Introduction

Electrical environment information

HD-PLC adaptors send data to and from each other over the existing electrical wiring in your home, and may be affected by electrical noise or the length of your home’s wiring. Keep the following in mind when placing each adaptor.

AC outlets

For best results, we recommend connecting the adaptors directly to a wall outlet. Avoid connecting high power-consuming appliances to the same wall outlet. Additionally, connecting an adaptor to a uninterruptable power supply (UPS) or backup power supply device is not recommended.

While connecting the adaptors to a wall outlet is recommended, keep the following in mind if you must connect an adaptor to a power strip:

• Make sure the power strip does not have a noise filter or a surge protector,

as these features may interfere with the performance of your adaptors.

• Do not connect the adaptor to a power strip that receives power from

another power strip.

• Use a power strip with an AC cord that is as short as possible.

Electrical interference

Certain electrical devices emit electrical noise. If this noise is passed on to the electrical wiring in your home, it may interfere with the performance, speed, and reliability of your adaptors. For best results, we recommend connecting an electrical noise filter to noise emitting appliances.

The following appliances are more likely to produce noise:

• Battery chargers (including cell phone chargers)

• Hair dryers

• Vacuum cleaners

• Lights or lamps which have a dimmer switch or a touch-sensitive on/off feature

• Power drills

Additionally, this product may interfere with the following appliances:

• Short wave radios

• Lights or lamps which have a touch-sensitive on/off feature

Electrical wiring

HD-PLC adaptors send data to and from each other over the existing electrical wiring in your home. If 2 wall outlets are separated by a great length of electrical wiring, the adaptors connected to those outlets may not be able to communicate with each other.

For more information, refer to the troubleshooting section (see page 15) or access

the Panasonic PLC Support Site at: http://panasonic.co.jp/pcc/products/en/plc/

After you have placed the adaptors where you plan to use them and plugged them into the wall outlets, test the terminal’s network speed (see page 11).

5[For assistance, please call: 1-800-272-7033]

Introduction

Security information

1. With any network connection, security is a concern. The BL-PA100A provides

security to prevent unauthorized access to your network.

• Only terminals that are registered to the master adaptor can communicate with the network.

• A terminal may be registered to the master only if the SETUP buttons

on the master and terminal are pressed within 5 seconds of each other.

2. Data sent and received over the PLC network employs AES 128-bit

encryption, however we cannot guarantee that data will not be intercepted by a third party.

3. For security, we recommend resetting your adaptors (see page 13) in the

following situations.

• If for some reason you are concerned that another adaptor may have been accidentally registered to your master (for example, the adaptor of someone who lives in the same apartment building as you), reset each of your adaptors and register them again.

• If you discard an adaptor, give an adaptor to someone else to use, or have an adaptor serviced, reset the adaptor first.

• If you lose an adaptor, reset each of your adaptors and register them again.

Introduction

How does it work?

Each HD-PLC adaptor has an AC cord that plugs into a wall outlet. This connection not only powers the adaptor, but also allows the adaptor to send data to and from the other adaptors in your home using your existing electrical wiring. Each adaptor also has a LAN jack, which connects each adaptor to your broadband router, hub, computer, network printer, network camera, etc.

Once your adaptors are registered, simply plug them into the wall outlets around your home. (The included adaptors are already registered. To register additional adaptors, see page 14.) Finally, connect the master adaptor to your broadband internet router or modem, and then connect the other adaptors to your network devices (computers, network printers, network cameras, etc.). When you’re finished, each network device will be able to access the internet as well as each other.

Master and terminal adaptors

Before using your adaptors, it is important to understand the concept of a “master” adaptor and a “terminal” adaptor.

An HD-PLC network contains at least 2 adaptors. One (and only one) adaptor must be configured as the master. All other adaptors are configured as terminals. (A maximum of 15 terminals per network is recommended.) An adaptor is configured as either a master or a terminal during registration (see page 14). For simplicity, we recommend configuring the adaptor that is directly connected to one of your router’s LAN ports as the master.

Troubleshooting

Performance issues

The troubleshooting notes in this section are provided to resolve the following types of performance issues.

• Inability to transmit data over the HD-PLC network

• Slow data transmission speeds (interrupted video or audio, slow download speeds, etc.)

• Intermittent or varied performance (faster at certain times, slower at others)

• Interference caused by an adaptor

•The PLC indicator is not lit in blue even though you have registered the

adaptor.

Troubleshooting notes

In most cases, performance issues such as those listed above can be resolved by performing the following troubleshooting notes. Each note contains several steps. After you perform each step, test the terminal’s network speed (see page 11) to see if the issue has been resolved. For more information, access the Panasonic

PLC Support Site at: http://panasonic.co.jp/pcc/products/en/plc/

Troubleshooting note #1: Adaptor issues

Perform each step until the performance issue is solved.

1. Confirm that the AC cords of both the master and terminal adaptor are

connected to the wall outlet. If an adaptor’s LAN indicator is not lit, the adaptor

is not receiving power.

2. Confirm that all LAN cables are securely connected to each adaptor. Use

quality LAN cables. Also confirm that other network devices (routers, hubs, etc.) are turned on as well as properly connected and configured.

3. Disconnect the AC cord from the master and/or terminal adaptor, then

connect it again to restart the adaptor.

4. Try connecting the master and/or terminal adaptor to a different wall outlet.

5. If you are not able to connect an adaptor’s AC cord directly to a wall outlet and

must use a power strip, make sure the power strip is plugged directly into a wall outlet and not to another power strip.

6. Make sure the power strip does not have a noise filter or a surge protector, as

these features may interfere with the performance of your adaptors.

7. Use a power strip with an AC cord that is as short as possible.

8. Re-register the terminal following the procedure on page 14.

If you are still experiencing performance issues, continue to the next troubleshooting note.
