Installing the EtherFast Network
Attached Storage
Note: Make sure the TCP/IP protocol has been configured on your network
PCs before installing the GigaDrive.
A. Determine if the GigaDrive will be installed onto a network backbone or
directly to a PC. If you are connecting the GigaDrive to a PC, press the
Uplink button located on the Instant GigaDrive's rear panel. If you are
connecting the GigaDrive to a hub or switch, the Uplink button should not
be pressed in. If it is pressed in, press the button once to release it.
B. Connect the supplied Ethernet network cable to the GigaDrive's LAN
port. Connect the other end of the cable to your hub, switch, or PC.
C. If you are NOT connecting a printer to the GigaDrive, proceed to step D.
If you are connecting a printer to the GigaDrive, connect a standard print-
er cable to the GigaDrive's printer port on the back panel. Connect the
other end of the cable to your printer.
D. Plug the supplied power cord into the GigaDrive's power port on the back
panel. Connect the other end of the power cord to an electrical outlet.
E. To power on the GigaDrive, press its power switch, which is located on
the GigaDrive's back panel. If you attached a network printer to the
GigaDrive, then power on the network printer.
F. When the GigaDrive's Ready LED is solidly lit and the other LEDs are
not lit, the GigaDrive's boot-up is complete. If the Error LED is flashing,
and
or if the GigaDrive repeatedly beeps, there is a hardware problem. Review
the Beep Codes section in the User Guide for possible solutions.
