Section 5 : Advance Features - How to use the Push Buttons
5.1 Pair( Secure with 128 bits-AES)
The Powerline AV standard uses 128-bit AES (Advanced Encryption Standard) to safely transmit data
between powerline adaptors. For the powerline adaptors to communicate with each other they all need to
use the same Network Membership Key (NMK). Otherwise, they cannot unscramble the encrypted data
sent in the powerline network.
The Pair button allows you to set up a secure powerline connection with other HomePlug AV compliant
powerline devices which also support the Pair feature.
5.2 Set Up a Powerline Network with the Pair button
You can connect a number of devices on a powerline network, but you can use the Pair button on only two
devices at a time.
Device A want to form a network group with another device B：
Step 1: Hold the Pair button of device A for 2 seconds, the Power LED will start blinking.
Step 2: Hold the Pair button of device B for 2 seconds, the Power LED will start blinking
Step 3: Wait for the Power LED of both devices to light up then you will now have both devices being in
the same network group.
