    PixController 10-Position DIP Switch

 

Introduction

 

The 10-Position DIP switch on the PixController board is used to setup how the board controls the attached 
cameras, functions in day only, night only, 24 hour mode, and many more features. Listed below are 
instructions on how to setup the DIP switch feature on the LE board.  

Default Setting

 

 

The default settings for your camera are marked in Yellow 
 All switches Down (Off) except SW6 and SW10 Up (ON) and a summary is listed:  
 

 

10 Sec PIR Delay 

 

24 hour mode of operation

Green PIR LED ON 

PIR Delay Setting 

 
Switches 1 and 2 control the delay between PIR events. This setting is used so you can limit or not limit the 
number of photos taken when a motion event triggers your board. For example when you set your system up 
on a track you will want the 10 second delay setting so you can capture as many photos as possible, but when 
setup over a feeder you want to use the 10 minute PIR delay so you limit the number of photos of one animal.
