Quick Start Guide VNET USB RS232 INTERFACE
Operation
Once the VNET™ Interface has been connected to the computer and to the devices
(and if applicable, to the optional VNET™ Power Supply) then there are no further adjustments
to make on the interface itself. The indicators on the front of the unit operate as follows
(1)
The EXT Power indicator will illuminate when DC power is being applied to the EXT
Power socket on the rear of the unit.
(2)
The NET Power indicator will illuminate when the unit is applying power to the
network. This is used for powering network-powered accessories, and for signalling.
(3)
The USB indicator will illuminate when the unit has an active USB connection
with a computer.
(4)
The Net DATA indicator will illuminate when data is being received from the network.
(5)
The Net TX indicator will illuminate when the unit is transmitting data onto
the network.

Trouble Shooting
The EXT Power indicator does not illuminate
If you are operating via RS232, you need to use the Accessory Power Supply. Make sure this
is connected properly. Check if the power indicator on the Power Supply illuminates. If you
are operating via USB (and there are no network-powered devices on the network), it is not
usually necessary for an external power supply to be used, in which case this indicator will
not illuminate.
The USB indicator does not illuminate
Make sure the USB cable is plugged in both ends. If you are using a USB hub, make sure it is
capable of providing sufficient power. You may need to use a powered hub. Has the driver
been installed? Try unplugging the USB cable, then plugging it in again. If you are using RS232,
this indicator will not illuminate.
Cannot find the COM port for the USB device
Has the driver been installed? Is the USB cable plugged in both ends? Does the USB indicator
illuminate? (Check above).
PodWare finds no devices
Have you selected the correct COM port in PodWare? Are the appropriate indicators illuminated?
(See above).
Make sure the network cable is not too long, is correctly connected, and is not damaged.
Check that the Tx indicator flashes when PodWare attempts to go online.
Will not operate via RS232
Have you selected the correct COM port inPodWare? You must use the Accessory Power Supply
when operating via RS232.
