If you later change the device number, remove and reconnect the AxLink power connector to enter the new device number into memory.

AMX has created Dip Switch2 to assist in calculating dip switch position values.

Wiring

The Mio Modero uses a four-pin mini AxLink connector for power and data.

Do not connect power to the Mio Modero until the wiring is complete.

Preparing captive wires

You will need a wire stripper, and flat-blade screwdriver to prepare and connect the captive wires.

1.Strip 0.25 inch (6.35 mm) of wire insulation off all wires.

2.Insert each wire into the appropriate opening on the connector according to the wiring diagrams and connector types described in this section.

3.Turn the flat-head screws clockwise to secure the wires in the connector.

Do not over-torque the screws; doing so can bend the seating pins and damage the connector.
