Appendix C. NL200 Settings
MAC Address
Hardware MAC Address.
In Bridge mode the MAC address is shared with the datalogger.
If the MAC address has been successfully shared with the
datalogger this setting will show "OK" otherwise it will show
"00:00:00:00:00:00"
NOTE
Ethernet Speed / Duplex Configuration
Specifies the Ethernet link speed and duplex settings
Speed: When used as a TCP/IP serial server the overall data transfer
speed is largely dependent on the speed of the serial port. Setting the
Ethernet link speed to 100 Mbps will increase the overall data throughput
rate by a relatively small amount, while setting it to 10 Mbps will
conserve power.
Duplex: Setting the Duplex to Full allows communication in both
directions simultaneously, while setting it to Half allows communication
in only one direction at a time.
Setting the Ethernet Speed/Duplex Configuration to Auto will cause the NL200
to auto configure to the faster of the two speeds and fastest duplex setting
according to the capabilities of the network.
Admin Password
To help guard against unauthorized access to the NL200 it is password
protected by the Admin Password. This password will be required to gain
access to the NL200 via DevConfig over TCP and telnet. If the password
setting is left blank, no password is required to access the NL200. After
settings are saved, the new password will be in effect.
TCP Configuration Port Number
The default TCP port number for configuration via TCP is 6786. This entry
makes it possible for the user to change the port number used in TCP
configuration if desired. Typically it is not necessary to change this entry from
its default. (range 1..65535)
C.2 RS-232 Tab
RS-232 Configuration
This setting controls which process will be associated with the RS-232 port.
The following values are defined:
TCP Serial Server
This port uses a TCP/IP based serial server.
TLS Serial Server
This port uses a TCP/IP/TLS based serial server.
PakBus
This port uses the PakBus protocol
Disabled
This port will not be used
