Overview
NPort IA device servers deliver easy and reliable serial-to-Ethernet
connectivity for the industrial automation market. The servers support
several operation modes—TCP Server, TCP Client, UDP, Real COM, Pair
Connection, and Ethernet Modem—ensuring the compatibility of network
software, and they are an ideal choice for connecting RS-232/422/485
serial devices, such as PLCs, sensors, meters, motors, drives, barcode
readers, and operator displays. NPort IA device servers come with a
compact and rugged DIN-rail mountable casing.

Reset Button—Press the Reset button for 5 seconds to load factory
defaults. Use a pointed object, such as a straightened paper clip or
toothpick, to press the reset button. This will cause the Ready LED to blink
on and off. The factory defaults will be loaded once the Ready LED stops
blinking (after about 5 seconds). At this point, you should release the
reset button.

Hardware Installation Procedure
STEP 1: After removing the NPort IA from the box, the first thing you
should do is connect the power adapter. Connect the 12-48 VDC power
line with the NPort IA’s terminal block, or connect the DIN-rail power
supply with the NPort IA’s terminal block.
STEP 2: Connect the NPort IA to a network. Use a standard
straight-through Ethernet cable to connect to a hub or switch. When
setting up or testing the NPort IA, you might find it convenient to connect
directly to your computer’s Ethernet port. In this case, use a crossover
Ethernet cable.
STEP 3: Connect the NPort IA’s serial port to a serial device.
STEP 4: The NPort IA is designed to be attached to a DIN rail or mounted
on a wall. The two sliders on the NPort IA’s rear panel serve a dual
purpose. For wall mounting, both sliders should be extended. For DIN-rail
mounting, start with one slider pushed in, and the other slider extended.
After attaching the NPort IA on the DIN rail, push the extended slider in to
lock the device server to the rail. The two placement options are
illustrated in the accompanying figures.
