Provide name for node

 

Up to 32

 

 

 

alphanumeric

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

characters

 

 

 

 

Modbus station address of physical server node.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

These correspond to the ‘devices’ configured in the

 

 

 

 

Node_ID

 

DTPConfig. Thus the Node_ID is not the address of

1-15

 

 

 

the final CCN device.

 

 

 

 

 

The DataLink DTPConfig table maps a device number

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

(1..15) to a bus number (0-239). Use the Node_ID to

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

tell the driver which device to use.

 

 

 

 

Protocol

 

Specify protocol used

 

CarrierDL

 

Port

 

Specify which port the device is connected to the
