7.2.1   Address Switch 

 
The “Address Switch” is used to set the node address of the MicroWave 330 receiver which is used for the 
alarm polling by one of the INTREPID™ controllers (RCM II, CM II, GCM II, PSM or SDK). The address can 
be set from 0 to 239. Switch SW2, as shown in Figure 31, is set by using the 

LSB (Least Significant Bit)

 as the 

binary reference starting point for address 1.

7.2.2   Audio Alarm Switch 

 

Each MicroWave 330 receiver includes an on board “Sonalert” buzzer for alarm annunciation. The audio can be 
turned on or off by switch SW4 as shown in Figure 32. The switch should be set to “On” when performing 
intrusion detection tests and set to “Off” when in operation.

7.2.3   Communications Ports 

 

Each MicroWave 330 receiver has three (3) communications ports. COM 1 and COM 2 are RS422 
communications ports. They are used to connect to the controller and to the next device in line for alarm polling. 
COM 3 is a RS232 dB9 connector and is the configuration port used with the UIST II to setup and configure the 
MicroWave 330 link. Each communications port has LED’s to indicate communications polling.

Caution:  

DO NOT APPLY POWER UNTIL ALL WIRE CONNECTIONS HAVE BEEN MADE.
