Automatic Identification Number Assignment
NOTE
Identification numbers are assigned in the order that the AfiFree 155i milk
meters are powered on and detected. Make sure to plug in the Terminal
155i’s cables in ascending order.
1. Plug the Terminal 155i cable into the first Terminal 155i.
Id-- appears on the Terminal 155i display, and identification number assignment
starts automatically.
The AfiFree 155i milk meter enters Test mode, and the Terminal 155i displays
the following indications several times (for about 10–60 seconds):
▪ Terminal 155i software version (for example, 2.05)
▪ Parlor configuration (for example, CF01)
▪ Table version (for example, tbCo)
▪ PuPd (Parameter Update)
At the conclusion of identification number assignment, the AfiFree 155i milk
meter enters Cleaning mode and the display shows CL followed by the stall
number.
In the AfiMen Real Time window (Figure 33) the fill in the icon representing the
milk meter changes from red to grey, indicating that the AfiFree 155i milk meter
has an identification number and communication is correct.
NOTE
The cleaning cycle is not performed at this time. Cleaning mode is the
default mode that the AfiFree 155i milk meter enters after it has been
assigned an identification number.
Do not disconnect AfiFree 155i milk meters during this procedure.
Disconnecting milk meters will cause an incorrect identification number
assignment.
For recovery procedure, see Recovering from a Malfunction during
Identification Number Assignment, below.
2. Connect the next Terminal 155i.
AfiMen assigns the next sequential identification number to the unit.
3. Repeat step 2 until all AfiFree 155i milk meters have received identification
numbers.
Recovering from a Malfunction during Identification Number Assignment
There are two options for recovery:
 Wait at least 5 minutes. Automatic address definition (identification number
assignment) restarts automatically.
 Assign identification number manually (see Manual Identification Number
Assignment, below).
