Station Number ( UNIT NO.) Selector
A maximum of 32 W Type(Wire) Link Units can be connected in a network.
In the W Type (Wire) Link System, each W Type(Wire) Link Unit must be
assigned a unique station number (UNIT NO.) in the network.
Notes:
•The station number(UNIT NO.) must be assigned within the range of 01
to 32.
•The stations which are set for P/W PC Link Mode must be assigned station
numbers(UNIT NO.) in the range of 01 to 16.
•Duplicate use of the same station number(UNIT NO.) in a network will
cause the ERROR 2 LED to turn ON and the units will not be able to
communicate.
• If erroneous station numbers (00 or 33 to 99) are used, the ERROR 1 LED
will turn ON and the units will not be able to communicate.
