APPENDIX A – QUICK START GUIDE
This guide shows you how to quickly connect the ESB5001/5004 to your network and to PDA devices with IR
port.
Included in this box are:
•
ES5001 or ES5004 EthIR Switch
•
EB5000DT or EB5000WM EthIR Beam
•
Power
Adapter
•
Ethernet cable and USB cable
Before you start ensure that:
1. You have at least one computer and a network
2. You have TCP/IP networking properly configured on your computer (please refer to Windows help for
more information)
3. You have an Ethernet network and a spare port available on your Ethernet switch
4. You have a PDA device with IR port
Once you have all of this in place move to Step 1 below.
1. Connections
Connect the Ethernet cable into the 10/100 uplink port on the rear of the ES5001/5004. Connect the Ethernet
cable into your switch or hub. Connect EB5000 to ES5001/5004. Connect the power to the back of the unit
and plug the power cord into the wall socket. The power LED should blink slowly on the front of the unit -
there is no on/off switch. The Network LED should now light on the front of the unit if the link is established.
In a DHCP environment, ES5001/5004 (default at DHCP mode) will obtain one IP address from the DHCP
server after power-on. In a non-DHCP environment, the system administrator has to set up an enclosed
DHCP network to access ES5001/5004 configuration via an administration tool as described later in this
guide. The power-on process takes about 20 seconds. The ES5001/5004 can be reset to factory settings
by pushing and holding the Reset Button for eight seconds or longer.
2. PDA connections
Now align IR port of your PDA devices to the lense of EB5000.
