1. Check the network connections <strong>and</strong> make adjustments as needed. The Link<br />

LED is solid green if a network connection is detected. The yellow ACT LED<br />

blinks if there is activity on the network. If these LEDs are not lit, either the<br />

cable is faulty or not plugged in, or the wrong type of cable is being used<br />

(refer to “Connecting the Hardware,” in chapter 2, “Installation <strong>and</strong> Rear<br />

Panel”).<br />

2. At the DOS comm<strong>and</strong> prompt, try to ping the unit by entering ping <strong>and</strong> the<br />

IP address assigned to your PC1. (See “Setting up <strong>and</strong> configuring the PC<br />

communicating, you receive the following response to your ping comm<strong>and</strong>:<br />

Successful ping comm<strong>and</strong> response<br />

If a connection was not made, the following response appears:<br />

Response to an unsuccessful ping comm<strong>and</strong><br />

If you get a response indicating that the ping was unsuccessful,<br />

b. Make sure your PC does not have a software firewall program which<br />

might block the IP address of the unit.<br />
