NOTE
If you do not enable any of the IE-SW-VL05/08M switches to
be the Ring Master, the Turbo Ring protocol will automatically
choose the switch with the smallest MAC address range to
be the Ring Master. If you accidentally enable more than one
IE-SW-VL05/08M switch to be the Ring Master, these
switches will auto-negotiate to determine which one will be
the Ring Master.
NOTE
To switch on the Master or Coupler functions of the DIP
switch, you have to enable the Turbo Ring Pole first.
