ON Use external or no bias resistor (default)
OFF Use built-in 1.2 kΩ receive bias resistor
Switch 8 is not used.
DGA monitor is wired for 2-wire communication so do not change
the communication mode.
CAUTION!
4.8 Connecting Ethernet
• Shielded outdoor Ethernet cable with a RJ45 connector for the permanent
Ethernet connection
• Protection shell for Ethernet connector
Ethernet connector ETH1 inside the DGA monitor is intended for temporary local
