1 Connect to an external ‘desk-top’ universal AC input power supply

2 Slide-in units held in place by latches to prevent accidental disconnection in mobile installations

3 You can access the dipswitches without removing the unit from its rack, as they are located inside the panel. You can access them by unfastening the front panel via the slide action latches (item 1 in Figure 7)

4 These dipswitches have a dual purpose. There are two groups of 256 network addresses (512 in total). When the panel type is ‘XY’ S1 to S8, select network addresses 1 to 256. When the panel type is ‘Single bus’ (determined by the setting of S2-1 – refer to section 6￿ .2.1), S1 through S5 serve a dual purpose. S1 through S5 select the OUTPUT bus controlled by that panel and S1 through S5 select the 5 LSBs of network address 257 through 512. When the scan determines that the panel is a single bus type panel, S1-6, S1-7 and S1-8 are the three MSB’s of the panel’s network address. This scheme puts a limit of 8 single bus panels that can be set to the same output
