DIP switch setting
Before connecting the carousel to the PC, the communication settings must be
checked and, if necessary, adjusted.
To set the DIP switch settings of the carousel:
1. Locate the DIP switch on the left side of the carousel housing
assembly (figure 7).
2. Check and, if necessary, set the switch as needed (figure 8). Table 1
lists the selection options for the switch. Switches 1 through 3
define the platter size. All other settings beside those shown are
undefined.
Switches 4 through 6 define which carousel (up to 8) will be controlled by
the PC.
Switches 7 and 8 should be off for most applications.

Use a screwdriver or a similar tool to adjust the DIP switch settings. A pencil is not advised, as the
graphite can affect the operation of the carousel.
