Before Physical Installation
It is recommended that you create the Powerline data connection next to
each other before physically install the Powerline adapter to the outlet
you want. With this practice, you can have ample time to do the
synchronization with the side by side Powerline adapter instead of
running around to different rooms. And, you can make sure your
Powerline adapters are properly setup and working good in your electric
network.
Note: If you don’t want to change the use the default network name for easy
connection, skip the following steps and go directly to Physical Installation on page

Connecting the Powerline Adapters
1.
Make sure your Powerline adapter is powered on and not in sleep
mode. The Power LED should be on.
2.
Scramble the first Powerline adapter by pushing
Sync
button for 15
seconds. All LEDs will turned off and then turned on again. This will
generate a new random network name for your Powerline adapter.
3.
Make sure the second Powerline adapter is powered on and plug in
the same electric network. No power strip, power break, or any kind
of power switch in between.
Start connecting
4.
Push and hold the
Sync
button on the first (the one with scrambled
network name) Powerline adapter for 2 seconds and then release it.
The Powerline adapter is starting a 2 minutes synchronization
session. It will accept the other synchronization request on the same
electric network. The
Power
LED will start blinking showing it is in
synchronizing.
5.
Push and hold the
Sync
button on the second Powerline adapter for
2 seconds and release it. The
Power
LED will start blinking. The
adapter will request for synchronizing. All LEDs will turn off and
turn back on in the end of the session. The
Powerline
LED will turn
on when the adapters are connected successfully.
Connecting Additional Powerline Adapters
Follow up the same steps described in the last section. You can choose
any one of the Powerline adapter already connected as the first adapter.
Start the synchronization session on that Powerline adapter first. And
then start the synchronization session on the additional Powerline
adapter.
