Connecting to an Ethernet LAN
Connect AN-LS1 to a hub or a computer using a Category 5 cable.
• It is necessary to perform computer setting according to the network environment in advance.
• Default IP address and subnet mask of AN-LS1 are as follows:
IP address : 192.168.150.2
Subnet mask : 255.255.255.0
• When using AN-LS1 by connecting to an existing Ethernet LAN, and if there is any problem with
the above settings, change settings such as IP address by creating an independent network
without connecting to the existing Ethernet LAN or by connecting a computer to the RS-232C
(CONTROLLER) terminal.
After that, connect to the existing Ethernet LAN.

Connecting to a Hub or Switch
For most applications, you will simply plug one end of your Category 5 cable into the10BASE-T
terminal of AN-LS1. In this case, you should use a standard straight-through Category 5 cable, which
is readily available from many commercial vendors. If necessary, however, you can make your own
cable by referring to the following cable wiring diagram.

Connecting to a Computer
In some cases, such as when configuring drivers and software, you will find it convenient to hook AN-
LS1 directly to your computer’s Ethernet terminal. To do this, you will need to use a cross-over Category
5 cable. This type of Category 5 cable is harder to find, although you can make your own cable by
referring to the following cable wiring diagram.
