SETTING UP AN ORION
The Orion has some options which are chosen when it is ordered (see page 4) and many which you can configure yourself with hardware links, or soft-configure using data commands. The best way to set up the soft-configurable options is to connect the supplied Graphical User Interface (GUI) to the unit, although it is also possible to use your own equipment using the commands described in Appendix A (page 21) and Appendix B (page 27).
Hardware Link Settings
In order to change the links, open the case using the four screws, one at each corner, to access the PCB.
You will need a fine-tipped soldering iron to make links, and a removal tool or aid to break links.
vThis equipment is made with lead-free solder to comply with the RoHS directive, and you should use lead-free solder when making links.
