Network Connection
Connect a CAT 5 RJ45 cable to the primary LAN port on the rear of the unit. If
the other end of the cable is connected to a hub or switch, it must be straight
through. If it is connected directly to a NIC card on the server, the cable must be
a crossover.
LED2 indicates the Ethernet Link signal and LED1 displays the Receive Data
signal.
Dual Network Connection
If a dual network connection is required, perform the following steps:
1. Install a STAR-PCC-NIC card in one of the PCMCIA slots.
2. Run a straight through CAT-5 RJ-45 patch cable from the inside of the
second RJ-45 connector to the PCMCIA card.
3. Connect both RJ-45 connectors on the rear panel to network connections.

LED1 – displays the Receive Data signal on P6.
LCD Panel
The LCD panel will display various status information, such as the connection
status to the host, and various diagnostic functions.
