Changing the Device Address on a Netlinx Device

Communication and Firmware Update

If the Master does not appear in the Workspace window, check to make sure that the Master’s System Number (from within the Device Addressing tab) is correctly assigned. If there is a problem, use a system value of zero (0) on the Master.

Changing the Device Address on a Netlinx Device

1.Access the Device Addressing dialog (FIG. 19) by either one of these two methods:

Right-click on any system device listed in the OnLine Tree tab of the Workspace and select Device Addressing (from the pop-up list).

Select Diagnostics > Device Addressing from the Main menu.

Device Address (original device value)

Check-Off to verify change

FIG. 19 Device Addressing dialog (changing the device value)

This dialog represents the only way to change the device value of a selected NetLinx device (such as a Modero panel).

2.Select the Change Device checkbox, from the Device to Change section.

3.Enter both the Current and New Device address values for the target NetLinx device.

4.Click the Change Device/System Number button. This configures the specified Master to accept the new value for the NetLinx device and incorporate the information (the system information in the Workspace window refreshes and then displays the new information).

5.Click Done to close the Device Addressing dialog.

6.Select Tools > Reboot the Master Controller to access the Reboot the Master dialog, then click Continue to reboot the Master and incorporate any changes. Allow 20 - 30 seconds for the Master to reboot. The STATUS and OUTPUT LEDs should begin to alternately blink during the incorporation. Wait until the STATUS LED is the only LED to blink.

7.Right-click the associated System number (from the OnLine Tree tab of the Workspace window) and select Refresh System to establish a new connection to the specified Master and refresh the System list with devices on that system.

8.Use Ctrl+S to save your existing NetLinx Project with the new changes.
