When installing the network cable, please note that a crosso-
ver cable (included in the scope of delivery) is required for 
direct communication between the Powador-proLOG unit and 
a PC. However, if you intend to set up a large network and 
want to connect the Powador-proLOG unit to a PC or router 
via a switch or hub, you need to use a patch cable instead. 
The following fi gures illustrate the differences between the 
two Ethernet cables.

Difference between patch cable and crossover cable
To identify the cable type, simply hold both ends of the cable 
out in front of you. The RJ45 connector heads on the patch 
cables are identical. The connector heads on the crossover 
cables are different. 
Use this connection to power 
external sensors using the 
unit's internal power supply 
(max. 230 mA). The socket 
is located between the ana-
logue/ISDN modem and the 
Ethernet interface.
