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 Reset to
Critical Factory Settings). 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.
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 63 DIP Switch Orientation
Figure 7 describes the function of each switch when placed in either position.
Figure 8 provides the standard factory defaults for the ‘-16’ models.
Note: Models with the Access Security management feature ignore DIP switch
configurations after any reset. See the Access Security Page
.
