6 How to Use the Security Pushbutton
This section describes how to add new devices to, or remove old devices from a
HomePlug AV logical network (AVLN). Both can be accomplished by using a
Security (NMK) pushbutton.
Operation progress and outcome can be monitored by observing the behavior of the
power LED.
6.1 Forming a HomePlug AV Logical Network
When two devices with different NMK values are connected to the same power line,
the user wants them to form a logical network. Do as follows:
Step1 Press the NMK button on the first device A for less than 3 seconds.
Step2 Press the NMK button on the second device B for less than 3 seconds. The
button on B must be pressed within 1 minute
Step3 Wait for connection to complete.
The power LEDs on both devices will flash evenly at 1-second intervals until the
operation succeeds or fails. They will illuminate steadily on successful completion. If
an error occurs, the power LED on the ‘adder’ will flash unevenly until the pushbutton
on the ‘adder’ is pressed again or the ‘joiner’ is reset by holding the pushbuttons
down for more than 10 seconds.
