Windows Driver Installation

7.3.3. DeviceMaster Connectivity Requirements

An Ethernet connection: either to an Ethernet hub, switch, or router; or to a Network Interface Card (NIC) in the
host system using a standard Ethernet cable. See the ICDM-RX/TCP Installation and Configuration Manual
Installation and Configuration Guide for information regarding hardware installation.

7.3.4. DeviceMaster LEDs

The DeviceMaster has network and port LEDs to indicate status.

7.3.4.1. Port LEDs

The 1-port and 2-port models do not have port LEDS.
4, 8, 16, and 32-port models have port LEDs are amber and green. After a port has been opened in RS-232
mode, an amber LED means that there is link between the port and the serial device. After a port has been
opened in RS-422 or RS-485 mode, an amber LED means that data is receiving data. A green port LED
indicates transmit activity.

7.3.4.2. Network and Device LEDs

The LEDs indicate that the default DeviceMaster application, NS-Link/SocketServer is running or after driver
installation, that the NS-Link driver loads. If you have loaded PortVision DX, you can check the DeviceMaster
status on-line.
Ports
• The Status LED on the front of the unit is lit, which indicates that it has power and has
completed the boot cycle.
Note: The Status LED flashes while booting and it takes approximately 15 seconds

• The red Link Act LED is lit, which indicates a working Ethernet connection.
• If the red Duplex LED is lit, it indicates full-duplex activity.
• If the red 100 LED is lit, it indicates a working 100 MB Ethernet connection (100 MB
network, only).
