Plug the power supply into the MIU-1500 and make sure it is connected to a working outlet. The red power light will
come on when the MIU is plugged in.
The red light indicates that the MIU-1500 is functioning. The MIU-1500 also uses the red light to indicate
reception of a packet from a transmitter. The MIU-1500 will blink the red light momentarily indicating a packet
has been received and processed.
Connecting to PC
A crossover cable is included with the MIU-1500 setup. Plug the crossover cable into the Ethernet port on the
back of your computer and plug the other end into the Ethernet port on the MIU-1500. The Ethernet Link light
(green light) will turn on indicating a valid Ethernet physical connection.
Connecting to LAN
Alternatively you can connect the Manager to your Local Area Network. Your network administrator can help you
decide which IP address to assign to the Manager.
Testing the Connection
To check to see if you have made a connection, open your browser and type
in http://192.168.1.55. The browser should display the MIU-1500 count
screen. The screen will not show sensors until they are configured.
