When testing a WaveBook or DaqBook device, if the unit does not respond within
30 seconds perform the following steps:
1) reboot the system
2) upon power-up, re-open the Daq* Configuration applet
3) select another configuration setting
4) reinitiate the test
This completes the procedure for connecting a DaqBook/2000E or WaveBook/516E to the Ethernet. At this
point you should refer to other sections of the manual, e.g., pinouts, information on system expansion, and
data acquisition.
