4.2.1 RD-24 Settings
The DIP switches are used to set the Modbus address and are also used to change the communication settings. Valid Modbus
addresses for RD-24 are from 193 to 200 where switch 1 is the least significant bit (LSB) and switch 8 is the most significant bit
(MSB). Address 254 is used to place the RD-24 in programming mode. Address 255 is used to refresh the configuration of the
RD-24.
4.2.2 Programming Mode
When the RD-24 is powered with address set to 254, it enters programming mode. The STATUS LED will be flashing RED and
GREEN alternatively every 200 milliseconds to indicate that RD-24 is ready and waiting for the user to enter new communication
settings using 8 dip switches. Using the 8 dip switches, the user can change the communication settings like baud rate and
parity.
When looking at the switches with "Address" marking on top, the switches are defined from left to right.
• Switch 8, switch 7 and switch 6 are used to modify baud rate
• Switch 5 and switch 4 are used to modify parity
• Switch 1 is used to request to save the new settings
• Switches 3 and 2 are unused and should be left in the ON position.
