NPort 5600 Series User’s Manual Getting Started

You should also pay attention to the following points:
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 communication wiring and power wiring in 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 that shares similar electrical characteristics can
be bundled together.
Keep input wiring and output wiring separate.
Where necessary, it is strongly advised that you label wiring to all devices in the system.
Connecting NPort 5610/30/50-16/8’s Power
Connect NPort 5610/30/50-16/8’s 100-240 VAC power line with its AC connector. If the power is
properly supplied, the “Ready” LED will show a solid red color until the system is ready, at which
time the “Ready” LED will change to a green color.
Connecting NPort 5610-16/8-48V’s Power
To connect NPort 5610-16/8-48V’s power cord with its terminal block, follow the steps given
below:
V+ V-
1. Loosen the screws on the V
+
and V
-
terminals of NPort 5610-16/8-48V’s
terminal block.
2. Connect the power cord’s 48 VDC wire to the terminal block’s V
+
terminal, and the power cord’s DC Power Ground wire to the terminal
block’s V
-
terminal, and then tighten the terminal block screws. (Note:
NPort 5610-16/8-48V can still operate even if the DC 48V and DC Power
Ground are reversed.)
If the power is properly supplied, the “Ready” LED will show a solid red color until the system is
ready, at which time the “Ready” LED will change to a green color.
NOTE
You should use 8 kg-cm of screw torque and 22-14 AWG of suitable electric wire to connect
NPort 5610-16/8-48V’s power cord to its terminal block.
Grounding NPort 5610-16/8-48V
Grounding and wire routing helps limit the effects of noise due to electromagnetic interference
(EMI). Run the ground connection from the ground screw to the grounding surface prior to
connecting devices.
V+ V-
SG
The Shielded Ground (sometimes called Protected Ground) contact is the
second contact from the right of the 5-pin power terminal block connector
located on the rear panel of NPort 5610-16-48V/5610-8-48V. Connect the
SG wire to the Earth ground.
