Configuration and Installation

Setting the Device DIP Switch

The 8-position DEVICE DIP switch sets the AXlink identification number for the AXB-CAM. Make sure the device number matches the number assigned in the AXCESS software program.

When you set the first device number on the DEVICE DIP switch, the AXB-IRS4 automatically assigns the next three device numbers. For example, if you set the DEVICE DIP switch to 97 (1+32+64=97) as shown below, the AXB-IRS4 sets ports 1 through 4 as device numbers 97, 98, 99, and 100.

The following table describes the values on the DEVICE DIP switch.

Position	1	2	3	4	5	6	7	8
Value	1	2	4	8	16	32	64	128

To reset the AXB-IRS4 with a new DIP switch device number, disconnect and connect the AXlink or 12 VDC power connector on the AXB-IRS4.

If the AXB-IRS4 is wired for RS-232 communication, set all eight DIP switch positions to the off (up) position.

Setting the Carrier/BAUD DIP switch

The CARRIER/BAUD DIP switch sets the carrier signals and baud rates for the AXB-IRS4.

!DIP switch positions 1 through 4 set the carrier/NC signal option for ports 1 through 4.

!DIP switch position 5 is used for RS-232 or PCTouch mode.

!DIP switch positions 6 through 8 set the baud rate for RS-232 data communication. FIG. 2 shows the DIP switch positions.
