Hardware Installation
Use the following procedure to install the DeviceMaster UP 16-port with an
external power supply.
1. Place the DeviceMaster UP on a stable surface.
Note: Do not connect multiple units until you have changed the default IP
address, see Initial Configuration on Page 35.
2. Connect the DeviceMaster UP to the same Ethernet network segment as the
host PC using either port labeled 10/100 using a standard Ethernet cable.
Do not connect RS-422/485 devices until the appropriate port interface
type has been configured. The default port setting is RS-232.
3. Apply power to the DeviceMaster UP by connecting the AC power adapter to
the DeviceMaster UP, the power cord to the power adapter, and plugging the
power cord into a power source. See
External Power Supply Specifications on
Page 49 if you want to provide your own power supply.
4. Verify that the STAT LED has completed the boot cycle and network
connection for the DeviceMaster UP is functioning properly.
Note: The RX/TX LEDs cycle during a reboot.
• STAT (Status LED) - If the Status LED on the DeviceMaster LT is lit, it
indicates the DeviceMaster LT has power and it has completed the boot
cycle.
The STAT LED flashes while booting and it takes approximately 15 seconds
for the Bootloader to complete the cycle. When the Bootloader completes
the cycle, the LED has a solid, steady light that blinks approximately every
10 seconds.
• Ethernet LEDs - The green LED indicates that a link has been established
and the yellow LED indicates activity.
5. Go to Initial Configuration on Page 35 for default network settings and how to
configure the DeviceMaster UP for use.
