3. Connect the 10-pin female plug of the flexible, PCB-shielded cable labeled

“BLASTER SIDE” to the 10-pin female target port on the Ethernet communications
cable and the 10-pin female plug of the cable labeled “TARGET SIDE” to the
10-pin male header on the target circuit board (

Figure 1–3

).

4. Plug the supplied 12.0-VDC wall transformer into a power outlet and then into the

EthernetBlaster II communications cable.

1

Always connect the network patch cable as instructed in Step

2

before

connecting the power cord. This allows the EthernetBlaster II
communications cable to obtain a DHCP address (if your network is
configured to do so). Wait until the status LED emits a steady green light
before completing the next steps.

5. Reconnect the power cable to the target circuit board to reapply power.

6. If your network supports DHCP, see Step

7

for configuration instructions. If your

network does not support DHCP, see Step

1

(

“Using the Network with Default

Factory Settings if Your Network does not Support DHCP” on page 1–6

) for

configuration instructions.
