Figure 9 ENCRYPT Connection Procedure
Note: The ENCRYPT button’s location varies for each Powerline model.
5 Repeat step 4 in this section for the other powerline device you wish to connect.
This must be done within 120 seconds of pressing the ENCRYPT button on the
PLA-401 v3.
6 Check the lights on the two powerline devices. The power ( ) and HomePlug
( ) lights should be blinking while the devices are connecting. Several times all
lights blink simultaneously and the HomePlug ( ) light also shows red. Wait for
about one minute while your powerline devices connect.
If the power ( ) light does not blink when you press ENCRYPT, you have
probably pressed the ENCRYPT button for too long. Try again, pressing the
ENCRYPT button for 1~ 2 seconds.
If the HomePlug ( ) lights on both powerline devices do not light up, the
powerline devices are not connected. Repeat steps 4 and 5 in this section. If
that doesn’t work, see the Troubleshooting in Section 8.5 on page 76 for
suggestions.
7 To add more powerline devices to your network, press the ENCRYPT button on
device C (shown below) for more than 10 seconds until the power ( ) light
