NI-2100, NI-3100, NI-4100 Hardware Reference Guide
NI-3100 Specifications (Cont.)
Rear Panel Components (Cont.):
• IR/Serial (Ports 9 - 16): 8 IR/Serial control ports support high-frequency carriers of up to 1.142 MHz
with each output being capable of two electrical formats: IR or Serial.
• 8 IR/Serial data signals can be generated simultaneously.
• IR ports support data mode (at limited baud rates and wiring distances).
• Program Port: RS-232 DB9 connector (male) can be connected to a DB9 port on a PC. This
connector can be used with serial and NetLinx programming commands, as
well as other DB9 capable devices, to both upload/download information from
the NetLinx Studio program.
• Configuration DIP
Switch:
Sets the communication parameters for the Program port (see Baud Rate
Settings).
• ID Pushbutton: Sets the NetLinx ID (Device only) assignment for the device.
• Ethernet Port: RJ-45 connector provides TCP/IP communication. This is an Auto MDI/MDI-X
enabled port, which allows you to use either straight-through or crossover
Ethernet cables.
The Ethernet Port LEDs show communication activity, connection status,
speeds, and mode information:
• SPD (speed) - Yellow LED lights On when the connection speed is 100
Mbps and turns Off when the speed is 10 Mbps.
• L/A (link/activity) - Green LED lights On when the Ethernet cables are
connected and terminated correctly, and blinks when receiving Ethernet
data packets.
• AxLink Port: 4-pin 3.5 mm mini-Phoenix (male) connector that provides data and power to
external control devices. Green AXlink LED indicates the state of the AXlink
port.
• Power Port: 2-pin 3.5 mm mini-Phoenix (male) connector.
