NOTE

If you upgrade the firmware of your EDS from Turbo Ring to Turbo Ring V2, but do not reset the

switch to factory defaults, the DIP switches will be set to configure the EDS for a “Turbo Ring” ring. If you reset the switch to factory defaults, the DIP switches will be set to configure the EDS for a “Turbo Ring V2” ring.

How to Configure the Turbo Ring DIP Switches

The Turbo Ring DIP Switches are set to the OFF position at the factory.

NOTE

The four DIP Switches are used to configure both the “Turbo Ring”

 

and “Turbo Ring V2” protocols, depending on which protocol is

 

active. To select which protocol the EDS will use, start the user

 

interface software, and then use the left menu to navigate to the

 

Communication Redundancy page. To use one of the Turbo Ring

 

protocols for the EDS, select either “Turbo Ring” or “Turbo Ring V2”

 

in the Redundancy Protocol drop-down box. See the Configuring

 

“Turbo Ring” and “Turbo Ring V2” section in this chapter for

 

details.
