Normal LED Flash Pattern
Immediately after power-up, both COM LEDs should display
steady green for several seconds. Then both COM LEDs should
flash simultaneously three times. This sequence of flashes should
be followed by first COM1 flashing once and then COM2 flashing
once, repeated three times in succession. If as problem with the
device is detected during this time, the LED flashes will display
an error pattern (see Appendix A: Troubleshooting for more in-
formation on POST error indications). If no errors are detected,
the internet server will begin operating normally.
Connecting to the Local Network
This section describes how to connect the DP-692 internet server
to your Ethernet network.
Cables
•
The EIA/TIA 568 Wiring Standard imposes a 100 me-
ter limit on horizontal runs of twisted-pair cables; in
this case, from the internet server to any other device.
•
10 Mbps Ethernet connections must use Category 3 or
better twisted-pair cabling fitted with RJ-45 connec-
tors.
•
Cat 5 UTP cables use the same RJ-45 connector used
with 10BASE-T, wired in the same configuration.
Connecting to a Twisted-Pair LAN
As mentioned before, the internet server comes equipped with ten
Ethernet RJ-45 LAN ports. Together, these twisted-pair ports
function as a normal Ethernet hub. To connect the internet server
to an existing 10BASE-T LAN, simply plug one end of a straight-
