6.2Setting the ADDR DIP-switches

DIP-switches 2, 3 and 4 set either the reply source (in Hardware mode Table 3) or machine number (in Software mode Table 4).

Table 3: Hardware Mode Reply Source DIP-switch Setting

Reply Source	DIP-switch
	2	3	4
Reply is taken from output 1 (default)	ON	OFF	OFF
Reply is taken from output 2	OFF	ON	OFF
Reply is taken from output 3	OFF	OFF	ON

Note: When there is more than one VP-14xlattached to the RS-485 bus only one unit can have a reply source set, all other units must have DIP-switches 2, 3 and 4 set to OFF.

Table 4: Software Mode RS-485 Machine Number DIP-switch Setting

Machine Number	DIP-switch
	2	3	4
1	OFF	OFF	OFF
2	ON	OFF	OFF

6	ON	OFF	ON
7	OFF	ON	ON
8	ON	ON	ON

When there is more than one VP-14xlattached to the RS-485 bus each unit must have a unique machine number.
