Basic settings
In this section we can find:
•
MAC address of the LAN interface of the unit
•
Device ID on the ReteMatic Network (automatically assigned during Network startup)
•
Domain Name (default: ReteMaticGrid)
This parameter identifies a specific ReteMatic network and it is the only parameter that can be
modified. In case of a single ReteMatic network the default value (ReteMaticGrid) can be used, but
in case of multi-Head configuration a different Domain Name must be assigned to each ReteMatic
branch in order to minimize the potential interference among units belonging to different branches.
In any case, the Domain Name
must be same in the Head Unit and in all the Field Units
connected to it
in order to let the units see one another, since units with different Domain Name
are not able to send data between each other.
The Domain Name string can have up to 20 ASCII characters; quote and double-quote characters
are not supported and Extended ASCII characters are not recommended.

Node type
In an ReteMatic topology, one node (not necessarily the Head Unit) takes the role of Domain Master
(DM), while the others act as End Point (EP). This role assignment is automatically performed at
startup and cannot be manually modified.
