Inmany network ing environments, the node ID may also be referred to as the addres s. On EPL
networks, limitations apply to the node IDs that may be selected:
HNodeID 0 is res erved for special purposes and cannot be used.
HSetting the switches to select a node ID between 1 and 239 causes the node to become a
‘controlled node’, a node that will accept commands from the manager node.
HNodeID 240 is reser ved for the EPL manager node (for example Nex tMove e100) so cannot
beused by MicroFlex e100.
HNodeIDs between 241 and 255 are r eserved for special purposes and cannot be used.
Forall other c ommunication channels suc h as CANopen and USB, the node ID is set in software.
Each channel can have a different node ID, select ed using the Mint WorkBench Connectivity
Wizardor the Mint BUSNODE keywor d. See the Mint help file for details.
