Power Up
You can now attach the device to the local network using the RJ45 patch cable provided or any regular RJ45 ethernet patch lead. Insert the figure eight power cord into the base of the unit and plug it into the mains (100-240VAC). The unit will power up and come on-line in about 1 minute.

Determining the IP address
By default, the S200 ships with DHCP enabled. i.e. it will attempt to get an IP address from the local DHCP server on your network. However, this does mean that you will have to figure out the IP address of the unit before you can log into it. You can do this in one of several ways. You will need the MAC address of your S200. It is printed on the reverse of the appliance.
