F.1 TCP/IP Connections
Programming and development can be done with the MiniCore without connecting the Ethernet
port to a network. However, if you will be running the sample programs that use the Ethernet
capability or will be doing Ethernet-enabled development, you should connect the Ethernet port
on the Interface Board at this time.
Before proceeding you will need to have the following items.
• If you don't have Ethernet access, you will need at least a 10Base-T Ethernet card (available
from your favorite computer supplier) installed in a PC.
• Two CAT 4/5 Ethernet cables and a hub, or one CAT 4/5 Ethernet cable.
NOTE: The Ethernet cables and a 10Base-T Ethernet hub are available from Rabbit in a TCP/IP
tool kit. More information is available at www.digi.com.
Now you should be able to make your connections.
1. Connect the AC adapter and the USB cable as shown in Chapter 2, "Getting Started."
2. Ethernet Connections
There are four options for connecting the Interface Board to a network for development and
runtime purposes. The first two options permit total freedom of action in selecting network
addresses and use of the "network," as no action can interfere with other users. We recommend
one of these options for initial development.
The simplest alternative for desktop development. Connect the Interface

Board's Ethernet port directly to the PC's network interface card using an CAT 4/5
Ethernet cable.
Micro-LAN —
10Base-T hub and connect both the PC's network interface card and the Interface Board's
Ethernet port to it using standard network cables.
