The module provides four DIP switches at the top of the enclosure as shown in the top view
figure above.
DIP Switch
Description
DIP Switch 1
Used to force the module into “Safe Mode”. When in “Safe Mode” the module will not
load the application firmware and will wait for new firmware to be downloaded. This
should only be used in the rare occasion when a firmware update was interrupted at
a critical stage.
DIP Switch 2
This will force the module into DHCP mode which is useful when the user has forgotten
the IP address of the module.
DIP Switch 3
This DIP Switch is used to lock the configuration from being overwritten by the Slate.
When set Slate will not be able to download to the module.
DIP Switch 4
When this DIP Switch is set at bootup it will force the module Ethernet IP address to
192.168.1.100
and network mask 255.255.255.0. The user can then switch the DIP
switch off and assign the module a static IP address if needed.
