To connect your cables, complete the following steps:
1.
Connect one end of your Ethernet cable to your GPIB-ENET/100.
Connect the other end of the Ethernet cable to your Ethernet network.
Make sure you comply with all IEEE 802.3 cabling restrictions.
2.
Because AC outlets vary throughout the world, your kit includes a
power cord that meets your local requirements in addition to a power
supply. Figure 2-5 shows how to hook up your power cord and
power supply.
a.
Plug one end of the power cord you received in your kit into the
power supply.
b.
Screw the power connector on the other end of the power supply
onto the power jack of the GPIB-ENET/100.
