ID Mode (Device Addressing dialog)

ID Mode places the entire system on hold while it waits for an event from any NetLinx device in the named system (for
example, a button push on a NetLinx Touch Panel, or the ID button on NetLinx Masters). The device that generates the
first event is the device that gets "identified". Once a device has been identified, it will be set (or changed to) the Device/
System Address specified. This is useful when the current address assignments are unknown.
Use the ID Mode options in the Device Addressing dialog to place the program in ID mode, and to set or change the
Device Address (Device and System ID numbers) for a NetLinx device (FIG. 256).
