This cable plugs into the Ethernet port of your computer. Plug the other end into any
of the Ethernet ports on the Eicon 1550/1551. It does not matter which Ethernet port
you use.
Once connected, the Ethernet status light for the connected port should light up,
indicating that the Ethernet cable is connected properly.

Verify your TCP/IP settings, if required.
TCP/IP for your Ethernet card should be configured to acquire its IP address from
a DHCP server.
Ethernet cards are normally set this way by default. See
on page 35 for details on how to do this, or consult the help included with
your operating system.
