NL200 Network Link Interface
7.2.2 Configuring the NL200
RS-232 Serial Server
• Connect to the NL200 in DevConfig (see Section 6).
• Apply Factory Defaults. (Applying factory defaults is the easiest way to
put the NL200 in Serial Server mode. However, if you have other settings
that you do not wish to clear, you can just ensure that the settings below
are configured correctly.)
• On the NL200 tab:
o Set Bridge Mode to ‘disable’.
• On the RS-232 tab:
o Set Configuration to ‘TCP Serial Server’.
o Set Baud Rate to baud rate of attached device.
o Make note of the Serial Server Port. (The default RS-232 Serial
Server Port is 6784. Typically it is not necessary to change this entry
from its default.)
CS I/O Serial Server
• Connect to the NL200 in DevConfig (see Section 6).
• Apply Factory Defaults. (Applying factory defaults is the easiest way to
put the NL200 in Serial Server mode. However, if you have other settings
that you do not wish to clear, you can just ensure that the settings below
are configured correctly.)
• On the NL200 tab:
o Set Bridge Mode to ‘disable’.
• On the CS I/O tab:
o Set Configuration to ‘TCP Serial Server’.
o Set SDC address. (Note that if multiple peripherals are connected to a
datalogger’s CS I/O port, each must have a unique SDC address.)
o Make note of the Serial Server Port. (The default CS I/O Serial
Server Port is 6783. Typically it is not necessary to change this entry
from its default.)
