clip. Be careful not to bend any pins.  
D. Repeat for each terminal base, up to  
nine for each network module in  
most cases. You can use one or two  
extender cables (which you can order  
separately) if your FieldPoint bank is  
too long for your available space.  
E. Place protective cover on last base.

E. Place protective cover on last base,  
and install rail locks at each end.

Install the I/O Module(s)  
3
It does not matter where you install each I/O module, except for  
these types of situations:  
·
If you plan to cascade power between any I/O modules using the  
V and C terminals, those modules should be grouped together.  
For more accurate measurements, you might want to locate any  
thermocouple modules away from heat sources, including network  
modules or relay modules, unless you are mounting them on an FP-TB-3.  
·
A. Align slots on module with guide rails on  
base, and press onto base until terminal  
base’s latch locks the module in place.  
B. Repeat for each I/O module.  
Connect the Network Cables  
4
Connect the FP-1600 to an Ethernet network by connecting the RJ-45  
Ethernet port of the FP-1600 to an Ethernet hub using a standard Category 5  
Ethernet cable.  
Straight-Through  
UTP Cable

Optionally, you can connect an FP-1600 directly to a computer using an  
Ethernet crossover cable.  
Cross-Over Cable  
Do not use a cable longer than 100 m. If you are using a 100 Mbps Ethernet,  
National Instruments recommends using a Category 5 shielded twisted-pair  
Ethernet. If you need to build your own cable, refer to the FP-1600 User  
Manual for cabling details.  
Wire Power to Your FieldPoint System  
5
A. Connect 11-30 VDC power supply leads to V and C terminals of the  
network module. If you want to verify that your power supply is sufficient  
for your modules and devices, refer to your FieldPoint hardware  
documents for instructions on calculating power requirements.  
B. Connect power to the FieldPoint modules that require external power for  
outputs (output modules, counter modules, PWM, PG, QUAD). Refer to  
the I/O module’s operating instructions for power requirement details.  
You can power a module by connecting the V and C inputs on its terminal  
base to a separate power supply, connecting the V and C outputs of a  
neighboring terminal base or network module, or using a combination of  
both methods. If you want to power field I/O devices from a terminal  
base, supply power to the terminal base, and then connect the terminal  
base V and C output terminals to the field device.

CAUTION: Cascading power from neighboring bases or network modules  
defeats isolation between cascaded modules.

Power Up Your FieldPoint System  
7
CAUTION: Terminal bases must be connected to the FP-1600 before  
power is applied to the FP-1600.  
Plug in each power supply to  
your FieldPoint bank. You should  
see all except the STATUS and  
PROCESS LEDs flash once, and  
the POWER LED come on and  
stay on. After a few seconds, the  
POWER and READY LEDs should  
be lit on each I/O module. If this  
is not the case, refer to your  
FP-1600 user manual for  
troubleshooting instructions.  
POWER and READY LEDs Stay Lit  
The READY LEDs will not light until an IP address is assigned. Likewise, the  
STATUS LED will stay lit until an IP address is assigned.  
After the hardware is installed, you should verify communication, configure  
the modules, configure your power-up states and watchdog settings. If you  
are using National Instruments FieldPoint software for these tasks, continue  
to the following section.

Install the FieldPoint Software  
8
9
A. Close all other applications. If you  
plan to install National Instruments  
development software such as  
Lookout, LabVIEW, or Measurement  
Studio, install them before you  
install the FieldPoint software.  
B. Insert the FieldPoint software CD and follow the onscreen instructions.  
Verify the Installation  
A. Select Start»Programs»National Instruments FieldPoint»FieldPoint  
Explorer.  
B. Right-click on the FieldPoint icon and select Add a comm resource to this  
server.  
10  
 
C. In the Comm Resource  
Configuration dialog box, select  
Ethernet as the Type.  
D. Click Browse, select the  
FP-1600, and click the Device  
Properties button.  
11  
 
E. In the FP-1600 Properties box, enter  
values for the IP address, Subnet  
mask, and Time server IP. You might  
also want to enter a comment to help  
you identify the FP-1600 module.  
IP address is the address of the  
FP-1600 on the network.  
Subnet mask is the mask that is  
applied to the IP address that the  
device uses to find other devices on  
the Ethernet network (255.255.255.0  
is the most common).  
Time server IP is the address of the  
host computer that the FP-1600 will synchronize its clock to. The  
computer must have the Lookout Time Synch service (installed with  
Lookout 4.x or FieldPoint 2.x).  
F Click on Apply, then OK twice to return to the Comm Resource  
Configuration dialog box.  
G. Click on Find Devices.  
H. Expand the +FP Res item on the left side of the Explorer window to see  
the devices found on the network.

If your modules are not  
listed, check the cable and  
connections and make sure the  
modules are all powered on. If  
you still have problems, refer  
to your FP-1600 user manual  
for troubleshooting  
information.

you want to  
change. To select  
more than one  
channel, uncheck  
the One channel  
at a time box.  
NOTE: Configuration options are module-dependent. The options  
listed here might not be available for your particular module. Refer to  
your I/O module operating instructions for details on configuration  
options.  
14  
 
D. Set the range and output values of the selected channel(s).  
E. Set the attributes for the selected channel(s) by selecting the attribute and  
entering the desired value.  
F. Send commands to the selected channel(s) by choosing a command and  
value and clicking on Send.  
G. Repeat this procedure for each channel you want to configure.  
H. Click on the OK button when you are finished, or click on the Apply  
button to save the changes and continue to configure channels. When  
you click on OK or Apply, the changes are immediately sent to the device.  
I. Select File»Save when you are done.

After you get your hardware up and running, you might want to implement  
features such as power-up defaults or network watchdog settings. Refer to  
your FP-1600 user manual or online help for information about features,  
configuration, application development, and troubleshooting.
