Connecting the Ethernet Line
The 10/100BaseT Ethernet Port auto-negotiates speed and duplex mode in accordance
with the remote equipment to which it is connected; Ethernet speed and duplex mode
configurations cannot be configured on the ENE2020. For the best connection results,
the remote device (PC, hub, or switch) should be set to auto-negotiate speed and duplex
mode. If the remote device cannot be configured to auto-negotiate, speed may be set at
either 10 Mbps or 100 Mbps but duplex mode must be set to Half Duplex. A
10/100BaseT Ethernet connection will not operate properly if the remote device is set to
Full Duplex.
Procedure
1.
Plug the Ethernet cable into the 10/100 Ethernet Port on the back of the ENE2020.
2.
Verify the connection: solid green illumination of the 10/100 Ethernet Connection
Lnk (Link) LED on the front of the ENE2020 indicates a connection has been
established. If the Ethernet Lnk LED is illuminated but not the Ethernet 100 LED,
then a 10 Mbps connection has been established. If the Ethernet Lnk and 100 LEDs
are both illuminated, then a 100 Mbps connection has been established.
For most applications, the ENE2020 connects to a PC using a straight-through Ethernet
cable and to a hub or a switch using a crossover Ethernet cable. For any other
connection combinations you must verify the pinout of the Ethernet device to which you
are connecting the ENE2020 in order to determine which type of cable is required.
