If a satellite controller was accidentally addressed #8, there will 
be a satellite number missing. For example, if satellite controller 
#16 was mistakenly addressed to #8, satellite controller #16 will 
not be present. One way of telling which satellite controllers are 
“on-line” is to go to the Satellite Summary Screen (see Section 
3) and see which satellite controllers the computer recognizes as 
being “on-line.”
If satellite controller #8 was accidentally misaddressed #16, there 
would not be a satellite controller at address #8, and the computer 
will give a “Non-Existing” message for satellite controller #8.
The Other Dipswitch on the SAT 3D
Option 1, 2, and 3 Switches
For the SAT 3D these Options switches do nothing, but on the SAT 
III controller the option 1 switch selects the A to D converter type 
that is on the mother board. With the switch turned OFF, the A-to-D 
curve is selected for the Maxim MAX147 part and with the switch 
turned “ON” for the TI-ADS7844 (BB marked), the software will 
use the special A-to-D curve for the TI-ADS7844 part. 
BATT ON/OFF switch
This switch is used to turn the Battery (Rechargeable Super cap) 
ON and OFF to the SRAM located inside of the SAT 3D.
Local Set Switch
When the LOCAL dipswitch is in the ON position, the TUC 
controllers will operate according to their predefi ned user 
programmed “local set” setpoints. That is, if the TUC controllers 
were programmed by the user to correctly operate when and 
if the WCC III - MCD is off-line or disconnected, but the SAT 
3D controller is still present and communicating with the TUC 
controllers.
Local Set Disable Switch
When the LOCAL SET DIS dipswitch is in the ON position, the 
TUC controllers will operate according to their predefi ned user 
programmed “On” setpoints. That is, if the TUC/RTU controllers 
were programmed by the user to correctly operate when and 
if the WCC III - MCD is off-line or disconnected, but the SAT 
3D controller is still present and communicating with the TUC 
controllers.
Test Switch
The test mode is active only if the TEST dipswitch is in the ON 
position. The word “TEST” can be input as the binary value within 
the SAT 3D. Example of use would be if the user programmed 
the word “TEST” into one of the control point values in the TUC 
controller to check the operation of the TUC controllers with an 
alternate setpoint or schedule, the user could then place the TEST 
switch in the ON position to make this function work without 
physically having to go back to the front-end computer to change a 
setpoint via the computer.
