MICROLAB® Carousel User Guide (June 2003)
DIP switch setting
Before connecting the carousel to the PC, the communication settings must be checked and, if necessary, adjusted.
To set the DIP switch settings of the carousel:
1.Locate the DIP switch on the left side of the carousel housing assembly (figure 7).
2.Check and, if necessary, set the switch as needed (figure 8). Table 1 lists the selection options for the switch. Switches 1 through 3 define the platter size. All other settings beside those shown are undefined.
Switches 4 through 6 define which carousel (up to 8) will be controlled by the PC.
Switches 7 and 8 should be off for most applications.
Use a screwdriver or a similar tool to adjust the DIP switch settings. A pencil is not advised, as the graphite can affect the operation of the carousel.
