LABEL DESCRIPTION

Adapter This field identifies which powerline network information is displayed. Different

powerline networks are identified by the Ethernet interface (network card) connected

directly to the PLA-4xx. Typically there is only one connection, however, if your

computer has two network cards and both are connected to a PLA-4xx, then you have

two powerline networks.

Central

Coordinator

MAC

The Central Coordinator of the powerline network is the powerline adapter which

keeps track of which devices are part of the network as well as synchronizes

communication within the powerline network. If the Central Coordinator is removed

from the powerline network then another powerline adapter takes its place. This field

displays the MAC address of the PLA-4xx which is the Central Coordinator of the

powerline network. This powerline adapters in your powerline network automatically

select the Central Coordinator.

The information provided in the following table reflects transmission rate information about the

powerline adapters which communicate in your powerline network.

The powerline adapters listed in this table are all the powerline adapters in your powerline network

except the powerline adapter selected in the Configuration page of the configuration utility. In other

words, if the Local powerline adapter is selected in the Configuration screen, then this table will

display the rates of transmission from the powerline adapter connected to the computer running the

configuration utility to all the Remote powerline adapters.

Site This field displays:

• Local, if it is the PLA-4xx directly connected to the computer running the

configuration utility.

• Remote, if it is a PLA-4xx in your powerline network but not directly connected to

the computer running the configuration utility.

MAC Address This field displays the MAC address of your powerline adapter. The MAC address of

your powerline adapter can be found by looking at the label on your device. It consists

of six pairs of hexadecimal characters (hexadecimal characters are “0-9” and “a-f”). In

the case of the PLA-4xx, this label is on the bottom of the device.
