8. INPUT MODES 
When  the  SmartDriveDuo-30  is  powered  up,  RUN  (Left),  ERR  (Left),  RUN  (Right)  and  ERR 
(Right) LEDs will running once. After that, the input mode will be read from the DIP switch 
and retained as long as the driver is powered. If you wish to change the input mode, you will 
need to change  the setting on the DIP switch and press the  RESET button, or power cycle 
the driver (turn it off and turn it on again). 
SmartDriveDuo-30 supports four different types of input mode: 
1.  RC (Radio Control). 
2.  Microcontroller Analog/PWM. 
3.  Serial Simplified. 
4.  Serial Packetized. 
The DIP switch settings for each mode and the function for input pin are summarized on the 
table below.
