channel, and then click Connect.

You can use the U20 USB Network Interface included with the PL 3150/PL 3170

EVB, or you can use another network interface such as a i.LON 10 Ethernet Adaptor,

i.LON 100 e3 plus Internet Server, or i.LON SmartServer. If you are using the U20
USB Network Interface included with the PL 3150/PL 3170 EVB and you have not

installed any other network interfaces on your computer, select LON1.

For more information on installing and configuring the U20 USB Network Interface,

and on using it to attach your computer to a network channel, see the L

USB Network Interface User’s Guide.
Note: Only one application can use a network interface at a time; therefore, if you

connect the Mini FX Application to a network interface, you cannot use that network
interface with other applications. You must exit the Mini FX Application to make a

connected network interface available to other applications. Multiple LNS

applications can share a network interface, but they cannot share a network
interface with applications that are not based on the LNS network operating system

such as the Mini kit.

6. Press the Service button on the PL 3150/PL 3170 EVB. The Service button on the PL

3150/PL 3170 EVB is a black button that is located near the lower right-hand corner

of the board and is labeled “SERVICE.”

7. The Service Pin Message dialog opens. The Neuron ID of the PL 3150/PL 3170

EVB appears in the Neuron ID box and its program ID in the Program ID box.
