Emerge EMS 2000 series Installer/User Guide
Switch Settings (Emerge EMS2400T Transmitter Only)
The Emerge EMS2400T transmitter module is equipped with 10-
way mini switches to allow quick configuration of various items. For
normal operation in the majority of cases, all switches should be OFF.
Switch 1 is used when upgrading the internal firmware and switches
2 to 10 are all related to various aspects of serial communications.
Note: All switch settings must be selected before power is applied.

IMPORTANT
It is essential that the source PC, all EMS2400T modules and all connected displays are configured
to use the same serial communication settings. The EMS2100T, EMS2100R & EMS2110R modules
all auto-sense the serial configuration and do not need to be set.
When switches SW2 to SW10 are all OFF, the module is set to expect the following serial port
configuration: 19200 baud, 8-bit data byte, 1 stop bit, no parity checking, software handshake.
