DIP Switch Configuration
This section describes the functionality associated with the various DIP switch settings available on
the PRO-DP8 panel. These switches determine the front panel functions and should not be thought
of as user accessible.
DIP Switch Functions (1-8)
The panel functions are set by the configuration of the DIP switch, located on the back of PRO-DP8
panel. The factory default is for all the switches to be in the Off position.
The following table lists the operational assignments for the PRO-DP8 DIP switch.
Always disconnect the PROlink cable from the PRO-DP8 to remove power before
changing DIP switch settings. Once the switche(s) are set, reconnect the PROlink
cable to the PRO-DP8 to provide power to the panel.
On power-up, the pushbutton LEDs momentarily light in sequence until the Channel 1
LED remains on.
