Omnitron Systems Technology FlexSwitch 6700 FK AC - Manual (Page 4)

3.3 Configuring the DIP-Switches
The 6700-FK has been pre-configured with Auto-Negotiation enabled for plug
and play ease of use. However, the iConverter Switch Modules offer additional
configuration flexibility.
3.3.1 Switch Module
Each 4-Port Switch Module has been pre-configured for Auto-Negotiation.
On-board DIP-Switches are available to manually configure Port 1 and 2 of
each module. The figure indicates the factory default settings.

4 Port Switch Module DIP-Switch
Backplane Port A Enable/Disable “BP A EN” DIP-Switch
This DIP-Switch must be in the LEFT position (factory default) for the module
to operate correctly. The switch provides backplane connectivity with the
other switch module.
Backplane Port A Enable/Disable “BP B EN” DIP-Switch
This DIP-Switch must be in the LEFT position (factory default) for the module
to operate correctly. The switch provides backplane connectivity with the
other switch module.
UTP Auto-Negotiate/Manual “AN / MAN” DIP-Switch (Port 1 or Port 2)
When this DIP-Switch is in the UTP Auto-Negotiate “AN” position (factory
default), the UTP port automatically determines the speed and duplex mode of
the connecting UTP device. If the connecting UTP device cannot provide the
proper signal to indicate its own mode of operation, this DIP-Switch should be
set to the UTP Manual mode “MAN” position. Manual mode requires manually
configuring the UTP port to match the speed and the duplex mode of the
connecting UTP device using the “10/100” and UTP “FD/HD” DIP-Switches.
When a UTP port is configured for Auto-Negotiation, the automatic crossover
detection is enabled for that particular UTP port. Automatic crossover detection
is disabled when the UTP port is configured for manual negotiation.

UTP 10/100Mbps “10/100” DIP-Switch (Port 1 or Port 2)
When the UTP “AN/MAN” DIP-Switch (described above) is in the manual
“MAN” position, the “10/100” DIP-Switch determines the speed of operation
for the designated UTP port. Setting the “10/100” DIP-Switch to “100” position
(factory default) forces the UTP port to operate at 100Mbps. Setting this DIP-
Switch to “10” position forces the UTP port to operate at 10Mbps. Adjust the
“10/100” DIP-Switch to match the speed of the connecting UTP device.
UTP Full/Half-Duplex “HD/FD” DIP-Switch (Port 1 or Port 2)
When the UTP “AN/MAN” DIP-Switch (described above) is in the manual
“MAN” position, the “HD/FD” DIP-Switch determines the duplex operation
mode for the UTP port. Setting the “HD/FD” DIP-Switch to UTP Full-Duplex
“FD” (factory default) position forces the UTP port to operate in Full-Duplex.
Setting this DIP-Switch to “HD” forces the UTP port to operate in Half-Duplex.
Adjust the UTP Half/Full-Duplex DIP-Switch to match duplex mode the
connecting UTP device.
When the UTP “AN/MAN” DIP-Switch is in the Auto-Negotiate “AN” position
and the UTP Full/Half Duplex DIP-Switch is in the Full-Duplex “FD” position,
the UTP port Auto-Negotiates to Full or Half-Duplex. When in the Half-
Duplex “HD” position, the UTP port functions only in Half-Duplex.
