WARNING!

To prevent electrical shock, television interference (TVI),

broadcast interference (BCI) and other problems, ground the

VE-PG3 through the ground terminal.

For best results, connect a heavy gauge wire or strap to a ground

terminal of an AC outlet or a long ground rod. Make the distance

between the ground terminal and ground as short as possible.

NEVER connect the ground terminal to a gas or electric pipe.

This may result in an electrical shock or cause a fire.

See the PC's instruction manual for the setting details.

Set the static VE-PG3 IP address assigned by the network

administrator.
