RS-232
The RS232 and COM2 communications ports operate on the RS-232 protocol (default
configuration). Configurations possible for these two ports are:
•
RS232 port can also be configured to operate in single or RS-232 Multidrop mode
(Option 62); refer to Section 2.3.1.7.
•
COM2 port can be left in its default configuration for standard RS-232 operation
including multidrop, or it can be reconfigured for half-duplex RS-485 operation (please
contact the factory for this configuration).
Note
When the rear panel COM2 port is in use, except for multidrop
communication, the rear panel USB port cannot be used.
(Alternatively, when the USB port is enabled, COM2 port cannot
be used except for multidrop).
A code-activated switch (CAS), can also be used on either port to connect typically
between 2 and 16 send/receive instruments (host computer(s) printers, data loggers,
analyzers, monitors, calibrators, etc.) into one communications hub. Contact Teledyne API
Sales (front cover, this manual) for more information on CAS systems.

PTION
)
The COM2 port of the instrument’s rear panel is set up for RS-232 communication but can
be reconfigured for RS-485 communication. Contact Technical Support for reconfiguration
unless this option was elected at the time of purchase, then the rear panel was preconfigured
at the factory.
ETHERNET
When using the Ethernet interface, the analyzer can be connected to any standard 10BaseT
or 100BaseT Ethernet network via low-cost network hubs, switches or routers. The
interface operates as a standard TCP/IP device on port 3000. This allows a remote computer
to connect through the network to the analyzer using NumaView™ Remote, terminal
emulators or other programs.
The Ethernet connector has two LEDs that are on the connector itself, indicating its current
operating status.

amber (link)
On when connection to the LAN is valid.
green (activity
Flickers during any activity on the LAN.
The analyzer is shipped with DHCP enabled by default. This allows the instrument to be
connected to a network or router with a DHCP server; however, it should be configured
with a Static IP address as soon as practical. See Section 2.5.10.5 for configuration details.
