3. Hardware Introduction

The NPort 5200 series of device servers are used to control
RS-232/422/485 devices. NPort 5210/5210-T has two 8-pin RJ45 ports,
both for the RS-232 interface. NPort 5230/5230-T 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/5232-T/5232I-T 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.

: 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.

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.

STEP 4: Placement Options

In addition to placing
NPort 5200 on a
desktop or other
horizontal surface, you
may also make use of
the DIN-Rail or Wall
Mount options, as
illustrated here.
