4.Understanding the Hardware Rotary Switches

The RangeLAN2 Ethernet Adapter is designed for easy config- uration by setting two rotary switches located on the bottom of the unit. The rotary switches are shown in Figure 9 below. Use the switch setting tool, enclosed in the product package, to change the position of the rotary switches.

The Station/Master Switch allows the user to externally set the unit’s Station Type to either a Master or a Sta- tion within a wireless network. The Ethernet Adapter is pre-configured so that the switch is set as a Station.

The Domain Switch allows the user to set the Domain number to a value between 0 and 9. The Ethernet Adapter is preconfigured to operate using Domain 0. If you want to set the Domain to a number between 10 and 15, you must use the software configuration menu. See Chapter 5 for information on how to access the Ethernet Adapter’s software configuration menu.
