Chapter 5: NMK(GROUP) Button This section demonstrates how to add or remove devices from a HomePlug AVLN with the “NMK(GROUP)” button. The “Power” LED indicates the operation status and result. 5.1 Forming a HomePlug AV Logical Network When two devices with different NMK values are connected to the same powerline and you want them to form a logical network, follow the following procedures: Step 1 Press the “NMK(GROUP)” button on device A for less than 3 seconds.
Step 2 Press the “NMK(GROUP)” button on any device in the network for less than 3 seconds. This should be done within 1 minute. Step 3 Wait for the connection to complete. The “Power” LED on both devices will blink evenly at 1-second intervals until the operation succeeds or fails. If the connection succeeds, it will illuminate steadily. If an error occurs, the power LED on the adder will blink unevenly until the “NMK(GROUP)” button on the adder is pressed again or the joiner is reset.
