NPort 6600 Series

Quick Installation Guide

Fifth Edition, March 2011

1. Overview

The NPort 6600 series of serial device servers includes 8-port,
16-port, and 32 -port models for connecting larger numbers of
serial devices t o Ethernet. Some applications now also require
better security when transmitting data through a network. The
NPort 6600 series of device servers use DES, 3DES, and AES data
encryption to provide secure network communication.

3. Hardware Introduction

Demonstrated 8 port model to be an example.

Reset button

Press the Reset button continuously for 5 sec to load factory
defaults

Adjustable pull high/low resistor for RS-485 (150 KΩ or 1
K

Ω)

The NPort 6650 has 3 DIP Switches associated with each serial port
for configuring the pull high/low resistors for RS-485 applicatio ns.
The switches are located in a recess on the bottom of the NPort

6650. To access the switches, first remove the panel covering the
recess.

: Use a pointed object to press the reset button. Release

the button after the Ready LED stops blinking.

4. Hardware Installation Procedure

STEP 1: Connect the NPort 6600 device server to a suitable power

source.
AC models: C onnect the 100 to 240 VAC power cord to the NPort
6600’s power input.
DC models

STEP 2: Con nect the NP ort 6600 se ries to a network. Use a
standard straight-through Ethernet cable to connect to a hub or
switch. Use a cross-over Ethernet cable when connecting to your
computer’s Ethernet port (e.g., when setting up or testing the
NPort 6600 server).

: Connect the terminal block to a battery.

STEP 3: Con nect the NPort 6600’ s serial ports to your serial
devices.

5. Software Installation Information

NPort Search Utility

To install the NPort Search Utility, insert the NPort Document and
Software CD into your computer’s CD-ROM dr ive. When the NPort
Installation CD window opens, click on the Installation button, and
then follow the instructions on the screen. To view detailed
information about the NPort Search Utility, refer to the pdf version
of the “NPort 6600 Series User’s Manual,” which is located in the
document directory of the CD.

PComm Lite and Console Port (19200, 8, None, 1)

MOXA’s PComm Lite software utility is also includ ed in the
Document and Softwa re CD o f the CD-ROM. PComm Lite is often
used to connect to the NPort 6600 through its console port to

configure the IP address for the first time. Use the following serial
console parameters when connecting through the console port:
19200, 8, None, 1.
