reset button. This will cause
the Ready LED to blink on and off. The factory defaults will be
loaded once the Ready LED stops blinking (after about 5 seconds).
At this point, you should release the reset button.

server problem, or relay output
problem.

is functioning normally.
Blinking: NPort is responding to Locate
function.
Off Power is off, or power error condition exists.
Link Orange 10 Mbps Ethernet connection.
Green 100 Mbps Ethernet connection.
Off Ethernet cable is disconnected, or has a
short.
P1-P4 Orange Serial port is receiving data.
Green Serial port is transmitting data.
Off Serial port is idle.
FX Orange Steady on: Ethernet port is idle.

Adjustable pull high/low resistor for RS-422/485
(150 KΩ or 1 KΩ)
Jumpers are used to set
the pull high/low resistors.
The default is 150 KΩ.
Short the jumpers to set
this value to 1 KΩ. Do not
use the KΩ setting with
RS-232 mode, since doing
so will degrade the RS-232
signals and shorten the
communication distance.
