Connecting a computer
To connect a PC directly to an ES881v2, ES1241v2, or ES16161v2, it must be equipped with a network card.
Use an E thernet cable to connect the network card to the RJ45 'Ethernet' port of the Clock Source device.
You can as w ell access the Clock Source through a regular Ethernet network via the device's RJ45 Ethernet
control port.
