Controller Address Setting

The rotary switches set the hardware address which the
software uses to identify that particular display. Each controller
in a network needs a unique address.

To set the rotary address switches, rotate them counter-
clockwise until the arrow points to the desired number. The
display's power must be turned off and then turned back on to
activate the test mode or to change an address.

Note:

• Setting both rotary switches to address 0 will activate

Test Mode. Turn the display's power off and back on to
activate testing.

• After testing, reset the rotary switches to an address

other than 0/0. The software will not recognize an
address of 0.

Memory Storage Card

Do not remove the memory storage card with power connected to the controller –
critical damage will result.


The controller in the GalaxyPro display contains a 2GB memory storage card. This card stores
the configurations, messages, schedules and fonts created by the control software. The
memory storage card can be moved if a controller needs to be replaced or if the information
stored on it needs to be used on another display. The information on the card will
automatically be recognized and available for use by the display, thus eliminating the need to
reconfigure a display.

To remove the memory storage card, disconnect power and then gently push in on the edge
of the card. The card will spring out of its location on the controller.

To install a memory storage card, slide it into the slot on the side of the controller. Push it
gently in until a click is felt. The card should now be held firmly in the slot.

Warning! The memory storage card is specifically designed to work with the GalaxyPro
controller. Do not attempt to reprogram or move files by inserting this card in a computer or
other device. The card will then no longer function correctly in the controller.
