D. Set the RS-485 Address
• Use DIP switches 1-6 (shown in Figure 1) to set the RS-485 network address.
Figure 3 Set the RS-485 address
Note: You must set the RS-485 address even if you are not using RS-485.
• Keep DIP switch 7 off.
• Set DIP switch 8 off to get an IP address from the DCHP server.
• Set DIP switch 8 on to set a fixed IP address using the TX3 Configurator software.
For more information and the complete list of RS-485 addresses, see LT-980, the TX3 Card
Access System Manual, on the Mircom website (www.mircom.com) or the USB flash.
E. Connect the Card Reader
