NL200/201 Network Link Interface Some reasons you might want to use each of these modes are described below. Refer to Section 6, Configuring the NL200/201, and Section 7, Operation, for information on setting up your NL200/201 for each mode. Campbell Scientific's LoggerNet software is used to communicate with the dataloggers once the NL200/201 is configured properly and connected to a network. Bridge Mode • Allows access to datalogger's internal IP functionality when a peripheral port is not accessible. For example accessing the HTTP/webpage, email, and FTP capabilities of a CR800/850, ET107, RAWS, or CS110. Serial Server • Allows access to a CR10X over Ethernet (RS-232 serial server) when used in conjunction with an RS-232 to CS I/O (ME) adapater like the SC32B or SC105. • Allows access to a serial sensor over Ethernet (RS-232 serial server). • Provides an Ethernet to RF500M Base. (RS-232 serial server). PakBus Router • Allows access to a CR10X-PB over Ethernet. • Allows access to a CR200X over Ethernet. • Allows you to connect to a PakBus Device on the RS-232 port and a PakBus Device on the CS I/O port using only one TCP port. • Allows a PakBus device on the RS-232 port and a PakBus device on the CS I/O port to communicate with each other without routing through the Ethernet. • Allows multiple computers to concurrently talk to PakBus devices connected to the RS-232 and CS I/O ports. TLS Proxy Server • Adds an encrypted Ethernet network interface to a datalogger that supports CS I/O IP (bridge mode) communications. 7

NL200/201 Network Link Interface
Some reasons you might want to use each of these modes are described below.
Refer to Section 6,
Configuring the NL200/201
, and Section 7,
Operation
, for
information on setting up your NL200/201 for each mode.
Campbell Scientific’s LoggerNet software is used to communicate with the
dataloggers once the NL200/201 is configured properly and connected to a
network.
Bridge Mode
•
Allows access to datalogger’s internal IP functionality when a peripheral
port is not accessible.
For example accessing the HTTP/webpage, email,
and FTP capabilities of a CR800/850, ET107, RAWS, or CS110.
Serial Server
•
Allows access to a CR10X over Ethernet (RS-232 serial server) when used
in conjunction with an RS-232 to CS I/O (ME) adapater like the SC32B or
SC105.
•
Allows access to a serial sensor over Ethernet (RS-232 serial server).
•
Provides an Ethernet to RF500M Base. (RS-232 serial server).
PakBus Router
•
Allows access to a CR10X-PB over Ethernet.
•
Allows access to a CR200X over Ethernet.
•
Allows you to connect to a PakBus Device on the RS-232 port and a
PakBus Device on the CS I/O port using only one TCP port.
•
Allows a PakBus device on the RS-232 port and a PakBus device on the
CS I/O port to communicate with each other without routing through the
Ethernet.
•
Allows multiple computers to concurrently talk to PakBus devices
connected to the RS-232 and CS I/O ports.
TLS Proxy Server
•
Adds an encrypted Ethernet network interface to a datalogger that supports
CS I/O IP (bridge mode) communications.
