6.1.3. Board Address

168AO Screen
Board Address:
16AI: 1
8RO: 1
4AO: 1
168DO Screen
Board Address:
16AI: 1
8RO : 1
8DO : 1
The Board Address screen shows the current
board address settings for the MultiFlex. The
numbers shown here are read directly from the
network address dip switch settings on the
board. This screen does NOT allow you to
change the board numbers with the Hand-Held
Terminal; this must be done by setting the net-
work address dip switches. Refer to Section 3.3.,
Network ID Numbers, for dip switch setting
information.
The MultiFlex will not display address num-
bers that do not pertain to the model type. In
other words, a MultiFlex 16 will not show fields
with the 8RO and 4AO address numbers, and an
88 or 168 will not show a field for the 4AO
address number.
If an 16AI, 8RO, or 4AO field that is sup-
posed to appear on this screen is not shown, it is
because the board number dip switches for these
board types are set to "0." Set the 8RO and 4AO
dip switch settings to a unique number (refer to
Section 3.3.2., Numbering for MultiFlex Combi-
nation I/O Boards). The Hand-Held Terminal
should update within a few seconds and show
the 8RO and 4AO board numbers.

6.1.4. Settings

Settings:
Baud: 9600
In 1 Pulse? NO
This screen shows the baud rate dip switch
setting for the board, and the position of S3
switch #8, which is required to be UP for all
RMCC (all versions), BEC (all versions), and
BCU (versions below 2.0) units if pulse accumu-
lation inputs are being used. This screen does
NOT allow you to change the baud rate or pulse
settings with the Hand-Held Terminal; this must
be done by setting the dip switches. Refer to
Section 3.4., Setting the Baud Rate and Section
4.1.1., Connecting Sensors to Input Boards for
more information about these dip switch set-
tings.
