15. RS 485 Ports In certain critical environments you may need to add termination resistors to prevent the reflection of serial signals When using termination resistors it is important to set the pull high low resistors properly so that electrical signals do not become corrupted It is improbable for a single pull high low resistor value to suit all the various environments and this is why the NPort IA5000A series provides DIP switches for setting the pull high low resistor values for each serial port The DIP switches are located on the PCB board you will need to take off the covers to access them To set the pull high resistor to 150 KQ flip DIP1 to OFF and then set the pull low resistor to 150 KQ and then flip DIP2 to OFF To set the pull high resistor to 1 KQ flip DIP1 to ON and then set the pull low resistor to 1 KQ and then flip DIP2 to ON Make sure that DIP3 is ON to enable the 1209 terminator The default settings for the pull high and pull low resistors and the terminators are all at OFF DIP Switch a on a EE ON 1 2 3 Port IAS150A nar 3 NPort IA5250A Series OFF EE 2 5 3 Initial I P Address Configuration When setting up your NPort A5000A for the first time the first thing you should do is configure the IP address This chapter introduces the methods that can be used to configure the device server s IP address Select one of the initial IP Address configurati

Port A5000A the host needs a way to determine the NPort A5000A s new IP address NPort A5000A products help out by periodically reporting their IP addresses to the IP location server in case the dynamic IP has changed The parameters shown below are used to configure the Auto IP Report function There are two ways to develop an Auto IP report server to receive the NPort A5000A s Auto IP report 1 Use the NPort Administrator s IP Address Report function 2 Use Auto IP report protocol which can automatically receive the Auto IP report on a regular basis It can also be used to help you develop your own software Refer to Appendix E for the Auto IP report protocol 5 8 NPort I A5000A Series Web Console Configuration Auto report to IP E g 192 168 1 1 or URL IP addresses in the form of x x x 0 and x x X 255 are invalid E Reports generated by the Auto report function will be automatically sent to this IP address Auto report to TCP port E g 4001 4002 Optional Auto report period Serial Settings Click Serial Settings located under Main Menu to display the serial port settings Time interval in seconds Total Solution for Industrial Device Networking Model www moxa com NPort IA5450Al IP NPIA5450Al_ 2 192 168 127 254 Serial NO 2 MAC Address 00 90 E8 12 34 57 1 0 Build 10032318 Name Firmware Serial Settings Main Menu 7

Port IA5000A assumes that the connection was closed unintentionally the NPort A5000A will then force the existing TCP connection to close ATTENTION The Inactivity time should be larger than that of the Force transmit timeout To prevent unintended data loss due to session disconnection it is highly recommended that this value is set large enough so that the intended data transfer can be completed NPort I A5000A Series Web Console Configuration Max connection Max connection is usually used when the user needs to receive data from different hosts simultaneously The factory default only allows 1 connection at a time Max connection lL NPort only allows 1 host to open the TCP connection to the specific serial port Max connection 2 to 8 Allows two to eight host s TCP connection request to open this NPort A5000A serial port at the same time When multiple hosts establish a TCP connection to the specific serial port at the same time NPort A5000A will duplicate the serial data and transmit it to all of the hosts Ethernet data will be sent on a first in first out basis to the serial port when the data is received by the NPort A5000A from the Ethernet interface I gnore jammed IP If you select No when Max connections is gt 1 and the serial device is transmitting data in the event one of the connected hosts is not responding the second group of data will not be sent until all the data from the first group has b
