Setting the MAC ID

The MAC ID is set with DIP switches 1 to 6: Switch 1 is the lowest value bit 20 and switch 6 the highest value bit 25. The bit is set when the switch is ON.

You can select the MAC ID from the range 0 to 63.

Switch on the Bus Coupler

When you have set all the DIP switches to the desired configuration you can switch on the Bus Coupler. Any changes you make to the switches while the system is in operation will have no effect until the next time it is switched on.
