4. Hardware Installation Procedure
STEP 1
: After removing NPort 5600 from the box, the first thing you
should do is attach the power adaptor.
STEP 2
: Connecting the Power
AC: Connect the NPort 5610/5630/5650 100 to 240 VAC power cord to
the AC connector. If the power connection is correct, the “Ready”
LED will glow solid red until the system is ready, at which time the
“Ready” LED will change to green.
DC: Connect NPort 5610-16/8-48V’s power cord to the DC connector,
and then perform the following:
V+ V-
ON
OFF
1.
Loosen the screws on the V
+
and V
-
terminals of
NPort 5610-16/8-48V’s terminal block.
2.
Connect the power cord’s 48 VDC or -48 VDC
wire to the terminal block’s V
+
terminal, and the
power cord’s DC Power Ground wire to the
terminal block’s V
-
terminal, and then tighten the
terminal block screws. (Note: NPort
5610-16/8-48V can still operate even if the
48V/-48V and DC Power Ground are reversed.)
If the power is connected properly, the “Ready” LED will glow a solid
red until the system is ready, at which time the “Ready” LED will change
to green.
Grounding NPort 5610-16/8-48V:
V+ V-
SG
ON
OFF
Grounding and wire routing help limit the effects
of noise due to electromagnetic interference
(EMI). Run the ground connection from the
ground screw to the grounding surface prior to
connecting devices. The Shielded Ground
(sometimes called Protected Ground) contact is
the second contact from the right of the 5-pin
power terminal block connector located on the
rear panel of NPort 5610-16/8-48V. Connect the
SG wire to the Earth ground.
STEP 3
: Connect NPort 5600 to a network. Use a standard
straight-through Ethernet cable to connect to a Hub or Switch. When
setting up or testing NPort 5600, you might find it convenient to connect
directly to your computer’s Ethernet port. In this case, use a cross-over
Ethernet cable.
STEP 4
: Connect NPort 5600’s serial port to a serial device.
Placement Options
: You can place NPort 5600 on a desktop or other
horizontal surface.
