If DIP switch turns from ‘ON’ to ‘OFF’ or ‘OFF’ to ‘ON’, buzzer is generated. If the buzzer does
n’t stop after the DIP switch is changed, it means ID information or event is stored in the me
mory. In this case, delete existing ID and event by initialization then you can change data typ
e of reader port.
3.2 Board ID(Communication ID) Setting
Board ID is the unique address to communicate with PC. There is 5 channel DIP switch on th
e upper left side of the iCON100 board for board ID setting. Each DIP switch has assigned a
ddress value and the board ID is calculated by the sum value of each switch set to “ON” posit
ion. Board ID can be set from ‘0’ to ‘31’. The default value of board ID is’0’ (5 channel DIP swi
tch is set to ‘OFF’ position). Refer to the example below.
Each Board ID on the same communication loop must be not duplicated. If the sa
me Board IDs are on the same loop, the communication error will occur.
