4-4 N_SIGHT R900 User’s Manual for the Neptune Handheld System
The Router
If you are using a router to link cradles to exchange information with
more than one Nomad at a time, check that you have the following
items:
• One or more Nomad handheld computers.
• One communication cradle for each Nomad.
• One AC adapter/battery charger cable for each cradle.
• One RJ45 Ethernet cable for each communication cradle.
• One RJ45 Ethernet cable to connect the router to the PC.
• One router/switch with one AC power supply cable.
Connecting to the Host Computer and Power Supply
The procedures in this chapter describe how to connect the Nomad to
the host computer so that it can exchange information with the host. The
procedures also describe how to connect a power supply to the
communications cradle so that you can recharge the battery. Complete
the following procedures to connect the equipment you have.
It is important that the router you use has the capability to work as a switch.
In order for the Communications function to work properly, a stan-
dard RJ45 Ethernet cable must be used.
This configuration is for handhelds not connected to a system network. If you
are connected to a system network, see the network specialist or your system
administrator for assistance.
