5.3.3.2. Addressing on power supplies in the multi-unit system
Whether the issue is a single device or a multi-unit system of TopCons,
the device addresses are used to allocate the TopCon to its logical po-
sition in the multi-unit system
The device address comprises an upper address range (AH) and a
lower address range (AL).
During the configuration of the related address range, the device type
and the master-slave principle play a role, along with the type of config-
uration.
Configuration of the addresses via the rotary switch
The device address is configured via the rotary switches.
Default values are AH: 0; AL: 0
