CHAPTER 2
The RESET/ENCRYPT Button
Use the RESET/ENCRYPT button to automatically set up a secure powerline connection between
your powerline devices.
Note: In this guide RESET/ENCRYPT refers to the ENCRYPT button in PLAs that have
separate RESET and ENCRYPT buttons.
2.1 RESET/ENCRYPT Button Overview
The RESET/ENCRYPT button allows you to set up a secure powerline connection with other
HomePlug AV compliant powerline devices which also support the ENCRYPT feature. No other
powerline setting changes are required to connect.
You can use the RESET/ENCRYPT button to:
set up a new powerline network.
separate an existing powerline network into multiple networks.
reset the PLA to the factory defaults.
2.2 Adding Devices to a Powerline Network
You can connect a number of PLAs on a powerline network, but you can use the RESET/ENCRYPT
button on only two PLAs at a time.
Place a powerline device close to another powerline device so you have time to set up each one.
After you set up the first powerline device, you have 120 seconds to set up the second powerline
device.
Note: Your PLA must be connected to a networking equipment for the RESET/ENCRYPT
button to work. Refer to Section 1.3 on page 9 for more details.
Follow the steps below to set up your HomePlug AV Network:
1 Press the RESET/ENCRYPT button at the side of your powerline device for 0.5 to 3 seconds. The
power ( ) light will blink as the powerline device tries to set up a connection with a new random
network name.
