Chapter 2: SETUP
The 232XS5 is set up using an eight-position dipswitch and a
three-position set of jumpers. This dipswitch is used to set the
communication format, port configuration and expansion switch
address. The jumpers are used to set the smart switch/port
combiner mode, to enable/disable the enhanced features and to
enable/disable Expander mode. To change the settings on the
switch, remove the power from the unit, and remove the screws (4)
from the bottom of the 232XS5. The dipswitch is located on the top
of the PC board (side with LED’s) and is labeled “SW1.” The other
dipswitch, labeled “SW2” is used to set the second character of the
preamble. After the switches and jumpers have been set to match
your requirements, you can put the unit back together. Table 1
shows the settings for dipswitch “SW1” and Table 2 shows the mode
settings for “JP6” jumpers.
