CMM + PRM pair back to the right-most slot, the PRM must be mounted
before the CMM.
So, if a common IP address of 10.0.0.1XY was set for all four CMM + PRM slots
and all four CMM + PRM slots had the HEX rotary switch set to position #3,
then each of the four CMM + PRM slots would have the following IP addresses
assigned:
CMM + PRM Slot 1:
10.0.0.109
CMM + PRM Slot 2:
10.0.0.110
CMM + PRM Slot 3:
10.0.0.111
CMM + PRM Slot 4:
10.0.0.112

However, this option depends on the availability of a DHCP Server being available on
the IMx-M network, and in many process locations this cannot be guaranteed.
