DA50A Cellular Connectivity
Cellular connectivity is achieved using the DA 4G LTE - CAT4/
CAT1 Modem Sled. Refer to the documentation shipped with
your DA 4G LTE - CAT4/CAT1 Modem Sled for installation and
setup information.
Ethernet Communications
Ethernet communications can be established at either 10
BASE-T or 100 BASE-TX. The DA50A’s RJ45 jack is wired as a
NIC (Network Interface Card). For example, when wiring to a hub
or switch use a straight-through cable, but when connecting to
another NIC use a crossover cable. Refer to the Crimson 3.2
Software Guide and Red Lion’s website for additional information
on Ethernet communications.
LED COLOR(S) MEANING
YELLOW solid Link established.
YELLOW flashing Data being transferred.
GREEN (OFF) 10 BASE-T Communications
GREEN (ON) 100 BASE-TX Communications
RS232 PORT
The DA50A has one
RS232 serial port that
can be used for either
programming or for
communications. The
RS232 port can be used
for either master or slave
protocols. The serial port
has a pair of LEDs to
indicate transmit and
receive activity. The
pinout is shown to the
right.
RS485/422 COMMS PORT
The RS485 port of the DA50A can be used for RS485 or RS422
communication. The serial port has a pair of LEDs to indicate
transmit and receive activity.
Note: All Red Lion devices connect A to A and B to B. Refer to
www.redlion.net for additional information.
Examples of RS485 2-Wire Connections
DH485 COMMUNICATIONS
The DA50A’s RS485/422 COMMS port can also be used for
Allen Bradley DH485 communications.
WARNING: DO NOT use a standard DH485 cable to connect
this port to Allen Bradley equipment. A cable and wiring
diagram are available from Red Lion at www.redlion.net/cables-
drivers.
