Installation and Upgrading Installation and Upgrading Device:Port:System (D:P:S) A device is any hardware component that can be connected to an AXlink bus. Each device must be assigned a unique number to locate that device on the bus. Only the Device value can be set through the DIP switch settings mentioned above. NetLinx requires a Device:Port:System (D:P:S) specification. This D:P:S triplet can be expressed as a series of constants, variables separated by colons, or a DEV structure. For e

Installation and Upgrading Installation into an Equipment Rack Use the rack-mounting ears supplied with the NI-3101-SIG controller for equipment rack installations. The device comes installed with four rubber feet for flat surface installations. The maximum operating ambient temperature is 40°C. Connect the unit only to a properly-rated supply circuit. Never restrict the airflow through the devices’ fan or vents. When installing equipment into a rack, distribute the units evenly. Otherwise, ha

Connections and Wiring Connections and Wiring Setting the Configuration DIP Switch for the Configuration Port Prior to installing the Controller, use the Configuration DIP switch to set the information used by the Configuration Port for communication. The DIP switchsets the starting address (the device number in the D:P:S specification) for the Control Cards installed in the controller with a range of 1-1536. The four-pin Configuration DIP switch is located on the rear of the device. Program

Connections and Wiring Configuration Port Connections and Wiring The NI-3101 is equipped with a low-speed USB connection located on the rear of the unit. Use a standard USB cable to establish a connection between the device and your PC's USB port. This connection provides communication with the NetLinx Integrated Controller. From there, configure the on-board Master as needed for your application. Modes and Front Panel LED Blink Patterns The following table lists the modes and blink patterns

Connections and Wiring Wiring Guidelines The Integrated Controllers use a 12 VDC-compliant power supply to provide power through the rear 2-pin 3.5 mm mini-Phoenix PWR connector, or through the 4-pin 3.5 mm mini-Phoenix (female) captive-wire connector used for data communication and power transfer. Use the power requirements referenced in the product’s Specifications table to determine the power draw. The incoming PWR and GND cable from the power supply must be connected to the corresponding

Connections and Wiring Wiring a power connection To use the 2-pin 3.5 mm mini-Phoenix connector with a 12 VDC-compliant power supply, the incoming PWR and GND cables from the external source must be connected to their corresponding locations on the connector (FIG. 4). 1. Insert the PWR and GND wires on the terminal end of the 2-pin 3.5 mm mini-Phoenix cable. Match the wiring locations of the +/- on both the power supply and the terminal connector. 2. Tighten the clamp to secure the two wires
