RF-Link Technology Network Communications Module, RFL NCM manual Local CM Address

Page 37

The Address window has two major selections, CM Address Passing and Local CM Address. Both of these settings apply to NMS mode only. Set the local CM address first.

Local CM Address

The “Local CM Address” for the NCM module must be set to the same address as the local Common Module (CM3B, CM3C, CM3R, CM6B, or CM4). The NCM supports addresses from 1 to 999 (see note below) and is set by using the up and down arrows in the hundreds, tens and units boxes as shown in Figure 14. For example, if your CM4 is set to Address 351, the “CM Address” of the NCM must be set to 351. The next step is to set CM Address Passing.

NOTE

The CM3B, CM3C and CM6B support addresses from 1 to 99. The CM4 and CM6B support

addresses from 1 to 500.
