2.3 SETUP - DIP SWITCH SETTINGS
These settings apply to Microvacs with version 3.00 or later software.
Please note that the DIP switches are read only on power up, so that if any changes are
made, power must be removed and reapplied for the changes to have effect. If batteries are
connected, they must be temporarily disconnected.
In the following paragraphs, switch A:B refers to package "A" switch "B".
2.3.1 NETWORKED MODE
Networked mode is selected by switching switches 1:2, 1:3, 1:4, 1:5, and 1:6 ON.
Switch 1:1 should be
ON for a normal Microvac
OFF for a "faceless" Microvac with no control panel.
Switches 1:7 and 1:8 select the board address, to allow for multiple Microvac boards
connected to one ECM.
Switch 1:8 OFF, switch 1:7 OFF : 1

In networked mode, the time delays are set up with a terminal connected to the ECM, as
described in LT0088 "QE90 Installation and Commissioning Manual", Chapter 20.
2.3.2 ALERT TO EVACUATE DELAY (NON NETWORKED MODE)
Switches 1:1 to 1:6 allow the "Alert to Evacuate Delay" to be set to any time between 0
seconds and 600 seconds in 10 second increments. The time selected will be the sum of the
weightings of each switch which is ON, as given below -
Switch 1:1 : 10 seconds
Switch 1:2 : 20 seconds
Switch 1:3 : 40 seconds
Switch 1:4 : 80 seconds
Switch 1:5 : 160 seconds
Switch 1:6 : 320 seconds
For example, to select a time of 2 minutes (120 seconds), switches 1:3 and 1:4 should be
ON and 1:1, 1:2, 1:5, and 1:6 should be OFF.
Do not switch all of switches 1:2 to 1:6 on to select a time longer than 600 seconds as this
will select networked mode.
2.3.3 INITIAL DELAY BEFORE ALERT (NON NETWORKED MODE)
Switches 1:7 and 1:8 allow various times from 0 to 120 seconds to be set up for the "Initial
Delay before Alert".
Switch 1:8 OFF, switch 1:7 OFF : 0 seconds
Switch 1:8 OFF, switch 1:7 ON : 30 seconds
Switch 1:8 ON, switch 1:7 OFF : 60 seconds
Switch 1:8 ON, switch 1:7 ON : 120 seconds
