4.4. Console Port Connection

The Console Port is a male, DB9 connector, wired in a DTE configuration (similar to an AT computer), which is used for connection to a local PC or control device. Appendix A describes the Console Port interface.

4.5. Connecting an External Modem

When connecting directly to an external modem, use a standard DB9 AT to Modem cable. Section 5.4 describes the procedure for defining the modem command strings. Appendix A describes the modem port interface.

4.6. Connecting the Network Cable

The Network Port is an RJ45 Ethernet jack, for connection to a TCP/IP network. Connect your 10Base-T cable to the Network Port. Before attempting to access the unit via network, please assign the IP Address, Gateway Address and Subnet Mask as described in Section 5.6.

Note: The NPS-2HD features a 10BaseT interface. When connecting the NPS to a 100BaseT interface, note that most router switches will autosense to determine if the device is 100BaseT or 10BaseT and then configure the network interface accordingly. If your router switch does not auto-configure for 10BaseT vs. 100BaseT, then the network interface port must be manually set to 10BaseT.
