1.3.1 Setting Up the Base Station (cont.)
• To power the Base Station, insert the round barrel connector into the power input jack
of the Base Station (the input at the left shown in Figure 5 on the previous page).
Attach the power supply to the power cord.Then insert the power cord into a standard
100-240 VAC outlet. A green light next to the power outlet on the Base Station
indicates that the station is powered up.
IMPORTANT: The external power supply included with your RF ValProbe is fitted with an
AC power cord suitable for the country
of destination.
• To establish a USB connection, plug one end of the USB cable into the USB outlet in
the center of the rear shown in Figure 5 on the previous page, and plug the other end
into the USB port of your computer.
• To establish an Ethernet connection, plug one end of your Ethernet cable into the
outlet at the right of the rear panel shown in Figure 5 on the previous page. Then plug
the other end into your Ethernet connection.
• To establish a connection using the adapter, connect the crossover cable to the
USB-Ethernet adapter. Plug the crossover cable to the outlet at the right of the rear
panel shown in Figure 5 on the previous page. Then plug the adapter to the USB port
on your PC.
Once you have attached the connection and set up the loggers (see the next page), start the
RF ValProbe software and click the Preferences tab. The Preferences window opens
(Figure 16 on page 37). Follow the directions from page 36 to page 48 to set up your Base
Station settings.
IMPORTANT: You can only be connected via either USB or Ethernet -- not both. If you
want to establish an Ethernet connection, first connect your Base Station
via USB, and then switch your connection to the Ethernet, as discussed on
page 40.
