Connecting the NPC-1 to a network
There are two ways to use the 10/100BaseT Ethernet jack located on NPC-1’s front
panel:
1. For most applications using NPC-1, you will simply plug one end of an Ethernet cable
(RJ45) into NPC-1’s 100BaseT jack, and plug the other end into a hub connected to
your network. In this case, use a regular
straight-through
Ethernet cable.
2. In some cases, you may connect NPC-1 directly to your computer’s Ethernet card. To
do this you will need to use a
cross-over
Ethernet cable.
The orange/green link light will flicker when NPC-1 is properly connected to a live
Ethernet.
LED Indicators
NPC-1’s top panel contains three LED indicators, as described in the following list.
