El módulo Campbell Scientific NL201 es un interface RS232/Ethernet que permite conectar dataloggers y periféricos a redes cableadas EtherNet. El NL201 soporta funciones de red sofisticadas, especialmente en redes PakBus con dispositivos PakBus. Configurándolo en modo "bridge" para el puerto CS I/O, el NL201 permite acceder al stack TCP/IP integrado en algunos de nuestros dataloggers. También puede funcionar como un típico "serial server TCP", "serial client", gateway ModBus TCP/IP, y TLS proxy server para HTTPS y comunicación del puerto definida por el usuario.
Leer másEl NL201 es un interface EtherNet que permite conectarse a una red Ethernet 10/100BaseT, full o half duplex. Para su conexión al datalogger, periféricos, ModBus RTU u otros dispositivos serie, dispone de puertos CS I/O y RS-232. Incluye puerto micro USB para facilitar su configuración con nuestro software Device Configuration Utility.
El NL201 puede actuar de router PakBus, TCP serial server, TCP serial client, Modbus TCP/IP gateway, y TLS proxy server para HTTPS y comunicaciones definidas por el usuario.
El NL201 puede configurarse en modo "bridge" sobre el puerto CS I/O, lo cual permite acceder al stack TCP/IP disponible en los dataloggers CR6, CR800, CR850, CR1000, y CR3000 (por ej. página web, email, FTP). De esta forma, con un NL201 conectado al puerto CS I/O de un CR800, tendríamos las misma funcionalidad IP que con un NL121 conectado al puerto para periféricos de 40-pin de un CR1000.

After the OS has been sent, the NL201 will automatically be reset. There is no need to do it manually.
Use the NL201 Network Link Interface.
No. A connection to the NL201 must be made to configure it for bridge mode.
Yes. An OS can be uploaded remotely over TCP/IP using our Device Configuration Utility (DevConfig) software. This method will not work, however, if the device has been configured to operate in bridge mode or if the device has not been configured with a valid IP address.
To upload the OS over TCP/IP, do the following:
Si. Ya disponemos y continuamos desarrollando variedad de productos compatibles con redes IPv6. Por ejemplo, los módulos NL200/201 y NL240 pueden utilizarse ya como "serial servers" IPv6 en nuestros dataloggers y periféricos para comunicaciones. Anticipamos soporte IPv6 para los dataloggers CR800, CR850, CR1000, CR3000 para mediados de 2014.
The NL201 and NL240 are available options.
The NL121 plugs into the datalogger and doesn't require an additional cable to work. The NL121 also doesn't take up much extra space. Because the NL121 has a faster interface to the datalogger than the NL201 does, the NL121 communicates faster.
The NL201 has to be mounted next to the datalogger and requires a cable to connect to it. Also, the NL201 requires some additional configuration so that it will work with the datalogger. For example, choices have to be made regarding how the NL201 is connected to the datalogger.
The NL201 and NL240 are powered via the DC barrel connector and/or the CS I/O port. Sometimes, users who are using the network link
interface as a serial terminal server, PakBus router, or Modbus gateway want to connect their devices via the CS I/O port while
providing power only through the DC barrel connector and a 12 V source (such as a datalogger SW12V output). In this scenario, a jumper
inside the NL201 or NL240 can be removed, preventing the interfaces from always being powered by the CS I/O connections. For more
information, refer to the instruction manual for the interface.
The maximum recommended segment length (length of cable between the NL device and the Ethernet repeater, hub, switch, or router it is connected to) for 10Base-T and 100Base-Tx networks using CAT5e cable is 100 m.
The datalogger needs to have its internal TCP stack active. This can be done using the NL115, NL120, NL201, or NL240.

Notes:
♣The CR300 connects to the NL201 using a 10873 serial that is not supplied with the CR300 or the NL201. The CR300-series dataloggers are not compatible with the bridge mode functionality in the NL201 interface.
* Although compatible, the CR9000X does not need an Ethernet interface because it has an on-board Ethernet port.
** It is possible to use an NL201 to connect to a mixed-array data logger (e.g., CR10, CR10X, CR23X, 21X, CR7) by using an SC32B between the data logger's CS I/O port and the NL201's RS-232 port.
Windows USB drivers for the NL200 Series are installed via the Device Configuration Utililty. In the Device Configuration Utility, click on the link "install the device driver" in the main body of text for the NL200 Series.
Note: Drivers must be installed before connecting the NL200 / NL201 to your computer.
Current NL200 / NL201 firmware. Requires the Device Configuration Utility and a USB micro cable.
Note: When updating to OS 10.03 from OS 6 or previous, settings will be reinitialized to factory defaults. When updating to OS 10.03 from OS 7, settings will be retained.
