Pair Connection Mode

for

NPort IA Device Servers

Pair Connection Mode for NPort IA device servers involves

configuring two NPort IA5150 device servers to communicate

solely with each other. The two device servers can be

connected directly using optical fiber cables, or they can

communicate indirectly over a TCP/IP network.

The greater versatility provided by the NPort IA5150 device

servers comes with a small price. Before using the servers, you

need to take care of some basic configuration tasks. The

configuration can be done over the network by Telnet or web

browser interface, or by using the Windows configuration utility

that comes with the server. In addition, the configuration can

be done using terminal emulation software after connecting

the NPort IA5150’s serial console port directly to your PC’s COM

port (RS-232 interface).

There are three basic configuration steps:

1) Assign an IP address and netmask to each NPort IA.

2) Set each NPort IA for “pair connection” mode (one NPort is

set to “master” and the other NPort is set to “slave”), and

enter the IP address of the NPort on the opposite side of

the pair connection.

3) Configure each NPort for the type of serial interface,

baudrate, and serial interface—RS-232, RS-422, or

RS-485—of the attached serial device (the baudrate and

format must be the same on both ends).

The complete configuration process is described in the user’s

manual.
