12.5 Device configuration
In the
DEVICE CONFIGURATION
basic settings can be made. The device desig-
nation can be used as print header in a log
printout or to facilitate assignment in a a net-
work. In network operation the device address
is indispensable. The baud rate can be
adapted for interoperation with external de-
vices. The display backlighting can be set to
any one of three levels. The atmospheric pres-
sure setting can be adjusted to compensate
certain sensors in particular at different alti-
tudes. The default value for hysteresis for
alarm relays can also be modified. The num-
ber of channels and the cold junction tempera-
ture are displayed for the purposes of device
monitoring.
12.5.1 Device designation
In the Device designation FUNCTION (see Manual 6.2.4) you can enter any
text up to maximum 40 characters in length (see 10.5). This text will then ap-
pear in the main menu, in the print header for a measuring operation, and in de -
vice lists (software).

12.5.2 Device address and networking
All ALMEMO
devices can be networked together very easily thus enabling the
®
user to centrally acquire and record measured values from several measuring
instruments - even if these are located far apart (see Manual 5.3). To communi-
cate with networked devices it is absolutely indispensable that each device
should have its own baud rate setting and its own dedicated address; this is be-
cause only one device should respond per command. Before starting network
operation ensure therefore that all the measuring instruments involved are as-
signed different device numbers. The device address for this system is set by
means of a code switch (6d) located on the rear of the device.
The Device function in the
address setting, then the device type and version number, and then if applica-
ble an option code (see Manual 6.10.11).
Device address with type, version, option : Device: 00 5690-2M V:6.05XY
Example : Address: 00, Type: 5690-2, Version: 6.05, Option: XY
In network operation consecutive numbers between 01 and 99
should be used; this ensures that device 00 is not addressed unnec-
essarily in the event of interruption to the power supply.
