Setting the Group ID

The four-position GROUP ID DIP switch sets the identification number to enable communication
between the wireless devices and the AXR-NWS. Each AXR-NWS must have a unique GROUP
ID. The maximum number of control devices connecting to an AXR-NWS is 16. The Group ID
DIP switch setting must be identical on the AXR-NWS and all ViewPoints communicating with it.
For example, if the AXR-NWS GROUP ADDRESS DIP switch is set to 128 and the GROUP ID
DIP switch is set to 1, the ViewPoint devices 128 - 143 must have their GROUP ID set to 1. If the
AXR-NWS GROUP ID number does not match the ViewPoint GROUP ID, they will not
communicate properly. The table below lists the Group ID DIP switch values.
