Basic Port Settings

When using the Configure button to set port communication
modes:
1. Use a long press (>2 seconds) to begin function selection.
The Status LED will start to flash to indicate that functions
may be selected. Use short presses (<2 seconds) to cycle
through the status LEDs until the Full/Half LED lights. Use a
long press to initiate port communication mode selection.
After the button is released, the Full-Duplex LED for Port 1
will begin to flash.
2. Use long presses to cycle through to the chosen port. The
selection of the targeted port will be indicated by the lighting
of the Tx/Rx LED for that port.
3. Use a short press to change the communication mode for the
targeted port. The chosen mode will be indicated by the
Full-Duplex LED for the port (Lit = Full*, Unlit = Half).
4. Use a long press to enable the selection.
5. Repeat Steps 2 through 4 for each chosen port.
The default communication mode setting for all ports is Auto-
Negotiation, which dynamically selects either half- or full-duplex
mode and 10 or 100 Mbps operating speed in response to the
operating mode of the attached device. Auto-Negotiation can
be re-established after a manual port configuration by removing
the RJ-45 connector from the corresponding port on the switch
and then reinserting it.
*Note: Full-duplex mode can be used only for a dedicated link. When
connecting to a shared collision domain (e.g., a hub), be sure the
transmission mode is set for half-duplex mode.
