Setting the Baud Rate

Switches 6-8 set the network module baud rate. Table 2-2 shows the
switch positions and the corresponding network baud rates of the
network module.
Note: If you are connecting more than one network module to the same host
computer port, ensure that every network module’s baud rate setting is
identical.
Connecting Power to the FP-1000 or FP-1001
An 11-30 VDC power supply is required by each FieldPoint network
module. The network module filters and regulates this supplied power
and provides power for all the I/O modules in the bank. Therefore you
need not provide power separately to each FieldPoint I/O module in the
bank.
The power connector is a 4-pin screw terminal connector whose pinout
is shown in Figure 2-13.
