Overview The NL200/201 Network Link Interface is a device used to communicate with Campbell Scientific dataloggers and peripherals using an Ethernet 10/100 Mbps communications link. The NL200/201 includes a CS I/O port and an RS-232 port for communication. A USB device port is used for configuring the NL200/201 device. FIGURE 4-1.

Overview
The NL200/201 Network Link Interface is a device used to communicate with
Campbell Scientific dataloggers and peripherals using an Ethernet 10/100
Mbps communications link.
The NL200/201 includes a CS I/O port and an
RS-232 port for communication.
A USB device port is used for configuring
the NL200/201 device.

Bridge Mode Enabled
The NL200/201 can be configured to bridge Ethernet and CS I/O
communications (Bridge Mode enabled).
This mode is used for providing
access to the internal IP functionality of the CR800/850, CR1000, and CR3000
(e.g., web page access, email, FTP, etc.).
Bridge mode does not utilize PPP.
Instead, raw IP packets are transferred between the Ethernet and CS I/O
connections.
