    A Practical step-by-step operation guide for starters This part is a step-by-step tutorial explaining how to start with BEM106. We'll not discuss too much details here. The only idea here is to make it work by minimum steps. For more information, please refer to later chapters.

  • Page 6: Lan Mode

    3.2 LAN Mode 1. Connect BEM106 with your routers or computer by Ethernet cable, and then power it on with 5 - 24VDC power supply. (see fig.1.1 at page 2) 2. Open any TCP test tool (if you don't have any, or you don't know what a TCP test tool is, you can use BE-Manager, it is within our software package).
