Configure your system with forethought. You will need to designate a physical address for your micro before you create a definition.

This tab contains the basic information on the micro, such as its address and connection type. When configuring a micro, COMPLETE THIS TAB FIRST. Other tabs display, depending on the selections you make on this form.

Upon creation, the micro is offline. Before the host will communicate with the micro, you must change it to online using the Micro Utility Form. You will not see any badge or alarm transactions until this is done.
