3.2 How to Execute Self-configuration
There are two ways to execute self-configuration.
 Turning ON the Power After Setting the DIP switch “CNFG”
Set the DIP switch “CNFG” on the Machine Controller to ON, and then turn ON the power to execute self-configura-
tion. The setting of the DIP switch “INIT” causes some differences in the results of self-configuration.
After execution of self-configuration, be sure to execute Save to Flash to save the results of self-configuration in the
Machine Controller.
 For MP2100, MP2100M, MP2500, MP2500M, MP2500D, and MP2500MD Machine Controllers, the DIP switch is
not commonly used for self-configuration. Use an MPE720 as described below to execute self-configuration.
 Using an MPE720
Start the Engineering Manager of MPE720 and open the Module Configuration Window. Select Order - Self Config-
ure All Modules from the main menu of the Module Configuration Window, or select a module for which self-config-
uration is to be executed in the Module Configuration Window and then select Module Self-configuration.
 Refer to 3.4.1 ( 1 ) How to Open the Module Configuration Window for information on how to open the Module Con-
figuration Window.
The results of configuration will be as follows.
