Changing The Sensor's Number; Changing The Sensor's Address - ITW SIMCO-ION IQ EASY MODULAR SENSOR Installation And Operating Instructions Manual

NOTE! – CLFB with a neutralizer is not possible when the modular sensor is configured in the charging
mode. Ensure Sensor Mode is set to "Neutralizing" for CLFB applications. System Priority will automatically
be set to "Neutralizer" for CLFB applications.

Changing the Sensor's Number

Each Modular Sensor includes a sensor number switch located under the sensor's
rear (longer) cover. Carefully pry the sides of the cover to remove it. Each switch
has four different positions that can be used to link up to four sensors per one
control station Device Address. To hook up multiple sensors to one Device Address,
the switch pack must have the first switch turned on for the first sensor (all other
switches off), switch two turned on for the second sensor (all other switches turned
off), and so on. A label is provided on the inside of the rear cover where the switch
is located, which shows the user how to set the sensor's number; see Figure 17 and
Figure 18. Snap the cover back in place after setting the sensor number.

Changing the Sensor's Address

Once the sensor number is set, the sensor's address can then be set (using the IQ Power Control Station). Below is a
list of steps on how to set the sensor's address properly.
Step 1: When a new sensor is plugged into the Control Station for the first time, it will appear at Address 10. To
ensure proper installation of the new sensor, be sure to unplug or relocate all sensor devices from Address 10 as well
as the desired Control Station Address first. The Modular Sensor can be paired with up to THREE other Modular
Sensors per one Control Station Address. YOU CANNOT PUT AN EXISTING IQ EASY SENSOR BAR AND
MODULAR SENSOR AT THE SAME CONTROL STATION ADDRESS. The images below show the steps for
moving the sensor from Address 10 to Address 3.
