The EG-2-NA has in-built network termination . If the EG-2-
NA is at the end of the network, ensure the CAN TERM
jumper is fitted in the Termination ON position .
iCAN devices are ‘daisy-chained’ on the network . Spurs
from the Network are not permitted and will result in
communications problems . Devices on an iCAN network
can be wired in any order . Termination is required at both
ends of the network .

The EG2-NA default settings are to use a fixed
IP address of 192 .168 .0 .100 . Any device used to
communicate with the EG2-NA will need to be
located within the 192 .168 .0 .x subnet unless IP
Address settings are changed .
Power Up
The EG2-NA takes approximately 60 seconds to be ready
for use once power is applied . Wait for the Green CAN
LED to flash slowly . The Green Power LED will double flash
continuously while EG2-NA is on . If Ethernet is connected
the Link and Data LEDs will indicate successful connection .
Setting the IP Address
The factory set IP Address can be changed using iCANsoft
software either through a direct PC Node connection
through the iCANnet or directly into the Ethernet port of the
EG2-NA .
