Connecting Cables
NOTE. The following cables can be connected w hile the instruments are powered on.
To connect the hub to TekLink cables, do the following procedure:
1. Connect a TekLink cable to a TekLink port
on the hub.

Mounting the Hub
You can mount the hub to a surface, such as a n existing rackmount tray or to a bracket of your design, by doing the following
procedure:
1. Remove the four adhesive-backed, plastic
feet from the hub.
2. Refer to the dimensions shown in the
illustration, and drill holes in the mounting
surface for two screws.
CAUTION. Using screws that are to o long will
damage the internal circuitry. Screws should
enter the chassis ≤0.4in. (1.03cm).
3. Mount the hub using two 6-32 screws of
appropriate length.
NOTE. Some rackmount kits have provisions
for mounting accessories, such as the hub.

Troubleshooting
Troubleshooting
Before starting to troubleshoot, note the following:
There are no use r serviceable parts.
Thereisnoperformanceverification procedure.
If your hub does not appear to work, do the following checks:
1. Check the cables.
The TekLink cables should be fully inserted
on both the TekLink hub and the instrument.
Failure means the cables were not inserte d
correctly or the cables failed.
2. Check the power.
There is no direct indication the hub is
powered on. You must check power by
observing the status LEDs on the ports.
Remove the power cord and plug the
power cord back in. The status L EDs
should briefly flash amber and then turn off.
Failure implies either the hub power system
failed or the external power supply failed.
8 TL704H TekLink 4 Port Instrument Hub User Manual
3. Check the port s tatus LED.
A status LED should be illuminated amber
if you expect a TekLink connection to exist.
There are periods of time when TekLink
will not function:
When an instrument is first powering on;
the operating system drives the TekLink
hardware and it is necessary for the
operating syste m to be running to establish
a TekLink connection.
Whenahubisfirst powering on: the
hub will perform initialization tasks before
establishing a TekLink connection.
Failure implies the cable may be bad , the
TekLink Ethernet device in the instrument
has failed, or the Ethernet system in the
hub has failed.
