2.2.1 Communications Methods
Ethernet Communications
Connect the eDAQ

Ethernet connection for communications between the eDAQ
lite
and the support PC.
A 100BASE-T compatible Ethernet card must be installed in the support PC.
In some cases, it may be helpful to change the Ethernet link mode:
To change the Ethernet link mode:
