DIP Switches:
The four switches on S1 DIP switch are used to configure the operating mode of the LP2500 controller. DIP
switches are read on power-up except where noted. Pressing reset switch S2 causes the LP2500 to reboot.
After initialization, enable default User Name (admin) and Password
(password). The switch is read on the fly, no need to reboot.
