Module Configuration Switches

The RS1 Module utilizes a four position DIP switch (see figure
below) to configure the baud rate, protocol and checksum. These
switches must be set to match the application settings. Refer to the
paragraphs that follow for details.

Important: When you make changes to the switch settings, use a blunt,

pointed instrument (not a pen or pencil).

Setting the Baud Rate – SW1 & SW2

DIP switches SW1 and SW2 set the baud rate. Using the table below,
configure the module for your application. Selection of the “EPROM
Mode” (SW1 & SW2 are On) will cause the baud rate, protocol and
checksum settings to be read from the RS1 parameters listed below.
Note that these parameters must be programmed for correct
operation.

Baud Rate will be read from P110 - [EPROM Baud]
Checksum will be read from P109 - [EPROM Checksum]
Protocol will be read from P108 - [EPROM Protocol]

Important: If an “AIC+” is being used and “EPROM
Mode” is selected, SW3 must be set to “On” to enable
software handshaking.
