NL121 Ethernet Module 1. Introduction Campbell Scientific's NL121 Ethernet Module enables Ethernet communications. It allows the datalogger to communicate over a local network or a dedicated Internet connection via Ethernet. This small, rugged communication device connects to the 40-pin peripheral port on a CR1000 or CR3000 datalogger. This manual describes how to use LoggerNet to connect to your datalogger with an NL121 attached. You can also use other software packages such as PC400, RTDAQ, or LoggerLink Mobile Apps for iOS and Android. Before using the NL121, please study: • Section 2, Cautionary Statements (p. 1) • Section 3, Initial Inspection (p. 1) • Section 4, Quickstart (p. 2) The Quickstart section explains how to quickly begin using an NL121 for straightforward Ethernet communications. Section 6, TCP/IP Functionality (p. 9), describes in detail the IP functionality of the NL121. 2. Cautionary Statements • READ AND UNDERSTAND the Precautions section at the front of this manual. • The NL121 requires CR1000 or CR3000 operating system version 28 or later. • The first time an NL121 is attached to a datalogger, the datalogger's memory has to be reorganized to allow room in memory for the IP stack. To avoid the loss of data, collect your data before attaching the NL121 to a datalogger. • The NL121 is rugged, but it should be handled as a precision scientific instrument. • Shielded Ethernet cable should be used for cable length longer than 9 ft. • Always power down the datalogger before installing or removing the NL121 to or from the datalogger. 3.

Introduction
Campbell Scientific’s NL121 Ethernet Module enables Ethernet
communications.
It allows the datalogger to communicate over a local network
or a dedicated Internet connection via Ethernet.
This small, rugged
communication device connects to the 40-pin peripheral port on a CR1000 or
CR3000 datalogger.
This manual describes how to use
LoggerNet
to connect to your datalogger
with an NL121 attached. You can also use other software packages such as
PC400
,
RTDAQ
, or
LoggerLink Mobile Apps for iOS and Android
.
Before using the NL121, please study:
•
Section
2
,
Cautionary Statements
(p. 1)
•
Section
3
,
Initial Inspection
(p. 1)
•
Section
4
,
Quickstart
(p. 2)
The Quickstart section explains how to quickly begin using an NL121 for
straightforward Ethernet communications.
Section
6
,
TCP/IP Functionality
(p. 9)
,
describes in detail the IP functionality of the NL121.
2.
Cautionary Statements
•
READ AND UNDERSTAND the
Precautions
section at the front of this
manual.
•
The NL121 requires CR1000 or CR3000 operating system version 28 or
later.
•
The first time an NL121 is attached to a datalogger, the datalogger’s
memory has to be reorganized to allow room in memory for the IP stack.
To avoid the loss of data, collect your data before attaching the NL121 to a
datalogger.
•
The NL121 is rugged, but it should be handled as a precision scientific
instrument.
•
Shielded Ethernet cable should be used for cable length longer than 9 ft.
•
Always power down the datalogger before installing or removing the
NL121 to or from the datalogger.
3.
Initial Inspection
Upon receipt of the NL121, inspect the packaging and contents for damage.
File damage claims with the shipping company.
