Establishing Communication with Controllers

4.2.2 Network Addresses

Your goal is to assign each controller on the network a unique address between 1 and 254.

This can be accomplished using the buttons and display on the front panel of the controller as described in the manual supplied with each controller.

If you will have fewer than 254 controllers on the network and plan to use the CN8-SW function of automatically detecting devices on the network, use the lowest address numbers first. The software will begin polling with address 1 and proceed up to 254 unless you stop the polling process. You can save time getting your network up and running if you stop the process once you know the CN8-SW system has found the controller with the highest address number you have assigned.

Assign the addresses and go on to 4.3.
