ID Address Setup
Each Handheld LF Exciter must be assigned a unique ID Address (Neuron ID Number) in order for EIRIS to identify the device. It is vital
that the ID Address assigned to a HHLF does not conflict with the ID Address of any other fixed or handheld LF exciters already
registered in the EIRIS database.
Each HHLF is shipped from the factory with all 8 DIP switches set to
OFF. Remove the battery from the HHLF. Then use the DIP
switches to set the device’s ID address.
The ID address is configured using a binary coded hexadecimal
number. Switches 1-4 (high nibble) are used to set the first
hexadecimal digit while switches 5-8 (low nibble) are used to set the
second hexadecimal digit.
Together, the two hexadecimal digits provide a total of 256
possible ID addresses.
The figure below shows how to set the hex digitals ‘0’ to ‘F’
Below are three examples of addresses set in hexadecimal:
NOTE: Certain ID Addresses are not acceptable and should avoid being used on any HHLF. These addresses are: 13, 35, 4B, 4D, 5C, B8,
D5 and DC. If any unacceptable addresses are used, the exciter’s red LED indicator will continually flash plus its intended cancel
functionality will not work.
