Expanding an existing Powerline Adapter PL200D network with a new
Powerline Adapter PL200D
If you have already secured your existing Powerline Adapter PL200D net-
work using the encryption button, use the same method to integrate other
adapters. Once you have successfully connected the new Powerline Adapter
PL200D, first press the encryption button of one of your network's existing
adapters (< 1 second), then press the encryption button of your new Power-
line Adapter PL200D (< 1 second) within two minutes. That's it! The new
Powerline Adapter PL200D is now integrated in your network.
To integrate additional adapters in your network, repeat the above steps.
Excluding a Powerline Adapter PL200D from your network
To exclude a Powerline Adapter PL200D from an existing network, press its
encryption button for at least ten seconds. The device will be assigned a
new randomly generated password and will thus no longer be able to access
the network. To integrate the adapter in a different Powerline Adapter
PL200D network, follow the steps described above, depending on whether
you are setting up a new network or adding the adapter to an existing one.
