measurements.

Each sensor on a
multipdrop network
must have a unique ID
number. If you change
this field, the Sensor
Information window
reflects the change.
Enter an ID if your
controller or backend
system was originally
configured for an
RTMS model X3
sensor and is still
expecting data in
RTMS protocol.
Change this if you
think you'll find it
useful in identifying
the sensor later.
