3.1. Power up the EDGE device
a. Connect CAN-H and CAN-L lines from CAT Engine ECM to CANH and CANL ports of EDGE
device. (No GND connection required).
b. Switch ON COM-1 switch that corresponds to CAN Termination resistance of 120 Ohms.
c. Connect 24VDC power supply to EDGE device (Keep it powered OFF).
3.2. Initial connection over the Ethernet port
a. EDGE devices come set with a fixed IP 192.168.20.1. This IP domain can be used to
connect to the EDGE device.
b. Connect an Ethernet patch cord, one end of the cord to the Ethernet port of the EDGE and
the other to the port on your computer.
c. Power ON the EDGE using the correct source for the model of the device.
d. On a Windows computer, Open 'Network & Internet Settings'. Then select 'Change adapter
