    MAC-PLUS 10. Configuration The Mac Plus settings can be adjusted in two ways: • By means of DIP switches; • Via the MasterBus network (by means of a remote control panel or an interface connected to a PC with MasterAdjust software); see chapter 14 and 15. Once a DIP switch has been set to On, the related setting cannot be configured via MasterBus.

    For central monitoring and control of the connected devices Mastervolt offers a wide range of panels which show full status information of your electrical system at a glance and a push of a button. Four different panels are available, from the small Mastervision compatible 120 x 65 mm LCD screen up to the full colour EasyView 5.
  • Page 26 This gives the MasterBus network a high degree of flexibility for extended system configuration, not only today, but in the future as well! Mastervolt also offers several interfaces, making even non-MasterBus devices suitable to operate in the MasterBus network. How to set up a MasterBus network Each device that is suitable for the MasterBus network is equipped with two data ports.
  • Page 27 MAC-PLUS As with all high speed data networks, MasterBus needs a terminating device on both ends of the network. The electric power for the network comes from the connected devices. At least one device in the network should have powering capabilities (see specifications). One powering device can power up to three non-powering devices.
