4 dLAN pro network
Before you can use the dLAN pro 1200 DINrail in your
dLAN pro network, first you have to connect it to other
dLAN pro devices as a home network. Two specific
pieces of information are especially important for this:
쎲 Shared use of the dLAN password serves as access
control and results in a delimited dLAN pro net-
work.
쎲 Shared use of a dLAN password serves as encryp-
tion of the dLAN pro network, and thereby the
interception protection, of the transmitted data.
The dLAN password can be specified automatically via
the encryption button or manually using the
dLAN AVpro manager program. Please note the fol-
lowing basic principle when choosing your encryption
method:
쎲 In dLAN pro networks, data encryption is as sim-
ple as touching a button, since all corresponding
dLAN pro devices are equipped with an encryp-
tion button.
쎲 For dLAN pro networks that include devices with
and without encryption buttons, data encryption
must be set up using the dLAN AVpro manager.
4.1 dLAN pro network encryption
at the touch of a button
To encrypt a dLAN pro network, in which all associated
devices are equipped with an encryption button, simply
press the encryption button that is located on the de-
vice. Pressing this button will encrypt your dLAN pro
network with a randomly generated password.
For security reasons, the function of
the security button in the
dLAN AVpro manager can be disa-
bled.
The following section contains exact instructions of en-
cryption on the basis of possible network scenarios:
dLAN pro devices cannot be config-
ured while in Standby mode.
