NI Connection and Firmware Updating
2. Locate the Device field (A in FIG. 35) and enter the new value for the NI Controller.
This value must fall within a range of 0 - 32767.
3. Press the on-screen Start Identify Mode button.
This action causes a previously red *Not Active* field to now display a green
Waiting...Press Cancel to Quit.field.
This green field indicates that Studio is waiting to detect the device value of the NI
Controller associated with the ID button on the target NI.
4. Press the target NI unit’s ID button to begin process of reading the current device value of the
NI Controller and then assigning it to the new value entered in step 2.
Once the swap has been successfully made, a red Successful Identification Made field
appears.
The previous Device value and associated System number of the targeted NI Controller
are then displayed below the red field, as an example Previous D:S=32002:1, where
32002 was the previous device value of the Controller (D) and 1 was the on-board
Master’s System value (S).
Resetting the Factory Default System and Device Values
1. Access the Device Addressing dialog (FIG. 34 on page 46) by either one of these two methods:
Right-click on any system device listed in the Workspace and select Device Addressing.
Select Diagnostics > Device Addressing from the Main menu.
2. Click the Set Device/System to Factory Default button. This resets both the system value and
device addresses (for definable devices) to their factory default settings. The system
information (in the OnLine Tree tab of the Workspace window) refreshes and then displays
the new information.
3. Click Done to close the Device Addressing dialog.
4. Click Reboot (from the Tools > Reboot the Master Controller dialog) and wait for the System
Master to reboot. The STATUS and OUTPUT LEDs should begin to alternately blink during
the incorporation. Wait until the STATUS LED is the only LED to blink.
5. Press Done once until the Master Reboot Status field reads *Reboot of System Complete*.
This dialog represents the another way to change the Device value of the NI
Controller. This ID mode section of the Device Addressing dialog can be used only by
Masters with an ID button (which apply to all NI-Series Masters).
By setting the system to its default value (#1), Modero panels that were set to
connect to the Master on another System value will not appear in the OnLine Tree
tab of the Workspace window.
For example: A Modero touch panel was previously set to System #2. The system is
then reset to its default setting of System #1 and then refreshed from within the
Workspace window. The panel will not reappear until the system is changed (from
within the System Connection page on the Modero) to match the new value and both
the Master and panel are rebooted.
