STEP ONE: Connecting the Network Cable and Establishing Communications
A) Using a flat-head screwdriver, remove the screw underneath the L-shaped cover located at the bottom of the
Datalog-Keypad. Separating the L-shaped cover from the Datalog-Keypad will expose the network and power
connections.
B) Plug the end of the network cable into the top jack on the left side of the Datalog-Keypad.
C) One solid and one flashing Green light next to the network plug on the Datalog-Keypad will confirm an active
connection.
D) Plug the power cable for your new Datalog-Keypad into a UPS Battery Backup. Time/date should appear on the
display, and you can test your connection by pressing the ENTER button on the Datalog-Keypad.
E) When the ENTER button is pressed the Datalog-Keypad will display "Data transfer successful". This indicates
that communication is established with the HandyTrac server.
NOTE: It is crucial to connect your HandyTrac system to a UPS (Uninterruptable Power Supply) which serves as your
battery backup and surge protection device. Without a UPS, valuable information can be lost in the event of a power
outage. Warranty will be voided if a UPS is not used.
