Notice

Please note that the DIP switches must be set to the specified positions for the upper computer to connect properly.

Connecting to the Onboard Upper Computer​

  • Turn DIP switches 1 and 2 ON to connect the lower computer to the onboard upper computer via the built-in USB.

  • Turn DIP switches 3 and 4 OFF; otherwise, the connection between the lower computer and the upper computer will be affected.
