Setup

DIP switch settings

The panels have DIP switches that set the panel’s ID number and baud rate. ID numbers

are randomly set at the factory. If you need to change any values, follow the table below.

Switch 8 is unused

Switch 7 is Port Speed:

OFF = 9,600 bps

*ON = 31,250 bps (factory default)

Switches 1 through 6 are to set ID number. (Switches are in binary).

CAUTION!

Each Control Panel must have its own ID number. No panels may have the same ID number.

Disconnect the panel’s power and remove the rear cover to access the DIP

switches. The table below shows the settings available:

Connection

Once the panels DIP switch settings are compatible with the system (i.e. each panel has

its own unique ID number), the panel can be connected to the RS-485 network and

power applied.

The panel has two mini XLR connectors. The mating connectors used are Switchcraft

TA3F. If these are not available locally, they can be purchased from Sierra Video.

The cable entry hole into these connectors is quite small and we have found that Belden

8451 cable fits quite well through the strain relief.

The pinout of the connector is as follows:

Pin 1………RS-485 +

Pin 2………Ground

Pin 3………RS-485 –
