Configuring and Connecting AxLink

On all AMX Lighting controllers, DIP switch SW1 sets the AxLink device number. The device number is determined by the value of all the switch position settings. The following table shows the SW1 DIP switch positions and their values.

The device number assignment range is 1 through 255.
