5.3.2 Troubleshooting the ThinWire Segment
If you have verified your Thin Wire Ethernet installation and have found
problems, use the following checklist to make sure all connections are
correct:
1. Check that all connections are secure on the Thin Wire Ethernet
segment.
2. Check that there is a T-connector between the connector on the
Thin Wire cable and the system unit.
3. Check that there is no ThinWire segment between the system and the
T-connector. (The T-connector must attach directly to the system.)
4. Check that there are no branches off a Thin Wire segment except
through a DEMPR (DIGITAL Ethernet Multi-port Repeater).
A DEMPR provides eight ThinWire Ethernet drops from a single
standard Ethernet connection.
