You have two options for connecting the PT-Link II to your PC via
Ethernet:
1.) You may connect the PT-Link II directly to your PC by
using a standard CAT5 or crossover cable (by others) as
shown. See Figure 4 for details.
2.) You can also connect both your PC and the PT-Link II to
an Ethernet Hub or Ethernet Switch with standard CAT5
cables. See Figure 5 for details.
Locate a CAT5 cable and plug one end into your computer’s Ethernet port.
If connecting directly, plug the other end of the Cable into the Ethernet
port on the PT-Link II. If connecting through an Ethernet Hub or Switch,
plug the other end of the PC cable into the hub, and use a second CAT5
cable to connect the PT-Link II to the hub as well.
Power up the PT-Link II by plugging in the power cable. The PT-Link
II may take up to three minutes to power up completely. Once the PT-
Link II is powered up, you should notice that the RUN LED is blinking
continuously on the ProtoCessor Board. See Figure 28, page 23 for a
diagram showing the location of the ProtoCessor RUN LED.
