If the proper power supply level is connected to the converter, the Power LED will be ON; indicating the converter is ON. The AX141520 is continuously monitoring the status of Link and Activity by reading the registers of Ethernet PHYs and will show the real-time update of Ethernet and Automotive Ethernet Link and Activity on Link and Activity LEDs, respectively.
2. CONNECTORS The converter has two connectors. 2.1 M12 8-pin The M12 8-pin connector is used for the Ethernet 1000BASE-T connection. The mating harness P/N is: AX070535. Figure 2 M12 8-pin Ethernet Connector with RJ45 2.2 M12 12-pin The M12 12-pin connector is used for power supply, RS-232, CAN, and Automotive Ethernet. 1 Phoenix Contact M12 12-pin connector (A-coded).

3.1 Show Configuration Parameter Press ‘1’ to see the Configuration parameters. This option will show Serial Number, Converter Mode, Converter Speed, and Log Timing. If the converter Mode is “Master”, it shows that Automotive Ethernet PHY is configured to work as Master. If the converter Mode is “Slave”, it shows that Automotive Ethernet PHY is configured to work as Slave.
3.2 Change Configuration Parameters Press ‘2’ to change the configuration parameters. This option gives the choice to change Serial Number, Mode, Speed, and Log Timing. Enter the name of the parameter that needs to be changed other than Serial Number. The option to change the Serial Number is not available for field updates. Enter the name from the list given on the Tera term window.
3.3 Set Default Configuration Parameters Press ‘3’ to set the default configuration parameters. This option will set the Mode and Speed to Slave and 1000Mbps respectively, as the default mode is Slave mode and default speed is 1000 Mbps. The log timing will be also changed to the default value, which is 1 Second. The configuration settings will be saved.
3.6 Start/Stop Logs Press ‘s’ to start or stop the debug logs. Starting the debug logs will print the supplied voltage to the Unit and Ethernet and Automotive Ethernet Link status on Tera Term, as per the Log Timing configuration. i.e., If Log Timing is 1 Second, the converter will print the debug logs every second.
3.8.1 Load New Application Firmware Press ‘1’ to upload new Firmware. The firmware will be erased. Type ‘Yes’ only if a valid firmware file is received from Axiomatic Technologies to reflash. Bootloader flags will be erased. Which shows that firmware is erased.
