Leave your computer on during installation.

1.Connect the power adapter.

When connected, the Power indicator light (on the front of the device) should turn on.

2.Connect your VHSI cable.

Connect the appropriate end of the cable to the VHSI port of the Eicon 1550/1551, then connect the other end to your modem or leased line connector.

Note: VHSI cables are not included with your Eicon 1550/1551. Cables can be ordered from Eicon Networks, or you can build your own (see the User’s Guide).

3.Connect the blue Ethernet cable.

This cable plugs into the Ethernet port of your computer. Plug the other end into your any of the Ethernet ports on the Eicon 1550/1551. It does not matter which Ethernet port you use.

Once connected, the Ethernet status light for the connected port should light up, indicating that the Ethernet cable is connected properly.

4.Verify your TCP/IP settings, if required.

TCP/IP for your Ethernet card should be configured to acquire its IP address from a DHCP server automatically.

Ethernet cards are normally set this way by default. See the ‘TCP/IP Settings’ section in the User’s Guide for details on how to do this, or consult the help included with your operating system.

5.Restart your computer. This forces your computer to acquire a new IP address from the Eicon 1550/1551.

6.To continue, see ‘Step 2: Access the Configuration Pages’ on page 4.
