The following table describes the behavior of the lights on the PLA.
1.3 Standby Mode (Power Saving Mode)
You can set your PLA can go into standby mode when there is no Ethernet connection or activity. Use
the Web Configurator’s
Ethernet screen to set the period of time when the PLA will go into standby
mode. Refer to Section 3.5 on page 21 for details on this feature.
The PLA’s power LED blinks signaling that it is going into standby mode. The Ethernet and Powerline LEDs
are turned off in standby mode.
While in standby mode, you cannot use the RESET/ENCRYPT button. To enable the RESET/ENCRYPT button
again, you have to connect the PLA’s Ethernet cable to a computer/notebook or modem/router first.
The PLA wakes up from standby mode and you can start using the
RESET/ENCRYPT button.
1.4 Ways to Manage the PLA

instructions on using the ENCRYPT feature.
Use the Web Configurator to manage the PLA. See Chapter 3 on page 19 for instructions on using the
Web Configurator.
