DIP Switch Settings (-16 Models Only)
The ‘-16’ models incorporate a front panel DIP switch. Use the DIP switch for
emergency configuration or restoration for installations where there is no computer
available for complete radio configuration. Only use the DIP switch for temporary
purposes, for the purpose of a bench test or antenna alignment. Use the Exalt GUI for
complete system configuration, as required before final system deployment.
The DIP switch is only read when the critical factory reset procedure is implemented (see
Radio A/B Configuration on page 38 and Reset to Critical Factory Settings on page 56).
That is, when the RMT button is pressed and held during power up, and held through the
boot cycle (approximately 45 seconds, until LED behavior stabilizes). If changes are
made while the radio is already powered or when power is not applied, the changes are
not executed until a reset is executed.
Figure 50 depicts DIP switch positions 1 through 8, left to right, when facing the front
panel. Also, the switch is considered in the ‘One’ position when it is toggled upward, and
in the ‘Zero’ position when it is toggled downward (default).
Figure 50 DIP Switch Orientation
Table 10 describes the function of each switch when placed in either position.

If RMT button is held during boot cycle (reset to
critical factory defaults procedure), reset to factory
defaults, except IP address and password information,
and make changes as described in this table.
