2.3 Installation
The CMR-5940 is designed for ease of installation and configuration. Once the unit
has been removed from the packing container, follow these instructions:
Step Procedure
1 Place the CMR-5940 on a flat surface with free-air flow where the LEDs can be
clearly observed with unrestricted access to the rear panel of the unit.
2 Connect the DC power connection to the connection labeled PWR on the back
of the unit and tighten the restraining nut to ensure secure operation.
3 Connect an RJ-45 Ethernet cable (patch cord) to the port labeled ETHERNET.
This cable should be connected to an Ethernet concentrator (hub) or switch.
4 Connect a terminal cable (supplied) to the port labeled TERM. This cable should
be connected to a PC’s serial port (DB-9) to initially configure the CMR-5940.
5 Connect the AC power cord between a standard wall outlet and the power
supply. The blue LED will illuminate.
