INTELLIGENT PA SYSTEM HARDWARE CONFIGURATION:
Each MA-200, including the one inside the MA-100, must be addressed before it is connected and
turned on. A 5 position dipswitch or a rotary switch (plus a 2 position dipswitch) on the back of each unit
is used to set which address the PA stations and Local Outputs on each MA-200 will respond to. With up
to 32 MA-200Õs attached to the system, the following are all of the possible settings for these switches:

The ÔOPENÕ position on each switch is towards the top of the case.
The MA-100 is usually addressed as #1, but can be set for any address desired so long as it doesnÕt
conflict with any MA-200.
The four serial ports on the MA-100 can each be configured to different baud rates using wire wrap
