NL240 Wireless Network Link Interface

The NL240 must be connected to the datalogger before

configuring the datalogger with DevConfig. If it is not connected,

the TCP/IP settings will not be displayed.

By default, the NL240 uses the datalogger’s CS I/O Interface #2.

If connecting more than one NL240 to a datalogger, one NL240

can be configured to use CS I/O Interface #1. This is done by

connecting to the NL240 in DevConfig, going to the Settings

Editor tab, and changing the CS I/O IP Interface Identifier from 2

to 1. If this setting is changed, the IP address, Subnet Mask, and

IP gateway should be input under CS I/O Interface #1 on the

datalogger’s CS I/O IP tab. CS I/O Interface #2 communicates

over SDC address 1. CS I/O Interface #1 communicates over SDC

address 3.

8.2.2.4 LoggerNet Setup

The next step is to run LoggerNet and configure it to connect to the datalogger

via the Wi-Fi port. (See example in FIGURE 8-2 below.)

In the LoggerNet Setup screen, press

Add Root and choose IPPort. Input

the datalogger’s IP address and port number. The IP address and port

number are input on the same line separated by a colon. (The datalogger’s

default port number is 6785. It can be changed using DevConfig. Unless

firewall issues exist, the port number does not need to be changed from its

default value.)

Add a PakBus® Port.

Add the datalogger (CR800, CR1000, or CR3000) and input the PakBus®

address of the datalogger.

You can verify that your settings are correct by selecting the datalogger in

the Network Map, selecting the Clock tab, and pressing

Check Clocks. If

your settings are correct, you should see the current clock of your server

and datalogger.
