INSTALLATION

Connecting the Daisy-Chain Cable:

5.Begin with BANK 00. Using the Daisy-Chain Cable (F1D9402-XX), connect one end to the “Daisy-Chain OUT” port on the first Switch.

6.Connect the other end of the Daisy-Chain Cable to the “Daisy-Chain IN” port of the next Switch.

Note: It does not matter which unit is the primary unit, only that they are connected OUT-to-IN or IN-to-OUT.

Adding Additional Units:

7.Continuing in the same manner, using the Daisy-Chain Cable (F1D9402-XX), connect “Daisy-Chain OUT” to “Daisy-Chain IN” on all subsequent units.

CAUTION: Never connect “Daisy-Chain IN” to “Daisy-Chain IN” or “Daisy-Chain OUT” to “Daisy Chain OUT”. This may produce unpredictable results.

Example of Daisy-Chain Configuration

Connecting the Computers:

8.Power on the Switches, in any order. You will see the port LEDs flash on and off and the seven-segment LEDs will light up, displaying a series of diagnostic codes, eventually stopping with the digits “XX”, where XX is its BANK address.

Note: If the Switches still do not enumerate with their corresponding BANK address, check that all Switches have the correct BANK address assigned to them and that all daisy-chain cables are connected properly.
