Confirm TimeProvider 100 Network Communication

If not already done, a standard RJ45 Ethernet cable should be connected from the
TimeProvider 100 port labeled MGMT into the network connection for 10/100
Base-T.
There are a number of ways to confirm that TimeProvider 100 is now available on
the network. The following is a method available on any Windows
1. From a PC that is on the same network as the TimeProvider 100, select Start >
Run.
2. In the Run dialog box, select cmd, then click OK. This will initiate a command

Pinging the TimeProvider 100
The response shown in
working properly.
If ping was not successful, here are some considerations:
First, ensure that a physical link has been established from the TimeProvider 100
to whatever it is connected to (likely a switch). The small green LED in the
upper-right-hand corner of the MGMT connector on the TimeProvider 100 (see
Figure
1-4) should be lit solid green. If it is not, there is likely a basic link problem.
Once the physical link is established, ensure that the device linked to the
TimeProvider 100 is capable of running 10/100 Base-T. The TimeProvider 100
will auto-negotiate the rate, but does not support speeds other than 10/100
Base-T.
