The 10 DIP switches are located in the middle of the KT-200
controller circuit board. The top 5 switches (1 to 5) configure the
KT-200's address and dip switches 6 & 7 set the communication
PORT-1 baud rate.
The factory default baud rate is set at 9,600 baud (Dip6 OFF, dip7
ON), DIP switches 8 & 9 set the controller with or without a VC-
485. Please refer to the following tables to set the DIP switches on
the KT-200 controller. Press down the dip switch on the right side
to set ON and on the left side to set OFF.
Please note that the dip switch settings will only become effective
after resetting the controller by powering it off or pressing the SW3
reset switch located on the bottom left of the controller PCB.

Dip Switch #10 is always OFF.
Setting up a Local System Without a VC-485
1) Set J3 to the DOWN position (RS-232 mode) on the KT-200.
2) Set dipswitches 8 and 9 to ON on the KT-200 that will be
connected to the Host (this sets up the KT-200 as a master
controller without modem).
3) Set dip switch 1 to ON. Press RESET. Set dipswitch 1 to
OFF. Press RESET again (this procedure initializes the KT-
200 as a master controller with modem).
4) Verify that dip switches 6 & 7 (9600 by default) are properly
set for the correct baud rate with the other KT-200s.
5) Verify that the communications cable connected to the
Workstation and the Controller is properly wired and
connected.
Setting up local System with VC-485
1) Verify the wiring between the KT-200 and the VC-485.
2) Verify the wiring between the VC-485 and the Workstation.
3) Verify if both LEDs are illuminated on the VC-485.
4) If only the yellow is on, the host is trying to communicate
with the controller.
5) If only the red is on (or flashes), the controller is trying to
communicating with the PC host. If controllers are not
communicate, verify that the RS-485 bus wiring is correct.
That is X+ and X- and the ground is properly connected
between the KT-200 and the VC-485. If one wire is not
properly connected, the KT-200 may be communicating in
degraded mode.
Step 11. Jumper Settings
Jumper default values are set at the factory and should only be
modified for special applications. Since new settings become valid
only after resetting the power, make sure that all power has been
removed from the KT-200 controller before changing jumper
settings. All other jumpers on the controller board should be left
as set by the factory.
