"Xircom"-style Ethernet adapters have a software-
controlled power light. This power light won't come
on until the VIP unit has been configured to work with
the adapter, so you may not see the power light until
after you have adjusted VIP's setup menus.
Connect the Power
Once you are sure everything is connected properly, connect the power
cable to the rear of the VIP unit and then plug it into a power outlet.
Test the Demo Disk
Once you've connected a monitor to your VIP unit and have applied
power, you should see one of the menu screens on your unit, such as the
one shown here:
At this point, insert the included demonstration disk. The unit should
change to a "gallery" screen like the one shown below (the individual
images may vary), and you will see each page being loaded from the
disk. If you receive any error messages during this process, you may
have a defective demo disk or a defective floppy drive. (Do not press
any buttons on the remote during the loading procedure – this will
interrupt the unit.)
