HARDWARE INSTALLATION
Using a PLC bridge:
NOTE: A PLC bridge uses the power line to communicate and requires
both a “send” and “receive” unit.
1. Make sure the CAT5 cable is connected to the network port on the
bottom of the ECU.
2. Connect the CAT5 cable into the “send” unit of the PLC bridge.
3. Connect a CAT5 cable from the “receive” unit of the PLC bridge
into a spare port on the broadband router (refer to bridge users
manual for specic operating instructions).
POWER UP ECU
1. Make sure the power cable is correctly connected to the power
connection port on the bottom of the ECU.
2. Plug the power cable into a dedicated standard AC electrical outlet.
WARNING: Make sure to use a dedicated outlet for the ECU. Do NOT
plug any other devices into the same outlet as the ECU.
WARNING: Do NOT plug the ECU into a power strip, surge protector,
or uninterruptable power supply (UPS). The surge suppression and/
or ltering on these sorts of devices will substantially diminish PLC
performance.
