Linking two Main Stations with Ethernet

1)

Insert an HLI-ET2 Ethernet interface module in each station. Use any of the three
slots available.

Note:

Ensure that the Main Station is powered down before inserting
modules
.

2)

Connect a regular Ethernet cable (for example, CAT5, CAT5e, CAT6, CAT6e) from
one HLI-ET2 port on one station to one HLI-ET2 port on the other station.

3)

Power up both stations. Verify that the green LED on each HLI-ET2 port is flashing.

4)

Go to Networking->Stations menu on each station. You should see two entries on
each screen indicating that each station properly sees itself and the other station.

5)

Go to Networking->Linking->Link Station menu on each station and select
Enabled. You now have an 8 channel system and can start assigning channels to
Main Stations and Beltpacks.

Note:

You should see a Link icon

on the Main Station display.
