To modify the parameter "Change the RS-485 identifier {8002}", use the buttons UP or DOWN to reach the
"BASIC SETTINGS" menu.

Press SET to enter the menu. Use the DOWN button to reach the parameter "Change the RS-485 identifier".

Press SET to change the value. The value will be displayed in inversed colours.

Use the UP and DOWN buttons to change the value into the correct address for the solar charge controller
connected to the RS-485. Confirm the new value by pressing SET. Wait five seconds for the new address to
be taken into account. If there is a problem with the new setting the screen of the RCC-02/-03 flashes red.

Disconnect the solar charge controller with a valid address and connect the next solar charge controller to
the RS-485. The address assignations can continue without having to leave the menu.

Once all solar charge controllers have been assigned an address, they can be interconnected as in figure 4.1.
To confirm that the right number of solar charge controllers have been detected, control the display value
"Number of MPPT" (see table 5.1). The Xcom-MS is ready to use.
