Type A to Type B USB cable. The SDM-6000 does not need to be
installed in its intended location or connected to the network in order to
set up the LAN connectivity. It just needs to be connected to the PC
Controller Program. If you have multiple SDM-6000s connected together,
only the leftmost SDM-6000 needs to be connected to the PC.
d. Connect the AC adapter to the SDM-6000 and to an AC wall socket. If
you have multiple SDM-6000s connected together, only the leftmost
SDM-6000 should be connected to power.
e. Flip the SDM-6000’s power switch so that it’s in the ON position. If you
have multiple SDM-6000s connected together, only the power switch of
the leftmost SDM-6000 needs to be flipped.
