Program Port and LAN 100/1000 Port
Since the Program port and the LAN 100/1000 port are used in conjunction with each other for NetLinx
system setup, information for cable requirements, LEDs, etc. on each port is given before the setup
information.
Program Port
The Enova DGX Switcher’s integrated NetLinx Master is equipped with a low-speed USB connection
labeled “Program.” Use the provided USB mini-AB adapter cable (CA1090-541) to establish a
connection between the Program port on the enclosure and the PC’s USB port. This connection provides
serial-based communication between the integrated Master and NetLinx Studio. This port is useful for
getting and setting the system’s IP address (in NetLinx Studio, open Telnet and enter either
GET IP
<D:P:S> or SET IP <D:P:S>, where D:P:S is Device:Port:System).
Important: The Program port is not recommended for firmware updates or large file transfers.
These more data-intensive operations are better handled via the LAN 100/1000 port connection.
Cable Requirements
 USB mini-AB adapter cable (provided) – required to connect an Enova DGX Switcher via its
Program port to a PC.

The following table lists the modes and the blink patterns for the Program port’s LED indicators which
