D4S front and rear panel

1. Label Space Use this area to fix a label identifying the selection that has been made. For example, the knob could switch between audio sources for background music: CD player 1 and 2.
2. Device selection LED Single-color green LED illuminates to indicate which of the four devices wired to the NWare D1V device is active.
3. Device selection switch Momentary push button. Pushing the switch selects a device wired to the NWare D series device. The button operating mode (switch or trigger mode) is controlled by DIP switches.

   Switch mode

   In switch mode, each button is independent and does not function as part of a mutually exclusive group. Each button sends alternate on and off commands with each button press. The LED indicates the on/off status for each button separately. This feature is used primarily to turn on specific audio functions, such as a mute, or in conjunction with level controls, switches and simple audio routing.

   Trigger mode

   In trigger mode, each button transmits a momentary signal when pressed. This signal is a one-shot command that the software recognizes as a trigger. A trigger has no on or off state, it is simply a momentary logic signal. When a trigger has been activated, the button LED will illuminate and stay illuminated until another trigger in the same group is activated. The buttons work in the same way as radio buttons in a software application. They can be used as preset selectors in all products, and additionally, as a router (source select) control, in some products. Refer to the product manuals for more information.

   Note: If the LEDs start flashing, this means no NWare D series device in the NWare project has been assigned the device ID set on the physical device.

4. Mounting Bracket Single-gang (1G) mounting bracket for installation into standard NEMA 1G switch box.
5. DIP Switch Eight individual switches that assign button mode (switch 1), device ID (switches 3-7) and EOL termination function (switch 8). Switch 2 is reserved.
6. RJ-45 Connectors Dual RJ-45 connectors for installation into D Series RS-485 network. These connectors are wired in parallel and include data and power supply connections. The recommended cable is UTP Category 5 (CAT5) or better.
