3.5 RS-422 Serial ID Assignment
In a multi-housing frame installation, each frame must be recognized by the
workstation. The only way to accomplish this is to assign an identification code to
each member of the daisy chain. This is similar to assigning different addresses to
buildings on a street. Follow these steps in order to identify each housing frame in
the daisy chain.
Assigning the RS-422 Serial ID on Quartet-C
1. Locate the ID rotary switch on Quartet-C's rear panel. Refer to Figure 3.5.
2. Using a small flat-edge screwdriver, identify each housing frame by setting a
unique address to each. The available addresses are 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9,
A, B, C, D, E, and F producing a total of 16 ID assignments. Two Quartet
housing frames
cannot
have the same address. However, a Quartet housing
frame, a Symphonie housing frame and a Solo housing frame can have the
same address.
3. Configure the workstation software to reflect the ID assignments of step 2.
