Connecting to the Network
Use the supplied Ethernet cable to connect the NPort to your Ethernet network. If the cable is properly
connected, the NPort will indicate a valid connection to the Ethernet as follows:
• A green Ethernet LED indicates a valid connection to a 100 Mbps Ethernet network.
• An orange Ethernet LED indicates a valid connection to a 10 Mbps Ethernet network.
• A flashing Ethernet LED indicates that Ethernet packets are being transmitted or received.
Connecting the Power
Connect the VDC power line (12 to 48 V) to the NPort’s power jack or terminal block (recommended for only
one connection at a time). If power is properly connected, the “Ready” LED will initially glow red. When the
system is ready, the “Ready” LED will turn green.
Connecting to a Serial Device
Use a serial cable to connect your serial device to a serial port on the NPort.
