Table 7-3. Setting Ae Bus Network Addresses - Advanced Energy MDX II User Manual

®
Advanced Energy
Use the first five mini-switches (A0 to A4) to specify the "address" of an MDXII unit, which a
host computer must include in the message packet it sends. Each MDXII unit in a network
must have a unique address.
Use the next two mini-switches (BR0 and BR1) to specify the serial port's baud rate. The last
mini-switch is unassigned.
Setting AE Bus Network Addresses
Use the S1 switch on the rear of the MDXII unit to set network addresses for the AE Bus
protocol. As indicated in Table 7-3 on page 7-6, five mini-switches are used together: A0, A1,
A2, A3, and A4. In the table, "up" indicates the "on" position.
Note: You must turn the circuit breaker off and then on before the MDXII unit recognizes the
new selection.
