Unit ID and Baud Rate/Mode
Selection
Use the SW1 selector to choose a different unit ID
and the SW2 to choose a different baud rate/mode.
If necessary, refer to the diagram on page 2-16 for
the location of these selectors.
Unit ID
The unit ID identifies the liquid handler to Gilson
software packages that can issue GSIOC
commands to the liquid handler.
At the factory, Gilson set the unit ID to 22. There is
no need to change this number unless it is the same
as that assigned to another Gilson device that’s also
connected along the GSIOC.
To change the unit ID:
1 Gently insert a small flat blade screwdriver into
the SW1 selector on the rear panel and turn it.
2 Align the white dot with one of the indicated
numbers. The unit ID is 20 plus the selected
number.
