Choose a mode of operation
To start a T/NG216 session, follow these steps:
1. Using an Ethernet cable connect to the NetGuardian for network connectivity, or using the provided
download cable connect the NetGuardian's front panel craft port to your PC's COM port.
Note
: T/NG216 will try to read from COM 1 by default. If needed, select the COM port of your PC or to connect
via TCP/IP in the Settings menu. You can select a connection type only when T/NG216 is not in Turn-up and
Test, Analyze, or Firmware Load Mode — see section. 5.2.1 to select a different COM port or see section 5.2.2 to
read via TCP/IP.
2. Run T/NG216.
3. Select either Turn-up and Test, Editor, Analyze, or Load Firmware Mode.
You can also use the Operation Toolbar to Edit, Monitor, Analyze, or Load Firmware to your NetGuardian — see
Figure 5.2 for icon definitions.
