Figure 4-4 — Addresses window

		The transmitter must be addressed before it will accept and respond to
		commands. The addressing operation routes setup information to a particular
		unit on a network and enables command responses. Once the transmitter is
		addressed, it can accept an unlimited number of commands. If a different unit
		is addressed, the TPS150 ignores subsequent commands until it is addressed
		again.
		The factory-installed default address is 97, but this number can be changed.
		The transmitter can also take commands after receiving a broadcast address of
		00, but it does not send responses. Broadcast addressing is for multiple units
		on a network serial line in half-duplex mode.
6.	Click and drag on the slider or click the scroll up ( ) or scroll down ( )
