4.1 

Initialising the instrument

Only in a Nexus Network

At power on, the instrument will perform a self test. The display will
first show all segments, then the software version number and the
Nexus Network ID number.

At first power on after installation, you will be asked to press 

SET

(PrESkey). This will give the instrument a logical ID number on the
Nexus Network.

To initialise the instrument, press 

SET

 on all installed digital

instruments, one at the time.

Note: Always wait for the text ”Init OK”
to be displayed,  before you press SET
on the next instrument!

The Server automatically gives the first unit ID number 16, then 17
and so on. The order in which you press 

SET

 is the same order as

the instruments will be given a logical ID number on the Nexus
Network.

The example shows that the instrument version number is 2.0 and
the given logical ID number is 16. On the lower line, the bus master
version number (4.8) and ID (0) is displayed.

4.2 

Re-initialising the instrument

If two instruments by mistake have the same ID number, this can
cause disturbance and block the information on the data bus.

To re-initialise the instrument, press 

CLEAR

 during the power up

sequence when version and ID numbers are displayed.
The display self test is then re-started on all instruments and you
will be asked to press KEY on each instrument as explained above.

Note! If you do not succeed to re-initialise, we suggest
you disconnect all but one instrument with the same ID
number, then repeat the above procedure.
