Before Physical Installation

It is recommended that you create the Powerline data connection next to

each other before physically install the Powerline adapter to the outlet

you want. With this practice, you can have ample time to do the

synchronization with the side by side Powerline adapter instead of

running around to different rooms. And, you can make sure your

Powerline adapters are properly setup and working good in your electric

network.

Note: If you don’t want to change the use the default network name for easy

connection, skip the following steps and go directly to Physical Installation on page

Connecting the Powerline Adapters

1. Make sure your Powerline adapter is powered on and not in sleep

mode. The Power LED should be on.

2. Scramble the first Powerline adapter by pushing Sync button for 15

seconds. All LEDs will turned off and then turned on again. This will

generate a new random network name for your Powerline adapter.

3. Make sure the second Powerline adapter is powered on and plug in

the same electric network. No power strip, power break, or any kind

of power switch in between.

Start connecting

4. Push and hold the Sync button on the first (the one with scrambled

network name) Powerline adapter for 2 seconds and then release it.

The Powerline adapter is starting a 2 minutes synchronization

session. It will accept the other synchronization request on the same

electric network. The Power LED will start blinking showing it is in

synchronizing.

5. Push and hold the Sync button on the second Powerline adapter for

2 seconds and release it. The Power LED will start blinking. The

adapter will request for synchronizing. All LEDs will turn off and

turn back on in the end of the session. The Powerline LED will turn

on when the adapters are connected successfully.

Connecting Additional Powerline Adapters

Follow up the same steps described in the last section. You can choose

any one of the Powerline adapter already connected as the first adapter.

Start the synchronization session on that Powerline adapter first. And

then start the synchronization session on the additional Powerline

adapter.
