Setup

Set Address/Baud Rate

Configure the communications speed and network address of the MicroDIN
controller with the eight-bit DIP switch on the top panel. Set the controller
address with the first six switches. Set an address between 1 and 63. The
network will not work correctly if any two controllers have the same address.
DIP switch 1 sets the left-most binary digit. Switch 6 sets the right-most digit.

Record the MicroDIN’s address in erasable marker on the white space
on the front of the unit.

The seventh switch has no effect.

Set the network speed (9,600 or 19,200 baud) with the eighth switch.
