Dip Switch Settings
Dip switches on the rear panel of the station provide for the designation of “Off”
functionality, the ability to disable amber button LEDs, the ability to place a 4 button station
in space combine mode, and the ability to restore the station to its factory defaults.
Note:
ETC recommends that you reset power to the station after changing a dip
switch setting.
Switch # Use
1
When enabled, switch 1 provides “Use Off” functionality or “Sequence toggle”, depending
on the station type.
• For the 2, 4, 6, 8 and 4 button and fader stations, setting switch 1 to On enables “Use
Off” for the last button on the station when in Preset mode. When this is set to Off, the
“Off” function of the station is not provided.
• For the 1 button station, setting switch 1 On enables “Sequence toggle”.
2
When enabled, places the station in “Dark Station mode” and amber LEDs on the station will
be disabled. The default switch setting is Off. This this default mode, the amber LEDs are
illuminated so the station glows in darkened spaces, allowing it to be easily located.
3
Applies to the 4-button station only (E1004). Changes the station functionality to provide
space combine.
4
For non-dim applications. Setting this switch “On” forces all station controls to apply a
1/2 second fade time to all actions.

Restore to Defaults at boot. Setting this dip switch, then cycling power to the station restores
the station to factory defaults. Set the dip switch “Off” after the power has cycled.
Note:
When the station
is set to Custom, only dip switch number 8
applies. All other dip switch settings are ignored.
Each station ships from the factory with a default dip switch
setting. Reference
for details about each
station type and their related settings and factory defaults.
