Setting node addresses
Most Crystal Vision cards have their unique node or card location address assigned
automatically by the panel processor based on the slot occupied in the frame and the
range address setting of the frame. Two ranges are provided to allow one control panel to
control two frames.
Older cards may have a special 16 position node switch for use with older frames such as
the FR2-12 or FR1-6.
In all of the current frames, this node switch should be set to zero (factory default)
and link J15 should be away from the top of the module.
Note:
Setting J15 towards the top of the module may cause incorrect node addressing on this
and other boards in current frames.

Set the remote node address in conjunction with link J15 as follows:
J15 away from the top of the module – set node addresses from 0 to 15 with SW1
J15 towards the top of the module – set node addresses from 16 to 31 with SW1 (15 is added to
switch setting)
The node address setting is only read on power up.
Note:
Node addresses 0-15 correspond to 0-F on SW1 in HEX with J4 towards the front.
Node addresses 16-31 correspond to 0-F on SW1 in HEX with J4 as shown.
(only every other HEX number may be shown on certain switches)
Please refer to the appropriate Frame Manual for further information about node and
range addresses.
Note:
Other jumper links on the board are for factory use only and should not be changed.
