STEP 5: DETERMINE COMMUNICATION
The options in this section are in the DMP-recommended installation order� If an option is not part of your
application, move to the next option�
Ethernet Connection
Connect an Ethernet cable from the LAN/WAN connection to the X1 PCB
Ethernet port�
Two LEDs are located on the Ethernet port�
• The green LED indicates data is being sent over the network�
• The yellow LED indicates the speed of the transmission� A solid
yellow LED indicates the network is connected at 100BASE-T� A

Ethernet Port
Wi-Fi Connection
A Wi-Fi connection or a static IP address must be established after
power up� See Wi-Fi instructions later in this guide�
Note:
You can connect via an Ethernet or a Wi-Fi connection, but
not both at the same time�
Wi‑Fi Antenna
The yellow Wi-Fi antenna connects to the right of the cell antenna on the

Cellular Connection (Optional)
If the network cable or Wi-Fi are not connected, cell will be the primary communication� If the network cable
or Wi-Fi are connected, the cell will be the backup communication�
1� Plug the included standoff into the X1 Elevator Controller board�
2� Carefully insert the antenna connector of the new cell module through the top of the enclosure�
3� Plug the cell module onto the standoff�
4� Press the cell module onto the cell header�
5� Screw on the cell module antenna to the antenna connector with the washer on the outside of the
