Naming devices
It is recommended to assign each device in the network a unique name before installation. Because the
network is created automatically when Sintrol Network protocol is used, naming the individual devices
makes it easier to identify them.
To assign a name to a device:
1.
Launch DustTool.
2.
Connect the device to a Windows computer with USB or RS-485 bus.
•
The software automatically detects the interface that is used for communication and connects
to the device.
•
If multiple devices are connected to the same computer, select the device you want to assign
a name to from the list on the left side of the main view.
When connecting with USB, no external power is needed.
If you use RS-485, first connect the device to a power supply.
3.
Navigate to PARAMETERS tab and assign an individual name for the device in the Device Name field.
4.
Click the SAVE button to store the new device name in the device memory.
5.
Disconnect the device.
8.3.2
Wired device network

using either Modbus RTU or Sintrol Network protocol.
