Device identification and addressing

FOUNDATION Fieldbus identifies the device using its identification code (device ID) and
automatically assigns it a suitable field address. The identity code cannot be changed. The
device appears in the network display once you have started the FF configuration program
and integrated the device into the network. The blocks available are displayed under the
device name.
If the device description has not yet been loaded, the blocks report "Unknown" or "(UNK)".
