NOTE: If Modbus TCP/IP was selected in Section
for the Field/BMS protocol, skip this
section. Auto-Discovery is NOT used for Modbus TCP/IP.
The S3 DIP Switch for Enabling Auto-Discovery should have been set in
Section

power to the ProtoNode.
Do not
Enable Auto-Discovery when the unit is powered.
When power is applied to a ProtoNode that is set to Enable Auto-Discovery, it will take 3 minutes
to complete the discovery of all of the RS-485 devices attached to the ProtoNode.
The “TX” LED will flash during Auto-Discovery. The “TX” LED will stop flashing when completed.
Once the ProtoNode has discovered all of the RS-485 devices, set the S3 DIP switch to the
OFF position to save the current configuration.
Then turn the power to the ProtoNode back ON. The stored configuration is now loaded.
