The following steps provide an overview of the hardware installation. You can refer to the DeviceMaster Installation and Configuration Guide (Rev F) for detailed hardware installation procedures for your model.

Record the MAC address, model number, and serial number of the DeviceMaster PRO.
If necessary, mount the DeviceMaster PRO.

If needed, a Rack Mount Shelf Installation document is available.
Connect the DeviceMaster PRO to the same Ethernet network segment as the host PC using a standard network cable.
Apply power to the DeviceMaster PRO.
- 8-Port: Connect the AC power adapter to the DeviceMaster PRO, connect the appropriate power cord for your location to the power adapter, and plug the power cord into a power source.
- 16-Port: Connect the appropriate power cord for your location into the DeviceMaster PRO and then plug the power cord into a power source.

Verify that the PWR or Power LED has completed the boot cycle and network connection for the DeviceMaster PRO is functioning properly using the following table.

LED	Description
PWR The PWR or Power LED is on the reverse side from the serial connectors.	If lit, the PWR or Power LED indicates the DeviceMaster PRO has power and completed the boot cycle. The PWR or Power LED flashes while booting and it takes approximately 15 seconds for the Bootloader to complete the cycle. When the Bootloader completes the cycle, the LED has a solid, steady light that blinks approximately every 10 seconds.
LNK/ACT (UP/DOWN)	If the LNK/ACT LED is lit, it indicates a working Ethernet connection.
COL	If the red COL LED is lit, there is a network collision.
100	If the 100 LED is lit, it indicates a working 100 MB Ethernet connection (100 MB network, only). If the LED is not lit, it indicates a 10 MB Ethernet connection.
RX/TX	The RX (yellow) and TX (green) LEDs function accordingly when the cable is attached properly to a serial device. After power cycling the DeviceMaster PRO, RX/TX LEDs are off. The LEDs do not function as described until the port has been opened by an application. You can use Test Terminal or minicom to open a port or ports if you want to test a port or ports. If the port is configured for RS-232/422 mode: RX LEDs (yellow) are lit TX LEDs (green) are lit when as the data exits the port If the port is configured for RS-485 mode: RX LEDs (yellow) are lit while receiving TX LEDs (green) are lit during active data transmission

Configure the DeviceMaster PRO IP address.
