After connecting the power supply 

the blue symbol “Power LED” lights up.  

3-5 seconds after the sensor is initialized (the yellow LED is flashing) and ready for 
operation. 
To configure the EP-DMD-4, connect the Ethernet interface of the sensor to the LAN port 
of a PC or a laptop. Use the included crossover-cable for that purpose.  
Important:
