ADDRESSING THE DEVICES ON THE KS-BUS
This is a fundamental step when starting up our system. Ksenia introduces an innovative concept for addressing its
devices: all of them come from the factory already preset with a serial number composed of 6 numeric digits. The
code distinguishes every single device univocally. The serial number can be read both through the
basis
software
and the
ergo
keypad, as follows.

The replacement is not allowed.
This new approach for addressing peripherals has many advantages:
• Protection from substitution (each peripheral being different from any other and then easily distinguishable);
• Impossibility in creating conflicts (same peripheral address);
• Reduction of the possibility of making mistakes in large systems.
If the system has only one peripheral per type, it is very simple: it is advisable to leave it unassigned, then from the
keyboard its assignment will be univocal.
The only care to be taken when configuring and programming the devices is the one of correctly associating the
serial number of the device to its actual position in the system, especially when there are more peripherals of the
same type. For example, if you decide that keypad1 with serial number 000012 will be used in the lounge and
keypad2 with serial number 000020 is to be used in the garage, then they will have to be installed physically in the
lounge and in the garage as planned before; otherwise the two devices will operate in reverse order.
In the following table some examples about where and how to find the serial number are shown.

In order to program and use the keyboard correctly, it is necessary to know the USER and INSTALLER codes from the factory that have to be
changed later on: USER: 147258 • INSTALLER: 123456
