NPort 6250

Hardware Installation Procedure

STEP 1: Connect the 12-48 VDC power adaptor to the NPort 6150
and then plug the power adaptor into a DC outlet.
STEP 2: For first-time configuration, use a cross-over Ethernet cable
to connect the NPort 6150 directly to your computer's
Ethernet cable. For connecting to a network, use a standard
straight-through Ethernet cable to connect to a hub or
switch.
STEP 3: Connect the NPort 6150's serial port to a serial device.

Placement Options

The NPort 6150/6250 device servers have built-in
"ears" for attaching the device server to a wall or the
inside of a cabinet. We suggest using two screws per
ear to attach the device servers to a wall or the inside
of a cabinet. The heads of the screws should be less
than 6.0 mm in diameter, and the shafts should be less
than 3.5 mm in diameter, as shown in the figure on the
right.

Open the back door with a
screwdriver and use the DIP
switch to set the pull high/low
resistors. The default is 150 kΩ.
You can switch the SW1 and SW2
to ON and change the resistors
value to 1 kΩ.
Do not use the 1 kΩ setting with
RS-232 mode, since doing so will
degrade the RS-232 signal and
shorten the communication
distance. In addition, you can
switch the SW3 to ON and set the
terminal resistor to 120Ω.
