DIN-rail Mounting

In the package, the metal DIN-rail mounting kit is fixed to the back panel of the NAT-102 Series. Mount the NAT-102 Series on a corrosion-free mounting rail that adheres to the EN 60715 standard.

Suggested Installation Method

STEP 1:
Insert the upper lip of the DIN-rail kit into the mounting rail.
STEP 2:
Press the NAT-102 Series towards the mounting rail until it snaps into place.

Suggested Removal Method

STEP 1:
Pull down the latch on the DIN-rail kit with a screwdriver.
STEPS 2 & 3:
Slightly pull the NAT-102 Series forward and lift it up to remove it from the mounting rail.

Wall Mounting

For some applications, you will find it convenient to mount the NAT-102 Series on the wall, as shown in the following illustrations.
STEP 1:

MOXA-NAT-102-Series-Industrial-NAT-Device-fig7

Remove the aluminum DIN-rail attachment plate from the rear panel of the NAT-102 Series, and then attach the wall mount plates with three M3 screws.

STEP 2:

Mounting the NAT-102 Series on the wall requires two M3 screws. Use the NAT-102 Series with the wall mount plates attached as a guide to mark the correct location of the two screws.

Please read and follow these guidelines:

  • Use separate paths to route wiring for power and devices. If power wiring and device wiring paths must cross, make sure the wires are perpendicular at the intersection point.

NOTE: Do not run signal or communications wiring and power wiring through the same wire conduit. To avoid interference, wires with different signal characteristics should be routed separately.

  •  You can use the type of signal transmitted through a wire to determine which wires should be kept separate. The rule of thumb is that wiring sharing similar electrical characteristics can be bundled together.
  •  You should separate input wiring from output wiring.
  • We advise that you label the wiring to all devices in the system.
  • This product is intended for installation in Restricted Access Location.

Grounding the NAT-102 Series

Grounding and wire routing help limit the effects of noise due to electromagnetic interference (EMI). Run the ground connection from the ground screw (M4 type) to the grounding surface prior to connecting devices.
The grounding wire must be connected to the grounding screw using a cable lug. The grounding cable must have a cross-sectional area that is the same or larger than the 0.08 mm² (28 AWG) to 1.31 mm² (16 AWG) terminal input conductor wire.

Wiring the Power Inputs

The NAT-102 Series has one power input. The top and side views of the terminal block connector are shown below.

MOXA-NAT-102-Series-Industrial-NAT-Device-fig13

STEP 1:
Use a small flat-blade screwdriver to press a wire locker.
STEP 2:
Insert a positive/negative DC wire into the V+/V- terminals respectively.
STEP 3:
Release the wire locker and check whether the wire is fixed. The input terminal block (J1) should be installed using 16-28 AWG wires with 8-9 mm of the conductor insulation stripped.The power cord adapter should be connected to a socket outlet with an earthing connection. The power cord and adapter must comply with Class II construction. This product is intended to be supplied by a UL Listed Power Adapter or DC power source marked ‘L.P.S’ or ‘Limited Power Source’, rated 12 to 48 VDC, 0.196 A (min.), and Tma 75°C (min.). If you require further assistance, please contact your Moxa representative.

Communication Connections

Each NAT-102 Series has two types of communication ports:

  •  Type-C console port (RS-232 interface, baudrate: 115200, 8-N-1)
  • 10/100BaseT(X) Ethernet ports

TYPE-C Console Port Connection

The NAT-102 Series provides one TYBP-C console port located on the top panel. Connect the industrial secure router to a PC COM port using the Type-C-to-DB9 connection cable, and then launch a console terminal software, e.g. Moxa PComm Terminal Emulator, to access the NAT-102 Series’ console configuration utility.

10/100BaseT(X) Ethernet Port Connection

The 10/100BaseT(X) ports located on the NAT-102 Series front panel are used to connect to Ethernet-enabled devices. Most users will choose to configure these ports for Auto MDI/MDI-X mode, in which case the port’s pinouts are adjusted automatically depending on the type of Ethernet cable used (straight-through or cross-over), and the type of device (NIC-type or HUB/Switch-type) connected to the port. No matter which case you are connecting, we share pinouts for both MDI (NIC-type) ports and MDI-X (HUB/Switch-type) ports.

The Reset Button

Using a pointed object such as a straightened paperclip or toothpick, depress the Reset button for five seconds to load the factory default settings. When pressing down, the STATE LED will start to blink about once per second. Continue to depress until the STATE LED begins blinking more quickly, indicating that the device is resetting and you can release.

NOTE DO NOT power off the device when loading default settings.

LED Indicators

The front panel of the NAT-102 Series has several LED indicators. The function of each LED is described in the following table:
