3.6 Selecting the IEEE Address
SW3-1 through SW3-5 select the IEEE bus address of the interface converter
when in the IEEE Peripheral mode. These same switches are used in the IEEE
Controller mode to select the address of the device that will be controlled.
[Refer to Chapters 5 and 4respectively for additional information]. The
address is selected by simple binary weighting, with SW3-1 being the least
significant bit and SW3-5 the most significant. The factory default is address 10.
Listen Only is a special type of Peripheral operation. In the Listen Only mode
the interface converter accepts all data transmitted on the bus, ignoring any
bus addressing, and transfers it out its serial port. The interface converter is
set to Listen Only mode by setting its address to 31. If the IEEE address is set
to 31 in the peripheral mode, it is adjusted to 30.
