Insert a screwdriver in the rotary switch (GROUP) on the rear panel and set the
group number.
Setting the Unit ID
3.
Insert a screwdriver in the rotary switch (UNIT) on the rear panel and set the unit
ID.
4.
Turn ON the SL1000.
Explanation
Group ID
Set the group ID to which the unit belongs.
Selectable range: 0 to F
Unit ID
Set the unit ID.
During independent operation
Set the unit ID to “0”.
During synchronous operation
• Master unit’s unit ID: 0
• Slave units’ unit IDs: 1 to 7
Note
• Rotary switch (UNIT) positions 8 and 9 are invalid.
• The group and unit IDs are not changed while the SL1000 is turned ON. To change the
group or unit ID, set them after you turn OFF the SL1000.
• To perform synchronous operation, set the master and slave units to the same group ID (from
0 to F). Set the master unit’s unit ID to 0 and the slave units’ unit IDs to values from 1 to 7 in
ascending order starting with the slave unit that is closest to the master unit. Note that the
SL1000s will not operate properly if you assign incorrect values.
Example when four SL1000s are synchronized using group ID 1.
Master: GROUP-ID = 1 and UNIT-ID = 0
Slave #1: GROUP-ID = 1 and UNIT-ID = 1
Slave #2: GROUP-ID = 1 and UNIT-ID = 2
Slave #3: GROUP-ID = 1 and UNIT-ID = 3
