Establishing a Connection
Description
Once your PC is set up, as described in Configuring Your PC, you are
ready to connect to and configure the Advance DataNET Hub.
Getting Started
… read through this Chapter prior to performing any procedures.
The DNH consists of two identical hubs in one enclosure. The left side is
referred to as the DataNET ‘A’ half and the right side the DataNET ‘B’
half. Each half hub contains a communication board and a RS232
Configuration Port. Each hub half is configured separately.
IMPORTANT
HUB ‘A’
HUB ‘B’
Before You Begin
1. Ensure that the DNH Ethernet connection is not connected to the
network by removing the RJ-45 plug from the Ethernet port located
on the edge of the Communications board.
2. Connect a standard 9-pin COM cable from the designated PC COM
port (see page
49, step 7.) to RS232 Configuration Port located on
etiher Hub ‘A’ or ‘B’.
3. Turn on the AC power to the DNH.
Password Protection
All utility programs on the DNH Communication board are password
protected. This insures the data integrity of all configuration data and
limits unwanted access of the User’s network. To access any of the
programs you must have a logon password.
