[. . . ] This limitation of liability will be effective even if AMX Corporation or an authorized representative of AMX Corporation has been advised of the possibility of any such damages. This limitation of liability, however, will not apply to claims for personal injury. Some states do not allow a limitation of how long an implied warranty last. Some states do not allow the limitation or exclusion of incidental or consequential damages for consumer products. [. . . ] Suitable for stand-alone or rack mount applications, the AXB-REL8 may be used with AXCESS or AXCENT systems via the four-wire AXlink data bus.

Each device in the AXlink bus must have a unique AXlink device number. If you later change the device number, remove and reconnect the AXlink connector. This enters the new device number into memory. The device number takes effect only on power-up. The device can be 1 of the 255 devices in an Axcess, AXCENT, AXCENT2, or AXCENT3 system. The device number must match the device assignment in the Axcess program. AMX assigns device numbers into the following three segments: !! Cards Boxes Panels 1 through 95 96 through 127 128 through 255 Set the device number by setting the DEVICE DIP switch. The device number is the total of all of the switches in the ON (down) position. The following table shows the switch numbers and their corresponding values. Device DIP switch settings Position Value 1 1 2 2 3 4 4 8 5 16 6 32 7 64 8 128 As an example, the following DIP switch (FIG. [. . . ] Do not connect the optional +12 VDC power supply wire to the control system's power supply side of the AXlink connector (FIG. Checking the installation After set-up is complete: 1. Check cable numbers and wiring, interfaces and sources against supplied documentation. Install tab strips to jumper between shared commons and clip off excess tabs. [. . . ]
