Connecting The Power; Connecting To The Network; Connecting To A Serial Device - Moxa Technologies MiiNePort E2-H User Manual

MiiNePort E2/E3

Connecting the Power

Connect the 12-48 VDC power line with the evaluation board's power jack. If the power is properly supplied, the
power LED on the evaluation board (D14) will show a solid green color until the system is ready. When the
system is ready, the ready LED on the module will show a solid green color.

Connecting to the Network

To connect to the network for testing and development purposes, plug the Ethernet cable into the RJ45 jack on
the evaluation board. If the cable is properly connected, the LED will indicate a valid connection to the Ethernet
as follows:

When using a private IP address (192.168.xxx.xxx), be sure the netmask and IP address are configured to
allow hosts on the private network to access the module. Note that by default, the module is configured to use
a private IP address.

Connecting to a Serial Device

To connect to a serial device for testing and development purposes, the module should be installed on the
evaluation board. Be sure to select the serial interface you would like to use before you connect the evaluation
board to the serial device. (Refer to the Selecting the Serial Interface section above when you are using
jumper blocks to select the serial interface on the evaluation board.) The module's serial signals are routed to
and from the RS-232 or RS-485 COM port on the evaluation board. Use a serial data cable to connect the serial
device to the COM port on the evaluation board.
