Dip Switches Configuration for SW32PS-RCP.
Every SW32PS-RCP has to have a unique ID from 1 to 10. The ID
should match the External Device number set in the SW32PS.
For example, if you use only one SW32PS-RCP with the SW32PS, the
External Device should be set to 1 and the ID of the RCP should be 01.
(The ID can be seen on the second line of the display during the power

up of the RCP.)
If you use two SW32PS-RCPs with the SW32PS, the External Device

should be set to 2 and the ID of the RCPs should be 01 and 02. (The
IDs can be seen on the second line of the display during the power up

of the RCP.)
