4. CONFIGURING THE DUALCON


!

! WARNING !

DO NOT OPEN UNIT OR ADJUST SWITCHES WITH

POWER SUPPLY, INPUT OR OUTPUT CONNECTED




The DUALCON is an extremely versatile device which can support many different
types of input. The unit is configured by turning the power off, selecting the
internal switch settings required and turning the power back on.

To open the DUALCON, 2 catches just below the outer terminal blocks must be
pushed in gently, one at a time. The front of the case can then be pulled and the
unit will come out of the box.

Press here gently


There are 4 switch banks, S1, S2, S3 and S4, located inside the DUALCON as
shown below:

Switch 10 is OFF
Switch 11 is ON

settings are explained in the next few pages. The diagrams refer to switch
positions 0 and 1, with 0 being OFF and 1 being ON. This is illustrated in the
