physiCal setup without router
In order to operate a SIM 3 machine remotely without using a wireless router connect the computer to the SIM machine
with a CAT5 or better cable. Modern computers automatically apply an internal crossover when necessary – if using an
older computer please use a crossover cable.
1. Power up the SIM 3 machine and immediately insert the Software CD (See page 4) into the CD drive of the SIM 3
machine. This must be done the moment the SIM 3 is turned on.
If the SIM 3 boots up as usual then the CD was introduced too late. This is not a problem. Just power down the SIM 3
down (by holding the power button) without removing the CD. The next time it powers up it will automatically boot from
the CD drive.
2. The SIM 3 machine will boot and present a terminal window in the upper left corner of the display (if a monitor is
attached to the SIM 3 machine).
When setting the computer’s Ethernet adaptor properties please make sure you set the following values:
