128 DC-200/300 Operation Manual
12.2.4 Connection from Scale to PC via Ethernet Port
If you are connecting the scale directly to an IBM-compatible PC, use a Category 5 Ethernet Crossover cable.
(The cable MUST be a crossover cable, not a standard Ethernet cable.) Plug one end of the cable into the
Ethernet port on the DC-200/300 scale and the other end into the network card on the computer. If you need help
selecting the right cable or port on your computer, contact your Network Administrator or your DIGI dealer.
If you are connecting the scale to a network hub, use a regular or “straight” Category 5 Ethernet cable. Plug one
end of the cable into the Ethernet port on the DC-200/300 scale and the other end into an open port on the hub. If
you need help selecting the right cable or checking the configuration of your hub, contact your Network
Administrator.
