B&B Electronics 232MSS2 manual Communication & Port Setup Dipswitch SW1 3 4 5 6 7 Setting

Chapter 2: SETUP

The 232MSS2 is set up using an eight-position dipswitch. This dipswitch is used to set the communication format, port config- uration, smart switch/port combiner mode and to enable/disable the enhanced features. To change the settings on the switch, remove the power from the unit, and remove the screws (4) from the bottom of the 232MSS2. The dipswitch is located on the top of the PC board (side with LEDs) and is labeled “SW1.” The other dipswitch, labeled “SW2” is used to set the second character of the preamble. After the switches have been set to match your requirements, you can put the unit back together. NOTE: The end panel should be open end towards the bottom of the PC board and the smooth side goes toward the inside. Table 1 shows the settings for dipswitch “SW1”.
