2 2 2 Overview This chapter includ es: ¾ LED Indicators ¾ Housing • DIN Rail • Wall Mount LED Indicators NPort Expres s’s top panel co ntains five LED indicators, as d escribed in the following table. LED Name LED Colo r LED Function r ed Power is on.
2-2 Housing DIN Rail For many industrial applications, you will find it convenient to use the DIN Rail attachments, as shown below. STEP 1: Use 2 screws per ear to att ach DIN Rail mounts to each of NPort Express’s two ears. ⇒ STEP 2: Insert the top o f the DIN Rail into slot A of the DIN Rail mount.
2-3 Wall Mount For many industrial applications, you will find it convenient to mount NPort Express on the wall, using two screws, as indi cated below. STEP 1: Scre w two screws, se parated by 7.8 cm, into the wall. Th e heads of the screws should be no greater than 6.

3 3 3 Serial Installation We discuss the following topics: ¾ DIP Switch Settings ¾ DB25 Female Connector Pinout ¾ RS-232 Wiring ¾ RS-422 Wiring ¾ 4-Wire RS- 485 Wiring • Using a DB25 connector .
3-2 Switch SW1 controls the fun ction of the se rial port ( ON , or up, for RS-232 Console conn ection, and do wn for Data Communication , such as when NPo rt Express is connected to your serial device) . Note that after changing the setting of SW1 , NPort Express will reboot to initiali ze th e new setting.
3-3 RS-232 Wiring * NP21101 is an optional accesso ry for DE-211 * NP21102 is an optional accesso ry for DE-211.
3-4 NOTE: The following pi n out di a gr am shows how to use a DB 25 (M) to DB25 (F) cable. NOTE: In Et hernet Modem Mode , you need a special cable—shown in the following pinout diag ram—to simul ate a DCD si gnal.
3-5 RS-422 Wiring Using a DB25 Connector Using the Optional Terminal Block NOTE: Us e a flathead scr ewdriver to tighten the two attachment scr ews that connect the terminal b lock to NPort Exp r ess.
3-6 RS-485 Wiring Using a DB25 Connector.
3-7 Using the Optional Terminal Block 4-wire RS-485 Termi nal Block Wiring NOTE: Use a flathead scr ewdri ver to tighten t he two attachment scr ews that connect the terminal b lock to NPort Exp r ess.
3-8 NOTE: When setting up a multidrop netwo rk, a daisy-chain ed network shou ld be used. Con struct your devic e-to-device wiri ng as indicate d in the above figure.
3-9 Enabling the Built-In 120 Ω Terminator To enable NPort Express’s built-in 120 Ω terminatio n resistor, you must short the bottom two pin s of jumper 6 (JP6), on DE- 211’s circuit board. T o do this: 1. Use a screw driver to remove DE-211’s outer protective cas e, and then locate JP6, as shown in the f igures below.
3-10 Enabling a User-Supplied Terminator When using the terminal block, you may install you r own external terminator resistor by connecting th e ends of the resistor directly to inpu ts 2 and 3, or by connecting the two ends of the resistor to th e wires that emanate from inputs 2 and 3, as shown in the following diagr ams.
4 4 4 Ethernet Installation We discuss the following topics: ¾ Connecting to the Ethernet Port • Connecting to a Hub or Switch • Connecting to a PC Connecting to the Ethernet Port Connecting to a.
4-2 Connecting to a PC In some cases, such as when configur ing drivers and software, you will find it convenient to hook NPo rt Express directly to your co mputer’s Ethernet card.
5 5 5 Power Connection We discuss the following topics: ¾ Using the Po wer Adapter ¾ Using Power Over Serial ¾ Power Status Check Using the Power Adapter Take the following steps to co nnect NPort Express ’s power adapter. 1. Plug the power adapter’ s DC plug into NPort Express’s DC-IN jack .
5-2 Using Power Over Serial Take the followi ng steps to set up NPort Express’s Power over Serial option. IMPORTANT NOTICE You may not use the power ad apter and Powe r Over Serial option at the sam e time. Using both p ower options at t he same time coul d cause irreparabl e damage to your NPort Expres s unit.
5-3 T o use the 5 VDC Power over Serial option, enable jum pers JP2 and JP3, as illustrated in the following diagram. Note that when using the 5 VDC option, power is supplied via pins 9 and 10: Power Status Check Use the PWR LED indicator on NPort E xpre ss’s top panel to see if it is receiving power.
