Note
Each physical APT hardware unit is factory programmed with a unique 8
digit serial number. In order to simulate a set of ‘real’ hardware the Config
utility allows an 8 digit serial number to be associated with each
simulated unit. It is good practice when creating simulated
configurations for software development purposes to use the same serial
numbers as any real hardware units that will be used. Although serial
numbers are 8 digits (as displayed in the ‘Load Configuration Details’
window), the first two digits are added automatically and identify the type
of control unit.
The prefixed digits relating to the PPC001 piezo controller are:
