6.6 Serial address
The DimSTAT PC address which shown on the
output screen as A:XXX is the unique number which
is used by network to identify each dimmer unit for
the purpose of reporting status information and for
transferring data between the dimmer unit and PC. If
a dimmer unit is removed from the network and
replaced by another, DimSTAT will automatically
prompt for an update of configuration information
when the PC number is entered. DimSTAT identifies
the new unit on the network, and prompts the
operator to download the previous characteristics file
from the PC to the new dimmer. The PC number is
associated with a unique factory serial number
which is permanently stored in the dimmer. An
Autoreload function is also provided to reinstate the
PC address after a factory reset.
