Page 9: Introduction
The first time an NL120 is attached to a datalogger, the datalogger’s • memory has to be reorganized to allow room in memory for the IP stack. To avoid the loss of data, collect your data before attaching the NL120 to a datalogger. Initial Inspection Upon receipt of the NL120, inspect the packaging and contents for damage. -
Page 10: Quickstart
CAUTION removing the NL120 to or from the datalogger. After powering down the datalogger, plug the NL120 into the datalogger peripheral port (see FIGURE 4-1). Attach Ethernet cable to the 10Base-T port. If using the 28033 Surge Protector, connect the other end of the Ethernet cable to the 28033 and connect another Ethernet cable to the other end of the 28033. -
Page 11: Step 2 - Loggernet Setup
A temporary IP address may be obtained from a DHCP server. For more information, see Section 6.8, DHCP (p. 12) The NL120 must be connected to the datalogger before NOTE configuring the datalogger with the Device Configuration Utility. If it is not connected, the TCP/IP settings will not be displayed. -
Page 12: Step 3 - Connect
Typical Current Drain: 20 mA (Note: To save power, the IPNetPower() instruction can be used to turn off power to the NL120. See the CRBasic help for an example of using the IPNetPower instruction.) Operating Temp. Range: –25 to 50 °C Standard –40 to 85 °C Extended... -
Page 13: Tcp/Ip Functionality
NL120 Ethernet Module Cable Requirements: Use a straight-through Ethernet cable when the cable is run from the hub to the NL120. Use a crossover Ethernet cable when the cable is run directly from the computer to the NL120. Use a shielded Ethernet cable and/or the 28033 surge suppressor when the cable length is greater than 9 ft. -
Page 14: Communicating Over Tcp/Ip
Information Services section of the datalogger manual and CRBasic Editor Help. Communicating over TCP/IP Once the datalogger, the NL120, and LoggerNet have been set up as described in Sections 4.1, Physical Setup , and 4.2, Communicating via Ethernet (p. -
Page 15: Datalogger-To-Datalogger Communication
NL120 Ethernet Module 6.1.2 Datalogger-to-Datalogger Communication Communication between dataloggers is possible over TCP/IP. In order to do this, a socket must be opened between the two dataloggers. This is done using the TCPOpen() instruction. The socket opened by this instruction is then used by the instructions performing datalogger-to-datalogger communication. -
Page 16: Ftp
6.3.1 FTP Server With an NL120 attached, the datalogger will automatically run an FTP server. This allows Windows Explorer to access the datalogger’s file system via FTP. In the FTP world, the “drives” on the datalogger are mapped into directories (or folders). -

Page 18: Step 1 - Configure Datalogger
6.3.1.1 Step 1 – Configure Datalogger Connect serial cable from PC COM port to datalogger RS-232 port. Open Campbell Scientific’s Device Configuration Utility. Select the device type of the datalogger (CR1000 or CR3000), the appropriate Serial Port, and baud rate. Connect to the datalogger. -
Page 19: Telnet
Pinging the datalogger’s IP address may be used to verify communication. Serial Server With an NL120 attached, the datalogger can be configured to act as a serial server over the 10Base-T port. (A serial server is a device that allows serial communication over a TCP/IP port.) This function may be useful when... -

= SerialOut(socket,sent,"",0,100) TCP ModBus With an NL120 attached, the datalogger can be set up as a TCP ModBus Master or Slave device. For information on configuring the datalogger as a TCP ModBus Master or Slave, see the ModBus section of the datalogger manual. - Page 22 • info@campbellsci.com.cn • info@campbellsci.de www.campbellsci.com www.campbellsci.de Campbell Scientific do Brasil Ltda.
