3. Hardware Introduction

Reset Button—Press the Reset button continuously for 5 sec 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.

Signal

Strength

Green The signal quality is indicated by the number

of LEDs that are lit; 4 LEDs indicates

maximum signal strength.

Adjustable pull high/low resistor for RS-422/485

(150 KΩ or 1 KΩ)

Jumpers are used to set the pull

high/low resistors. The default is

150 KΩ. Short the jumpers to set

th is val ue to 1 KΩ. Do not us e the

KΩ setting with RS

-232 mode,

since doing so will degrade the

RS

-232 signals and shorten the

communication distance.

4. Hardware Installation Procedure

STEP 1: Connect the 12-48 VDC power adaptor to the NPort 6450

and then plug the power adaptor into a DC outlet.

STEP 2: For first-time configuration, use a cross-over Ethernet

cable to connect the NPort 6450 directly to your computer’s

Ethernet cable. For connecting to a network, use a standard

straight-through Ethernet cable to connect to a hub or switch.
