Note:
If you are unsure which device on a link is the master
and which is the slave, just choose either device to connect to
BR SLAVE
and the other to
BR MSTR
. If you guessed incorrectly,
the RAD-Star will not function, but you can simply swap the two
connectors—you can’t damage an ECU or the RAD-Star by
connecting two master or two slave devices to each other.
3. Connect Ethernet Cables to RAD-Star:
Connect one end of each of the supplied
conventional Ethernet cables to the
SLAVE
and
MASTER
ports on the RAD-Star
(Figure 10). You will again hear a click as the jacks are attached.

4. Connect Ethernet Cable to PC:
Connect a third Ethernet cable to the PC that you wish
to use to monitor traffic coming from the RAD-Star (
Figure 11: Connecting the Ethernet Cable to a PC.
5. Connect Ethernet Cables to Ethernet Switch:
Insert the other ends of the cables you
just connected to the RAD-Star and PC into open jacks in your Ethernet switch (or hub).
(For most devices, the exact choice of ports on the switch/hub does not matter.)
