• Unplug your CloudWatcher from the power supply (if applicable)
  • Using the same power supply, power the SOLO—either of its two plugs will do
  • With the included (short) cable, join the other jack plug on the SOLO with the CloudWatcher
  • Attach the SubD-9 (serial) connector from the CloudWatcher to the SOLO
  • And, of course, connect the SOLO to your local network using a standard RJ45 cable (not supplied)

…that's it. In a few seconds the "activity" LED on the SOLO will start blinking (slowly), showing it is communicating with the CloudWatcher.

Next: once the SOLO is connected and running, see Section 2, Accessing the data, to reach its web page and data files.
