1. Setting the Station Number(UNIT NO.)

• A station number(UNIT NO.) can be selected using the two Station Number(UNIT NO.) Selectors.
The number must be within the range of 01 to 32 and cannot be duplicated on that network.
• A station which will be using P/W PC Link functions should be given a station number within the range of 01 to
16.
Notes:
• If an invalid station number(UNIT NO.) is assigned in a network, an error will occur and the ERROR
2 LED will flash. When an error has occurred, data communication will be disabled.
• If a station number(UNIT NO.) is assigned to more than one unit in one network, an error will occur
and the ERROR 2 LED will turn ON.
• You may leave station numbers(UNIT NO.)unassigned, if you wish.That is, you can assign station
numbers(UNIT NO.) arbitrarily e.g. 1, 2, 4, 9, 21.
How to set the station number(UNIT NO.)
Turn the dials to the desired station number(UNIT NO.) with a phillips screwdriver.
The upper dial is used to set the tens-digit and the lower dial is used to set the ones-digit. Be sure to enter both
digits of the station number.
