expose the slender opening on the underside of the unit. The slot exposes the AXlink DIP
switch on the internal AI8 circuit card) (FIG. 6).

2. Use a slender screwdriver to change the internal DIP switch positions from their default value
of 129 (FIG. 6).
The DIP switch value set on the underside of the controller is the value assigned to the internal
AI8 card (default 129). The touch panel is default set to 131. When the unit is connected to a
Central Controller and queried for its addresses, it returns a value for both the touch panel
(default 131) and the AI8 card (default 129).
