4. Addressing
4.1. Addressing of keyboardCUE-S (serial number up to
CS0174.0128) and keyboardCUE-S /w
The ADDRESS of the keyboardCUE-S and keyboardCUE-S /w can be set in the range 0 to 9 by the
firmware. Standard keyboards have address 0, addresses 1 to 9 are delivered on a special order.
The BUTTON_ID transmitted by a panel and BUTTON_LED_ID (tabletop model keyboardCUE-S only)
are numbers used in the programming for button and bargraph identification. Both values depend on a
button position and it depends on a keypad ADDRESS too. Both values are calculated according
formulas
BUTTON_ ID = Offset + Button Code
BUTTON_LED_ID = Offset + Button Code
Offset = 32 * ADDRESS
The lowest BUTTON_ID is generated by a button in the upper left corner the highest BUTTON_ID is
generated by a button in the lower right corner - see example for ADDRESS = 0 on the picture below.

SW9
1. Unscrew two screws on bottom side of the keyboard and remove bottom cover.
2. Push switch SW9 on PCB bottom side; backlight LED’s are switched Off to indicate Set
Address Mode.

buttons to toggle address bits to requested value of ADDRESS (see examples on the picture
below).
4. Push switch SW9 to save ADDRESS to non-volatile memory and to enter keyboard Standard
Mode - backlight LED’s are switched On to indicate Standard Mode.
5. Assembly the control panel.
4.2.2. Troubleshooting
Flashing backlight LED’s means non-volatile memory ERROR. Try Power OFF – Power ON sequence
to restart device and set ADDRESS again.
4.2.3. Display ADDRESS
Press and hold Button 1 while powering On. Button LED’s indicate ADDRESS in binary code –
Button 1 bit 0, Button 2 bit 1, .... After 10 sec keyboard continues normal operation.
