3.1 Selecting the Ethernet Type
You can connect the system unit to either a ThinWire Ethernet or a standard
Ethernet network. Before starting to connect the system unit to the network,
ask the network coordinator to tell you which network type to use with the
system.
The system unit has a network select switch that you must set depending on
which Ethernet type you want to use. When you know which Ethernet type
you want to use, set the network select switch as follows:
1. Set the system unit on/off switch to the off (O) position.
2. Set the network select switch to the correct position:
•
If you are using ThinWire Ethernet, slide the network select switch to
the right-hand position (see Figure 3–1).
•
If you are using standard Ethernet, slide the network select switch to
the left-hand position (see Figure 3–1).
Go to Section 3.4 if you are connecting the system to a standard Ethernet
network.
