Hardware Installation
System requirements
Before installing the device, please ensure that the following items are ready:
•At least one Ethernet RJ45 cable (10Base-T/100Base-T)
•One PLC wireless adapter
•One PLC passthrough adapter for PLC communication
•A PC that is installed with the TCP/IP protocol and can access the Internet.
Before You Begin
Before you install the device, please pay attention to the following items:
•When the device is connected to a computer, hub, router, or switch, the Ethernet cable should be shorter than 100 meters.
•Place this device on a stable surface or support. Do not put this device on the ground.
•Keep the device clean. Keep away the device from direct sunshine. Avoid any metal in the device.
•Place the device in the centre of the placement area, and try to optimise the wireless coverage.
Connecting the Device
To connect the device, do as follows:
Downloaded from www.vandenborre.be
7
Step 1 Connect one end of the RJ45 cable to the LAN interface of the PLC wireless adapter.
Step 2 Connect the other end of the RJ45 cable to your PC.
Step 3 Insert the power plug of the device into the wall socket directly.
Operation Range
The operation range of the PLC wireless adapter depends on the actual environment. The path and effect of signal transmission
may vary with the deployment in a house or an office. In theory, the maximum PLC transmission distance can reach 300 metres.
But for the practical application, the PLC transmission distance may vary due to the number of PLC devices connected to the
power line network. For wireless transmission, straight transmission distance in the open air for some devices can reach 300
meters and indoor transmission distance can reach 100 meters.
Improving the Transmission Performance of Network
In order to improve the transmission performance of network, it is recommended that you insert the power plug of the device
into the wall socket directly. Do not use the patch board.
CONFIGURING THE LAN PC
By default, the DHCP server is enabled. The LAN IP address of the PLC wireless adapter is 192.168.1.1 and the subnet mask is
255.255.255.0.
Note:
The configuration steps and figures on Windows XP are depicted as an example. The configuration process may vary
depending on operation system of your PC.
To manually set the network adapter on a Windows XP PC, do as follows:
Step 1 Right-click the icon of My Network Places and choose Properties from the menu. The Network Connections window
appears.

Step 2 Right-click the network adapter icon and choose Properties from the menu. The Local Area Connections Properties
window appears.
Note:
If multiple network cards are installed on your PC, a window other than the Local Area Connections Properties window may
appears.
Step 3 Double-click Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) and the Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) Properties window appears.
Step 4 Select Use the following IP address and enter the IP address of the network adapter. Set the IP address to 192.168. 1 .X
(‘X’ is a number in the range of 2 to 254) and set the subnet mask to 255.255.255.0. Configure the default gateway and
IP addresses of the DNS servers according to your actual network, or leave them blank. After setting the parameters,
click OK.

Step 5 Ping the default IP address of the PLC wireless adapter, to check whether the current connection between your PC and
the PLC wireless adapter is normal. Choose Start > Run from the desktop and enter ping 192.168.1.1. See the following
figure:
Note:
192.168.1.1 in the ping command is the default IP address of the LAN interface. If the IP address changes, enter the current IP
address instead.
Step 6 If your PC can ping through the default IP address of the PLC wireless adapter, the following page appears, indicating
that the connection between your PC and the PLC wireless adapter is normal:
