Using the Ethernet ports

The startup configuration of the RMC requires first-time local communication. Establish a connection
between a PC or laptop and the device over Ethernet after installation and power-on sequence is
complete.
The Ethernet ports auto-configure to adapt to the Ethernet cable type.
specifications for Ethernet ports.

Local TCP/IP communication over Ethernet requires correct IP configuration and addressing. The RMC
Ethernet factory default configuration supports initial connection with pre-configured IP parameters for
convenience.
The RMC is configured as a 2-port Ethernet switch from the factory.
Ethernet mode as viewed from PCCU. Ethernet is configured in 1 Network mode, therefore devices
connected to either port communicate on the same subnet. A single default IP address (169.254.0.11)
is ready for initial local communication using either of the 2 ports. To use either port, set the Ethernet
State to Enable.
