Connecting ThickWire Ethernet Loopback Connectors
ThickWire Ethernet connectors can be in one or more of the
option slots on the back of the system unit. Figure 3-3 shows a
ThickWire Ethernet connector in option slot 2.
If you have a ThickWire option module installed in your system
unit and you want to use your workstation without connecting
it to a ThickWire Ethernet network, connect a ThickWire
loopback connector to the ThickWire connector on the system
unit.
If you want to connect your workstation to a ThickWire
network, see the discussion of ThickWire network connections
in Chapter 6 of this guide.
To install ThickWire Ethernet loopback connectors
1. For each ThickWire connector on the system unit, find the
square ThickWire Ethernet loopback connector that came
with your shipment.
2. Position the loopback connector so the Digital logo is on top.
3. Firmly press the loopback connector onto the ThickWire
connector.
