Connecting the E2 Module to an LX Platform Device:

Using the included USB cable, plug the USB-A connector into the LX Platform device's USB-A receptacle
(refer to the device documentation to find the appropriate port). Then plug the cable's USB Micro-B connector
into the E2 module's USB Micro-B port.
Note: Up to three E2 modules can be daisy-chained together by connecting the USB-A port of the first module to the USB
Micro-B port of the second, then connecting the USB-A port to the USB Micro-B port of the third module. The module will
perform optimally in a properly ventilated environment.

The E2 module will appear as 'SensorXXXX' in the PowerAlert Device Manager, where XXXX are the last four digits of the E2's serial number. To view the E2, go to
Overview and select the module from the Device dropdown menu.
