Twinaxial Address Switch
The “ADDR” switch sets the logical device address. You may wish to use a small
screwdriver to turn the knob on this switch. Note that there is a black line on the side of this
knob which indicates the address that is currently selected. Only addresses 0 through 6 are
valid for twinaxial operation. Addresses 7, 8, and 9 are used for diagnostic purposes only and
are described later in this appendix in the section titled “Coaxial/Twinaxial Interface
Diagnostics”.
