CONFIGURING THE ETHERNET OVER COAX

6.  Once all possible nodes have been detected, the program will display all of 

these nodes as in the window below.

The local node that the computer is connected to will appear as the “ETH 
connected node”. All remote nodes will be listed as “PLC connected nodes”.

NOTE: 

Both the local and remote nodes must use the same Net ID and 

encryption passwords for proper operation. These will be confi gured in the next
step. However, it is important to confi gure the remote nodes fi rst. If the local node
is confi gured fi rst, all remote nodes will become inaccessible and will have to be 
removed from their locations and physically connected to the computer, where 
they can be confi gured to match the local node’s settings.

7.

To begin confi guration, click on the mac address of the remote node (PLC 
connected node) and then click on the next button.
