2.3   Installing the EKKO Projector Adapter 

The adapter should be placed in a ventilated area away from direct sources of heat.

Network Link (Green) 

Network Activity (Yellow) 

VGA Connector 

Idle Status (Green) 

Client Status (Yellow) 

Figure 1 and Figure 2 show the details of the various sockets, which should be connected as follows: 

1.

 

Connect a projector to the VGA Connector 

2.

 

Connect the EKKO Projector Adapter to the Ethernet network using the NETWORK socket 

3.

 

Connect the power adaptor to the POWER socket 

When the power is switched on the device will go through a boot sequence which will take a few 
seconds (see section 3.2 ). Once the boot is complete the Network Link indicator and the Idle Status 
indicator should be lit. The Network Activity light will flash intermittently when there is other activity 
on the network. If the device does not boot within 15 seconds, check the troubleshooting section 
below (section 3.3.1 ). 

At this point, assuming the adapter has been given an IP address as described in section 2.1.3  above, it 
is  possible to test that it is operating correctly, using the ping command-line utility, e.g.: 

ping ekko1 

or 

ping 192.168.0.101 

If the EKKO Projector Adapter’s IP address and/or name is not known, it will be necessary to examine 
the DHCP server’s information panel or logs for this information.  This is best done by your network 
administrator.
