Setting the Device Instance (Coupled MAC and DI)
Device Instance:
A Device Instance number identifies a device within an entire building, therefore giving it a unique number or Address,
much like a telephone ext. number. A building can have one telephone number, but all the extensions have a unique
number to identify them. A Device Instance number would work the same way and must be unique throughout the building.
The Device Instance number is user set through the LCD Thermostat or the LCD-SETUP tool.
Below is a table defining how a Device Instance number is obtained.
NOTE: Each device on a network segment must be set to run at the same speed or baud rate.

TECH TIP
When using a PCV controller and no LCD
thermostats are on site, you must purchase
a setup tool in AIO known as a LCD-SETUP
and use this to configure the PCV controller.
Remember all settings are stored in the PCV
Controller and not the thermostat.
