Step 2. Switch on Your GPIB-ENET
Power on your GPIB-ENET. The POWER LED should come on immediately. The
READY LED should flash while it completes its power-on self tests. When all the tests
complete successfully and the IP address is assigned, from either nonvolatile memory or
the network, the READY LED remains steady, indicating that the unit is ready to
operate.
If the POWER LED does not come on immediately or the READY LED continues to
flash after the IP address should have been assigned, recheck all connections and switch
settings, and retry the power-on sequence. If the READY LED still does not become
steady after the IP address should have been assigned, refer to Appendix C, Customer
Communication, fill out the technical support and configuration forms, and contact
National Instruments for technical support.
When the READY LED remains steady, continue with Chapter 3, Software Installation
and Configuration.
