Figure 6.0-1 - Two Methods of Using an Ethernet Interface to the AMP-1030P Module
Although not required, it is recommended the AMP-1030P module not be connected to any optical
sources the first time it is powered on so proper operation of the LED indicator can be checked.
Keeping the dust caps on the two optical connectors, plug the included AC/DC power adapter into
a 120 VAC wall outlet and into the AMP-1030P module’s “DC” port. The LED on the top side of the
module should illuminate to a red color indicating that DC power is being supplied to the module
and that the optical power input is below the Loss-of-Signal (LOS) level. If the LED does not
illuminate, it is an indication that DC power is not being supplied to the module through the
AC/DC power adapter (or through the USB port). It should be noted that both the AC/DC power
adapter and the USB cable can be plugged into the AMP-1030P module simultaneously, an internal
diode-OR will allow these two DC sources to share the power load.

Initial Setup for Ethernet Control/Status
The AMP-1030P module is shipped in Static IP address mode to allow communication via a direct
connection to a standalone computer as shown in the upper block diagram of Figure 6.0-1. In
order to initially communicate with the AMP-1030P, setup the Ethernet port of the standalone
computer as given in Table 6.1-1.
