EXAMPLES
Standard control panel
–
panel address set to 5
Switch 1 = Off
Switch 2 = On (Value 4 added to address)
Switch 3 = Off
Switch 4 = On (Value 1 added to address)
4 + 1 = 5
Speed control card - lamp address set to 11
Switch 4 = Off
Switch 5 = On (Value 8 added to address)
Switch 6 = Off
Switch 7 = On (Value 2 added to address)
Switch 8 = On (Value 1 added to address)
8 + 2 + 1 = 11
ADDRESSING SYSTEM
The addressing system is very simple. Every lamp must have a unique address. The
addresses should be sequential and should start from zero. If there were three lamps in a
system the addresses should be set to 0, 1 and 2.
Control panel
–
panel addresses use the same system being sequential and start from zero.
It is essential that all lamp have a unique address with no duplication.
It is essential that all panels have a unique address with no duplication however note that
lamps and panels can be the same address. For example, on a system with two panels and
two lamps, the panel addresses will be 0 and 1 and the lamps addresses will be 0 and 1.
Control panel lamp addresses are defined by the system configuration. If two panels are used
to control the same lamp they must still have individual panel addresses but the lamp
addresses can be set to the same address value as the lamp which is to be controlled. Any
number of panels can control the same lamp.
