2 Setting Up and Installing a DX70 Point-to-Point
Network
To set up and install DX70 kits, follow these steps. These kits ship from the factory bound together and with their inputs
and outputs mapped as shown in the I/O mapping tables.
1. Configure the Gateway and Node's DIP switches (if necessary).
2. Connect the sensors.
3. Apply power to the DX70 Gateway and Node.
4. Observe the LED behavior to verify the devices are communicating with each other.
5. Install your DX70 Gateway and Node into their final location.
2.1 Configure the DIP Switches
Before making any changes to the DIP switch positions, disconnect the power. DIP switch changes will not be recognized if
power isn't cycled to the device.
2.1.1 Accessing the Internal DIP Switches
To access the internal DIP switches, follow these steps:
1. Unscrew the four screws that mount the cover to the bottom housing.
2. Remove the cover from the housing without damaging the ribbon cable or the pins the cable plugs into.
3. Gently unplug the ribbon cable from the board mounted into the bottom housing.
4. Remove the black cover plate from the bottom of the device's cover.
The DIP switches are located behind the rotary dials.
After making the necessary changes to the DIP switches, place the black cover plate back into
position and gently push into place. Plug the ribbon cable in after verifying that the blocked hole
lines up with the missing pin. Mount the cover back onto the housing.
2.1.2 DIP Switch Settings for the DX70 Devices
Use the DIP switches on the circuit board to set the following parameters. Changes made to the DIP switches affect all I/O
for this device.
* Default positions.
2.1.2 Link Loss Output State
Use DIP switches 1 and 2 to select the state the outputs are changed to during a link loss.
