Example:
A MAQ20-RTD31 module with serial number 1234567-89 is installed in a system and has
been assigned a Registration Number of 6. Read Current Data from Channels 0-5.
The MAQ20-RTD31 module with s/n 1234567-89 has an address offset of 2000 * 6 = 12000
Read from register addresses 12000+1000 to 1005 = 12000 to 12005 the Current Data from

The MAQ20-940 ReDAQ Shape Software for MAQ20 has a utility which allows the user to reassign
Registration Numbers to I/O Modules in a system. This can be used to rearrange the way I/O modules
are displayed in the software if the Alternate Registration Processes have been used instead of the
Standard Registration Processes. Refer to the
Building a System
,
Maintaining a System,
and
Expanding a System
sections for further details.
ReDAQ Shape Software for MAQ20 presents a graphical representation of the system on the Acquire
panel as shown in Figure 9. I/O modules are displayed sequentially left to right in the order they were
registered. The display does not represent physical position and will not show physical vacant
positions between I/O modules. The system graphic shows a 24 position backbone regardless of the
backbone or combination of backbones used in a system.
