Networked connection

You can use an Ethernet cable to connect the CMM to a management network.

To connect an Ethernet cable to the CMM for management network connection, complete the following steps:

  1. Connect one end of a Category 5 or higher Ethernet cable to the Ethernet connector of the CMM.
  2. Connect the other end of the Ethernet cable to the management network.
  3. Check the Ethernet LEDs on the CMM to make sure that the network connection is working. (See CMM controls and indicators for Ethernet LED locations.)
    • When the green Ethernet port link LED is lit, there is an active connection through the port to the network.
    • When the green Ethernet port active LED is flashing, it indicates that there is activity through the port over the network link.
