Hardware Introduction

Reset Button—Press the Reset button continuously for 5 sec to

load factory defaults. Use a pointed object, such as a straightened

paper clip or toothpick, to press the reset button. This will cause

the Ready LED to blink on and off. The factory defaults will be

loaded once the Ready LED stops blinking (after about 5 seconds).

At this point, you should release the reset button.

Ready

Red

Steady on:

Power is on and the NPort

6150 is booting up.

Blinking:

Indicates an IP conflict, or, the

DHCP or BOOTP

server did not

respond properly or a relay

output occurred. Check the

relay output first. If after

resolving the relay output the

RDY LED is still blinking, then

there is an IP conflict, or the

DHCP or BOOTP server did not

respond properly.

Green

Steady on:

Power is on and the NPort

6150 is functioning normally.

Blinking:

The device server has been

located by the Administrator’s

Location function.

Power is off, or power error condition

exists.

Adjustable pull high/low resistor for RS-422/485

(150 K? or 1 K?)

Jumpers are used to set the pull

high/low resistors. The default is

150 kΩ. Short the jumpers to set

this value to 1 kΩ. Do not use the

kΩ setting with RS

-232 mode,

since doing so will degrade the

-232 signals and shorten the

communication distance.

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 can be placed flat on a desktop or other horizontal

surface. In addition, you may use the DIN-rail or wallmount

options, as illustrated below.

Wallmount

Din Rail
