Set the K-NET IDs
Once the controlled room is ready, that is, the items are all actually installed you need to assign the KNET ID for the
Master and auxiliary devices. The ID number of the master room controller is always 1, auxiliary devices will have a
KNET ID from 2 and on, and the ID numbers allocated to the Virtual devices are 11 and 12. For example, in a
controlled room, the Master controller is
RC-74DL
. One of the auxiliary devices connected is the
SL-10
. In order to
communicate with the
SL-10
, you need to set the K-Net ID on the
SL-10
.
Figure 283: KNET ID – A Controlled Room Setting Example
By default, the following devices’ K-NET ID is set to 2 (auxiliary device) resulting in a communication error with
K-CONFIG
when trying to identify them as master room controllers (K-NET ID 1):
•
RC-62
•
RC-62X
•
RC-63A
•
RC-63D
•
RC-63DL
•
RC-63DLN
In such cases, the devices’ K-NET ID must be set to 1 manually. For more information, see
Section 10.2.1
