Searching for connected devices
Please follow the next steps in order to search for the EnBOX devices
connected to the local network:
-
connect the host PC and the EnBOX directly with an Ethernet cable (or
through a network);
-
verify that the
“Link LED”
on the RJ45 connector is turned on (
amber
for a 1
Gbps connection as shown in
Figure 4
or
green
for a 100 Mbps connection).
The LED is turned off if the Ethernet cable is not connected or if the speed of
connection is limited to 10 Mbps (in this last case the device is working
correctly even if it is not recommended to use a slow connection since the data
transfer rate is limited);
