3. Hardware Introduction
The NPort 5200 series of device servers are used to control
RS-232/422/485 devices. NPort 5210 has two 8-pin RJ45 ports, both for
the RS-232 interface. NPort 5230 has one 10-pin terminal block, with 5
pins used for one RS-232 port, and 5 pins used for one RS-422/485 port.
NPort 5232/5232I have one 10-pin terminal block, with 5 pins used for
one RS-422/485 port, and 5 pins used for another RS-422/485 port.

4. Hardware Installation Procedure
STEP 1: After removing NPort 5200 from the box, the first thing you
should do is connect the power adaptor. Connect the 12-30 VDC power
line with NPort 5200's terminal block, or connect the DIN-Rail power
supply with NPort 5200's terminal block.
STEP 2: Connect NPort 5200 to a network. Use a standard
straight-through Ethernet cable to connect to a Hub or Switch. When
setting up or testing NPort 5200, 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 NPort 5200's serial port to a serial device.
