Installation and Setup

LEDs on LAN 10/100 (Ethernet) RJ-45 Connector

NetLinx LED - Active connection

Yellow LED - Speed Status

Green LED - L/A (link/Activity) Status

FIG. 18 LAN 10/100 port LEDs

The LAN 10/100 port is an Ethernet link connector, handling Ethernet 10/100 connections for 100 Mbps (megabits per second) and 10 Mbps. (This connection is compatible with most Ethernet based LANs.)

The two small rectangular LEDs on the LAN 10/100 connector indicate the following. Yellow Speed Status LED:

ON – Speed status is 100 Mbps Off – Speed status is 10 Mbps

Green L/A (Link/Activity) Status LED:

ON – Link status is active (when Ethernet cables are connected and terminated correctly); blinks when receiving Ethernet data packets

Off – Link status is not active

Note: When the connection is made, the DHCP server on the network will automatically assign an IP address. If you power down and power back up, the DHCP server will reassign the IP address, which may or may not be the same address it assigned before. To prevent the possibility of the IP address changing at power up, you can change the DHCP IP address to a static IP address (see page 75).

System Setup for a LAN Connection

Important: The HDMI-UTPro uses DHCP by default.

The system setup example below illustrates an HDMI UTPro connected to a LAN. Both computers in the illustration have access to the enclosure, as does the NetLinx Controller.

Tip: The directions on the following page assume that you are connecting the HDMI UTPro to an active LAN (network) that utilizes DHCP. If not, see the “Workaround” below the instructions first.
