E-1608 Quick Start 

Connect the external power adapter 

Power to the E-1608 is provided by the 5 V external power adapter 
(PS-5V1AEPS). Connect the adapter cord to the power connector on the  
E-1608 and plug the AC adapter into an electrical outlet.  

The 

Power

 LED turns on when 5 V power is supplied to the E-1608. 

The 

Power

 LED remains off if the voltage is less than 3.3 V or more 

than 5.9 V.  

Refer to Figure 1 for the location of the 

Power

 LED. 

Connecting the device to a network or PC 

The E-1608 requires a TCP/IP and UDP connection to a network or 
computer. Use the standard Ethernet cable provided to connect the  
E-1608 to a 10Base-T- or 100Base-TX-compatible Ethernet port, hub, 
or switch.  

1.

 

When connecting the E-1608 for the first time, make sure that you 
connect to a local network with DHCP enabled.  

If you do not have access to a local network or DHCP is not enabled 
on that network, use a direct connection to a Windows PC.  

 

It may take a minute or two to detect the device and assign the 

address. The green 

Link/activity

 LED turns on when there is a valid 

Ethernet link, and blinks when network activity is detected. 
Once the E-1608 is physically connected to the local network or PC, run 
InstaCal to establish a connection.  

Refer to Figure 1 for the location of the 

Link/activity

 LED. 

For Android devices, establish a connection by running a UL for Android 
example project. Refer to the 

UL for Android Example Projects

 help topic 

to learn how to deploy and run Android example projects. The default
