4.1 For Evaluation/Demonstration Purposes
A Thermo Scientific AquaSensors Ethernet product can be connected to a computer using
a power injector and a CAT5 cross-over cable. This “point-to-point” connection is
convenient for initial setup because it avoids the possibility of an IP address conflict.
This connection method is also convenient for evaluating or demonstrating a DataStick
measurement system.
To set up the network, you will need the following:
•
a computer with a Web browser and an Ethernet port
•
an Ethernet DataStick or an AV38 with Ethernet option
•
a CAT5 cross-over cable
•
a power injector such as the one shown in Figure 17
Figure 17: A power injector.
An Ethernet DataStick network is shown diagrammatically in Figure 18 and an AV38
network is shown in Figure 19.
