Introduction

NI-3101-SIG Specifications (Cont.)

IR/Serial (Ports 9 - 16)

Eight IR/Serial control ports support high-frequency carriers up to

 

1.142 MHz.

 

• Each output is capable of three electrical formats: IR, Serial, and Data

 

• Eight IR/Serial data signals can be generated simultaneously.

 

• Channel range = 1-32,767

 

• Channels 1-128 (output): IR commands

 

• Channels 129-253: used as reference channels

 

• Channel 254 (feedback): Power Fail (used with 'PON' and 'POF'

 

commands)

 

• Channel 255 (feedback): Power status (when IO Link is set)

 

• IR ports support data mode (at limited baud rates and wiring distances).

 

• Two 8-pin 3.5 mm mini-Phoenix (female) connectors provide IR/Serial port

 

termination

 

 

Configuration Port

USB connector (male) can be connected to a USB port on a computer. This

 

low-speed USB connection is used to configure system settings.

 

Not recommended for firmware updates or large file transfers.

 

 

Configuration DIP switch

4 configuration DIP switches used solely for enabling or disabling NetLinx

 

functionality.

 

 

ID pushbutton

Provides the NetLinx ID (Device only) assignment for the device. Refer to

 

the Changing the Device Address of a NetLinx Device section on page 20.

 

• The D notation is used to represent a device number.

 

 

LAN port

RJ-45 port for 10/100 Mbps communication.

 

This port automatically negotiates the connection speed (10 Mbps or 100

 

Mbps) and whether to use half duplex or full duplex mode.

 

 

LAN Link/Activity LED

LEDs show communication activity, connection status, speeds, and mode

 

information:

 

SPD (speed) - Yellow LED lights On when the connection speed is 100

 

Mbps and turns Off when the speed is 10 Mbps.

 

L/A (link/activity) - Green LED lights On when the LAN cables are

 

connected/terminated correctly, and blinks when receiving LAN data

 

packets.

 

 

AXlink LED

• Green LED indicates the state of the AXlink connector port.

 

• Normal AXlink activity = 1 blink/second

 

• Abnormal AXlink activity = cycle of 3 consecutive blinks and then Off

 

 

AXlink port

4-pin 3.5 mm mini-Phoenix (male) connector provides data and power to

 

external control devices.

 

 

Power port

2-pin 3.5 mm mini-Phoenix (male) connector

 

 

Included Accessories:

2-pin 3.5 mm mini-Phoenix (female) PWR connector (41-5025)
