11.3.1 General

The micro-switch can be used for several functions. The function it triggers may be depending on the present field

bus. Use the micro-switch always in combination with the LED’s to prevent errors. The following functions can be

triggered with the micro-switch.

Set instrument to default installation address/MAC-ID

Read bus-address/MAC-ID and baud rate

Change bus-address/MAC-ID and baud rate

Read control mode

To read or change settings by the micro-switch and LED’s, the number

can be separated in “tens” and “units”. The “tens” is the most left part

of the number. The “unit” is the most right decimal of the number.

The easiest way to set an address / baud rate is by using the rotary switches on the instrument (if

present). Remember that the rotary switch setting overrides software setting at start-up if the switches

are not in the soft-address position.
