M-GAGE Node DIP Switches
The DIP switches on the M-GAGE board change the configuration of the device. After making any changes to the DIP switches, cycle power to
the device to activate the changes.
In Rotary Switch address mode, the left rotary dial establishes the network ID and the right rotary dial sets the device ID. The wireless
network is restricted to a maximum of 16 devices. Extended addressing mode allows for specific Node to Gateway binding and allows network
expansion for more than 16 devices in a wireless network. For most users, this switch is OFF. For more information on extended address
mode,refertotheSureCross™WirelessI/ONetworkproductmanual,p/n132607.BecausetheM-GAGEhasnoLCD,triple-clickbutton2to

Setting the Node’s Use Switch Settings DIP switch (DIP switch 2) to the ON position allows the Node DIP switches 3 through 8 to be used for
configuration. Configuration settings from the M-GAGE Gateway’s DIP switches are active regardless of the Node’s Use Switch Settings DIP
switch position.
Set the Node’s Use Switch Settings DIP switch to the OFF position to use either the Web Configuration tool to set the parameters or to send
commands to I/O 13 directly from the host system.
