6. Power Up the cFP-1808
Check the DIP switches on the controller, making sure that the RESET IP switch
and CONSOLE OUT switches are in the OFF position. Plug in each power supply
to the Compact FieldPoint system. The cFP-1808 runs a power-on self test
(POST), during which the POWER and STATUS LEDs are steadily lit. After
about three seconds, the STATUS LED begins flashing steadily if there is an
Ethernet cable connected to the Ethernet port. The cFP-1808 is ready to be
configured.
If you have already assigned an IP address to the cFP-1808, the STATUS LED
turns off. The total boot time for a configured system is 10 –15 seconds.
If the STATUS LED does not light up as described here, refer to the cFP-1808
User Manual at

CD-ROM drive.
If the CONSOLE OUT switch is in the ON position, the cFP-1808 sends status
information to the host PC through the serial port. This status information includes
the version number of the firmware installed on the cFP-1808 and the network
configuration of the cFP-1808. To see this information, turn on the CONSOLE
OUT switch and reboot the cFP-1808. If you are using Windows XP, select
