6.1.1 

SELF ADDRESS Dipswitches 

The SELF ADDRESS dipswitch determines the position of a 

OMX-SW8x8NT 

unit in the sequence, specifying which

 OMX-SW8x8NT 

unit is being controlled, when several

 OMX-SW8x8NT 

units are controlled 

by a PC or serial controller. Set the SELF ADDRESS on a

 OMX-SW8x8NT 

unit via dipswitches 1, 2, and 3, according to Table 5.
