•Insert the adaptor’s USB connector into the Host USB port on the 8515.

•Connect your network Ethernet cable to the Ethernet port on the adaptor cable.

6.3.1Network Access

The 8515 automatically loads the appropriate drivers to communicate with the USB-Ether- net converters.

Network Addressing

The host application uses standard TCP/IP protocol to name, locate, and communicate with a specific 8515 on the network.

If a link is established between an 8515 and a host, the application on the host and on the vehicle-mount must have a recovery mechanism in the event that the 8515 is disconnected, interrupting the link.
