NPort 5400 Series User’s Manual Initial IP Address Configuration

There are four push buttons on the NPort’s nameplate. Going from left to right, the buttons are:

Button	Name	Action
MENU	menu	activates the main menu, or returns to a lower level
U	up cursor	scrolls up through a list of items shown on the LCM panel’s second line
V	down cursor	scrolls down through a list of items shown on the LCM panel’s second line
SEL	select	selects the option listed on the LCM panel’s second line

The buttons are manipulated in a manner similar to the way a modern cellular phone operates. As you move through the various functions and setting options, note that the top line shows the current menu or submenu name, and the bottom line shows the submenu name or menu item which is activated by pressing the SEL button.

Detailed Menu Options

The best way to explain all of the NPort’s LCM functions is to refer to the tree graph shown in the next page. There are three main levels—1, 2, and 3—with each level represented by a separate column.

The first thing to remember is that the menu button is used to move back and forth between the LCM panel’s default screen, and main menu screen:

N	P	5	4	1	0	_	6	1	4	0	5
1	9	2	.	1	6	8	.	1	2	7	.	2	5	4

In addition, you only need to remember to:

•Use the SEL button to move up one level (i.e., left to right on the tree graph)

•Use the MENU button to move down one level (i.e., right to left on the tree graph)

•Use the cursor keys, U and V, to scroll between the various options within a level (i.e., up and down on the tree graph).

As you use the buttons to operate the LCM display, you will notice that with very few exceptions, moving up one level causes the bottom line of the display to move to the top line of the display. You will also notice that the bottom three options in level 2, and all of the options in level 3 have either a C or D attached.

The meaning is as follows:

•C = configurable

I.e., you are allowed to change the setting of this option

•D = display only

I.e., the setting for this option is displayed, but it cannot be changed (this does NOT necessarily mean that the number doesn’t change; only that you can’t change it)
