Overview

Welcome to the Moxa CN2510 Async Server, a communication server

with 8/16 asynchronous RS-232 ports and 1 10/100 Mbps Ethernet LAN

port. The CN2510 Async Server can be used to connect terminals,

modems, printers, and other asynchronous serial devices to LAN hosts.

The CN2510 complies with TCP/IP and IEEE 802.3 specifications using

standard Ethernet 10/100BaseT and twisted pair 10/100BaseTX cable

as the physical medium.

Ready LED stops blinking (after about 5

seconds), release the reset button.

You will hear

a beep, which indicates that the default settings

have been restored, and the CN2510 has

rebooted.

LCM Display

We recommend using the LCM display and four push buttons to

configure the IP address for the first time.

Basic Operation:

If the CN2510 is working properly, the LCM panel will display a green

color. The red Ready LED will also light up, indicating that the CN2510

is receiving power. After the red Ready LED turns to green, you will see

a display similar to:

This is where:

•CN2510-16 is the CN2510’s name

•3is this CN2510’s local sequence number

•192.168.127.254 is the CN2510’s IP address

There are four push buttons on CN2510’s nameplate. Going from left to

right, the buttons are:

Button

Name

Action

activates the main menu, or returns to an

upper level

up cursor

scrolls up through a list of items shown on the

LCM panel’s second line

down cursor scrolls down through a list of items shown on

the LCM panel’s second line

SEL

select

selects the option listed on the LCM panel’s

second line

As you move through the various functions and setting options, note

that the top line shows the current menu or submenu name, and the

bottom line shows the submenu name or menu item that is activated

by pressing the SEL button.

Refer to the CN2510 Async Server User’s Manual for more details.

Hardware Installation

1. Installing the CN2510

Place the CN2510 on a desktop, or attach it to a standard rack

cabinet.

2. Wiring Requirements

Use separate paths to route wiring for power and devices. If

power wiring and device wiring paths must cross, make sure

the wires are perpendicular at the intersection point.

NOTE

Do not run signal or communication wiring and power wiring in

the same wire conduit. To avoid interference, wires with

different signal characteristics should be routed separately.

We strongly advise that you label wiring to all devices in the

system.

3. Connecting the Power

AC:

Connect the CN2510 100-240 VAC power line with its AC

connector. If the power is properly connected, the “Ready”

LED will

show a solid red color until the system is ready, at

which time the “Ready” LED will change to a green color.

DC:

Connect the CN2510-16/8-48V’s power cord to the CN2510’s

DC connector, and then follow the steps given below:

Loosen the screws on the V+ and V-

terminals of the CN2510-8/16-

48V’s terminal

block.

Connect the power cord’s 48 VDC wire to the

terminal block’s V+ terminal, and the power

cord’s DC Power Ground wire to the terminal

block’s V- terminal, and then tighten the

terminal block screws. (Note: the CN2510-

8/16-

48V can still operate even if the DC 48V

and DC Power Ground are reversed.)

If the power is properly connected, the “Ready” LED will show a

solid red color until the system is ready, at which time the “Ready”

LED will change to a green color.

Grounding CN2510-16/8-48V:

Grounding and wire routing helps limit the effects

of noise due to electromagnetic interference

(EMI).

Run the ground connection from the

ground screw to the grounding surface prior to

connecting devices

. The Shielded Ground

(sometimes called Protected Ground) contact is

the second contact from the right of the 5

-pin

power terminal block connector located on the

rear panel of

the CN2510-8/16-48V. Connect the

SG wire to the Earth ground.

4. Connecting to the Network

Connect one end of the Ethernet cable to the CN2510’s 10/100M

Ethernet port and the other end of the cable to the Ethernet

network. There are 2 LED indicators located on the top left and

right corners of the Ethernet connector. If the cable is properly

- 5 -

connected, the CN2510 will indicate a valid connection to the

Ethernet in the following ways:

The top right corner LED indicator maint

ains a solid

green color when the cable is properly connected to a

100 Mbps Ethernet network.

The top left corner LED indicator maintains a solid

orange color when the cable is properly connected to a

10 Mbps Ethernet network.

5. Connecting to a Serial Device

Connect the serial data cable between the CN2510 and the serial

device.

6. Connecting to a Console

A console is a combination of keyboard and monitor used to

configure settings and monitor the status of your system. If you

do not have a network environment, use a terminal, a PC running

UNIX, or a PC with terminal emulation software (e.g.,

HyperTerminal in Windows; PComm by Moxa). Use an RJ45-to-

DB25 or RJ45-to-DB9 cable to connect the terminal to the console

socket. Refer to the CN2510 Async Server User’s Manual for more

details.

Software Installation

For the NPort’s configuration, the default IP address of the NPort is:

LAN: Static; IP = 192.168.127.254; netmask = 255.255.255.0.

NOTE

If you have forgotten the NPort's IP address, use the Device

Search Utility (DSU) from your PC to locate the NPort. After

searching the LAN for NPort units, the DSU will display the IP

address of each unit.

You may log in with the password moxa to change any setting to meet

your network topology (e.g., IP address) or serial device (e.g., serial

parameters). For first-time use, click the Wizard in the left navigation

panel. The wizard will prompt you to configure the IP address, SSID,

and security mode. For other settings, use the factory defaults or

modify the settings for your application.

For software installation, download the relative utilities from Moxa's

website:

https://www.moxa.com/support/support_home.aspx?isSearchShow=1

•Download the NPort Windows Driver Manager and install it as the

driver to run with Real COM mode of the NPort Series.

•Execute NPort Windows Driver Manager; then map the virtual COM

ports on your Windows platform.

•You may refer to Pin Assignment Async RS-232 port section to loop

back pin 4 and pin 5 for the RS-232 interface to carry out a self test

on the device.

•Use HyperTerminal or a similar program (you may download Moxa's

program, called PComm Lite) to test whether the device is good or

not.

Please refer to the CN2510 Async Server User’s Manual for more

details.
