6.2 Setting the address without an I/O controller board
If an I/O controller board without an address switch is used, you can set the address of the IF-80x Outdoor
terminal via the RS-485 data cable.
Once the terminal is connected to the controller, it responds with host address 8.
Set the address of the terminal with a Telnet connection via the controller as follows:
Set up the connection to the controller with Telnet.
Use the command
cfg
to retrieve the terminal number.
Example:
cfg
-> address 8 has been set.
Enter this command:
etp <address> -cx
The controller responds with TC-->ET(8)=
Then, the command 34xxyy is sent directly to the terminal.
Example: Address 1:
xx = New address A (uppercase) corresponds to 41(Hex)
xx = New address a (lowercase) corresponds to 61(Hex)
The command for setting address 1 is: 344161
Correspondingly for address 2: 344262 (see table).
Via a warm boot (command 55), the terminal then recognizes its new address:
After approximately 10 seconds, the terminal is ready for operation and can be checked via the cfg
command:
Make sure that an address is not used twice. The address must be within the address range of the
controller (IF-4070).
