5.4.1 Setting the Machine # Dipswitches
The Machine # (dipswitches 1 to 4) determines the position of a
VS-81ETH
unit, specifying which
VS-81ETH
unit is being controlled when several
VS-81ETH
units connect to a PC or serial controller. Set the Machine # on a
VS-81ETH
unit via SETUP DIPS 1, 2, 3 and 4, according to Table 4.
When using a standalone
VS-81ETH
unit, set the Machine # to 1. When
connecting more than one
VS-81ETH
unit, set the first machine (the Master)
that is closest to the PC, as Machine # 1 (dipswitches are set to OFF).
