3. Connect CONSULT-II to the ASIST PC with the special Ethernet cable (P/N 02002554, printed on the cable) contained in the CONSULT-II kit.
NOTE:
Connect the special ethernet cable to the ASIST PC by connecting it to the ethernet card connection port located on the back of the computer. Connect the special ethernet cable to CONSULT-II at the PC port located at the bottom end of the CONSULT-II unit.
4. Set the Ethernet (IP) Address of the ASIST PC and CONSULT-II as follows:
NOTE:
If the Ethernet (IP) address between the ASIST PC and CONSULT-II has already been established, proceed to step 5.
