The Reset to Default Button—Depress the Reset to default button for 5
continuous seconds to load the factory default settings. Use a pointed
object, such as a straightened paper clip or toothpick, to depress the Reset
to default button. This will cause the Ready LED to blink on and off. The
factory default settings are loaded once the Ready LED stops blinking
(after about 5 seconds). At this point, you can release the Reset to default
button.

4. Hardware Installation Procedure
STEP 1: After removing the NPort IA5150A/IA5250A series from
the box, the first thing you should do is connect the power
adaptor. Connect the 12-48 VDC power line with the NPort
IA5150A/IA5250A series' terminal block, or connect the
DIN-Rail power supply with the NPort IA5150A/IA5250A
series' terminal block.
STEP 2: Connect the NPort IA5150A/IA5250A series to a network.
Use a standard straight-through Ethernet cable to connect to
a Hub or Switch. When setting up or testing the NPort
IA5150A/IA5250A series, you might find it convenient to
connect directly to your computer's Ethernet port. In this
case, use a cross-over Ethernet cable.
STEP 3: Connect the NPort IA5150A/IA5250A series' serial port to a
DIN-Rail
serial device.
STEP 4: The NPort IA5150A/IA5250A series is designed to be
attached to a DIN-Rail or mounted on a wall. For DIN-Rail
mounting, push down the spring and properly attach it to the
DIN-Rail until it "snaps" into place. For wall mounting,
install the wall mount kit (optional) first, and then screw the
device onto the wall. The following figure illustrates the two
mounting options:
Power is on and the NPort
IA5150A/IA5250A series is booting
up.
Indicates an IP conflict, the DHCP
or BOOTP server did not respond
properly, or a relay output occurred.
Power is on and the NPort
IA5150A/IA5250A series is
functioning normally.
The device server has been located
by the Administrator's "Locate"
function.
