Appendix B
DIP switch settings
The following information details the functions of the DIP switch settings within the transmitter. The unit has six DIP switches
mounted on the electronics module. DIP switches 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 are the only active switches. Switches are ON in the up position
and OFF in the down position (Figure 54). By default, all DIP switches are set to the OFF position.
Figure 54: DIP switches
When power is applied to the transmitter, the application software checks for the states of DIP switches 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 on the
electronics module. The configuration of the switch settings defines what action, if any, is taken.
The state of switch 5 may be set before or after power is applied and also at any time during operation. This alternate functionality
allows the unit to be moved into write-protect mode while still operating.
IMPORTANT NOTES:
DIP switch 6 is not connected.
Always disconnect the transmitter from the power supply before making changes to DIP switches 1 through 4.
The transmitter must then be restarted in order for the new configurations to be loaded.
