HMS Anybus X-gateway User Manual page 23

Configuration 3-9
Note: The J1939 interface is configured during X-gateway initialization. If the
network configuration is changed, the module must be power cycled before the
changes will take effect.
Setting the J1939 NAME
The J1939 Device NAME dialog is shown in Figure 3-2.
Figure 3-2 J1939 Device NAME Dialog
The NAME is a 64-bit value that must be unique for every module on a given
J1939 network. The meaning and format of the data contained in the NAME value
is defined in the J1939-81 specification.
The NAME value can be set 2 ways using the J1939 Device NAME dialog:
directly or by component. To set the NAME value directly, simply type the
desired value of each of the 8 bytes in hexadecimal using the top fields of the dia-
log. Each component of the NAME value is broken out and displayed in the lower
fields of the dialog; components can be edited individually using these fields.
Pressing the Apply button will update either set of fields to reflect the changes that
were made.
