PLANEX COMMUNICATIONS INC.

 

[Rack-Mounting] 

Follow the steps below to install the product to a standard 19-inch rack.    Have a 
Phillips head screw driver and the supplied mounting screws (x4) ready. 

 

1)

 

If the supplied rubber footpads have been already attached to the corners 
of the bottom face, please remove all of the rubber footpads. 

2)

 

Locate the rack-mounting screw holes on the side of the product. 

3)

 

Attach the supplied metal rack-mounting fittings to the screw holes. 

4)

 

Align the rack-mounting screw holes on the product with the screw holes 
on your 19-inch rack, and attach the switch to the rack.   

 

2.3 Connecting the Power Cable 

Follow the steps below and firmly attach the supplied power cable to the product. 

 

- Attach the supplied power cable to the connector on the rear side of the 
product. 

1)

 

Attach the 3-lead plug of the power cable to an outlet with grounding. 

2)

 

Installation of the power cable is successful if the Power LED (system 
LED) is turned on.    (Note that all LED's are turned on immediately after 
the product is powered.   During self diagnostics, Console LED will flash.   
Data transfer/communication starts as soon as Console LED goes off.)   

 

2.4 Performing Basic Configuration 

A specific IP address has been assigned to the product prior to its shipment. This 
address needs to be changed if you wish to install multiple units of FMX-24P in the 
same network.    For the method to modify preconfigured IP address, please refer to 
Chapter 3. 

 

2.5 Connecting Hubs and PC's 

This section describes how to connect a LAN adapter (in your PC) or a network 
device (ex. hub, switch) to an RJ-45 connector on the product. Before proceeding, 
please obtain a LAN cable that is appropriate for the network speed between the 
product and the target network device.
