Switch settings - AV204T/AV208T only
The AdderLink AV204T and AV208T transmitter modules are both equipped
with 10-way mini switches to allow quick configuration of various items. For
normal operation in the majority of cases, all switches should be OFF.
Switch 1 is used when upgrading the internal firmware and switches 2 to 10 are
all related to various aspects of serial communications.
Note: All switch settings must be selected before power is applied.

Important
It is essential that the source PC, all AV204T/AV208T modules and all
connected displays are configured to use the same serial communication
settings. The AV200T, AV200R and AV201R modules all auto-sense the serial
configuration and do not need to be set.
When switches SW2 to SW10 are all OFF, the AV module is set to expect the
following serial port configuration: 19200 baud, 8-bit data byte, 1 stop bit,
no parity checking, software handshake.
