This will flash all of the Phase buttons once on that particular unit, and you will hear the units internal relays click as this happens.
Please note that if you wish to change a units ID with the dip switches, you will need to power cycle the unit after doing this so that the new ID number is resent to the software.

>This is usually set to COM 3 (depending on your computers particular hardware configuration).
Please note the communications port has been set, and when the unit has been switched off and back on again, the 4081 unit must switched on before the software is started.
