Hardware Setup
2
1. Connect the power supply to the Ether-Serial Link and to AC
power.
2. The power (red) LED will light to indicate that the unit is
receiving power.
3. Connect a network cable to the Ethernet RJ-45 jack of the
Ether-Serial Link. The other end of the network cable can be
attached to either:
• an Ethernet hub or switch, using a length of standard
Ethernet network cable
• a host PC directly, using an Ethernet cross-over cable.
Network status is indicated by two LEDs on the RJ-45 connector.
The left (yellow) LED indicates network activity. It is on by default,
turning off when network activity occurs at the Ether-Serial Link.
The right (green) LED indicates a network link. It is off by default,
but lights when a network link exists.
