LAN with no DHCP Server
(Local Area Network with no Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol server)
This scenario looks the same as that shown in the previous illustration, except there is no Dynamic Host
Configuration Protocol (DHCP). In this type of setup, one or more computers are connected to a network;
and each computer has a static IP address.
STEP 3 – Connect the System Components
Reference Note:
For examples of ZonicBook/618E system connections, including cable use, refer to Chapter 3,
Connectors and Indicators and Chapter 11, System Expansion.
What you will need to connect a ZonicBook/618E to the Ethernet:
An available connection to the Ethernet. The connection can be either
- an Ethernet jack on a computer or
- an Ethernet jack on a hub that is connected to the Ethernet.
An Ethernet patch cable, e.g., a CA-242 (1.5 foot cable) or a CA-242-7 (7-foot cable).
1. Connect the Ethernet cable to the Ethernet jack on the ZonicBook/618E.
2. Connect the other end of the Ethernet cable to the Ethernet jack on the host computer or
network hub.

Power-up the System Components
When powering up a ZonicBook/618E system it is important that the ZonicBook/618E is powered
last, and that the most remote system components are powered first. Other power-up sequences
will result in software’s failure to recognize all components.
*
First, power-on the WBK18 expansion modules, if applicable.
Second, power-on the ZonicBook/618E.
* An exception to this power-up scheme is to power-on the entire system at once.
What you will need:
A power supply with a range of +10 VDC to +30 VDC.
The power supply needs to have a male DIN5 connector.
Note: The switching-mode power supply that is commonly used with these systems has an input
range of 100 VAC to 240 VAC at 50 Hz to 60 Hz. The power supply’s output [to the
device] is typically 15 VDC @ 3.33 amps via a DIN5 connector.
Note: Various AC adapter models support power grids of USA, Europe, Japan, and Asia.
Reference Note:
It is likely that you will use a TR-40 AC power adapter with your ZonicBook/618E and a separate TR-
40U for each WBK18 expansion module, if applicable. Appendix C, Power Options discusses
additional power supplies that may be used in place of the TR-40U.
