Figure 17: Connecting an Ethernet Cable to the RAD-Star.
The port chosen must match that chosen for the BroadR-Reach
cable. Here we are attaching to the
MASTER
Ethernet port because we used the
BR MSTR
4. Connect Ethernet Cable to PC:
Connect the other end of the Ethernet cable to the
Ethernet port on your PC (as shown earlier in Figure 11).
5. Connect Power Supply to RAD-Star:
Attach the cable coming from your DC power
supply to the RAD-Star. If the power supply is on, the link LED for the connected
Ethernet port should now illuminate.
You’re done; the RAD-Star can now be used as a media converter (Figure 18 shows a typical
configuration). Please refer to the troubleshooting and support information that follows if you
encounter any problems with the setup.

RAD-Star Configured as a Media Converter.
This setup uses the
BR MSTR
and
MASTER
ports as described in
the connection steps. We have again used an Intrepid Ethernet EVB as an example ECU.
