3.2.2 Assigning Addresses
Before the entire system is wired, each drive will need to connect individually to the host computer
so that it can be assigned a unique address.
Once the drive has been connected to the PC as described above, launch the Step-Servo Quick
Tuner software. Apply power to the drive. If a drive has already been configured, click the Upload
button so that the Step-Servo Quick Tuner settings match those of the drive. Click on “Step 1:
configuration” button and select the SCL (Stream Command) mode. Under control mode setting,
Node ID settings, The numerals 0..9 or the special characters ! “ # $ % & ‘ ( ) * + , - . / : ; <= > ?
@ may be used as addresses. Make sure each drive on the network has a unique address. On
a 2-wire network, the Transmit Delay may also need to be set. Most adapters work well with10
milliseconds. Once the address has been assigned, click Download to save the settings to the
drive.
