1 Press the RESET/ENCRYPT button at the side of your PLA for 2 to 5 seconds. The power ( ) light will blink
as the PLA tries to set up a connection with a new random domain name.
Figure 3 ENCRYPT Connection Procedure
Note: Check the lights on the two PLAs. The power ( ) and Powerline ( ) lights should be
on while the devices are connecting. Wait for about two minutes while your
PLAs
connect.
If the power ( ) light does not blink when you press RESET/ENCRYPT, you have probably pressed
the RESET/ENCRYPT button for too long. Try again pressing the RESET/ENCRYPT button for 2 to 5
seconds.
If the Powerline ( ) lights on both PLAs do not light up, the PLAs are not connected. Repeat step
1 in this section. If that does not work, see the Troubleshooting in Section 5.4 on page 36 for
suggestions.
2 To add more PLAs to your network, use any PLA (A or B) you have connected to set up a connection
with the PLAs you want to connect (C and D).
3 Press the RESET/ENCRYPT button on both PLAs (A and C, or B and C) for 2 to 5 seconds to add PLA C. This
must be done within 2 minutes (120 seconds) of pressing the RESET/ENCRYPT button on the PLA.
4 Press the RESET/ENCRYPT button on both PLAs (A and D, B and D or C and D) for 2 to 5 seconds to add
