The bridge address format for DH+ is as follows:
Station Address Valid DH+ Entries
ll.rrr.ss
ll local bridge address
rrr remote bridge address
ss station address on remote DH+
0 – 77 (octal)
0 – 376 (octal)
0 – 77 (octal)
or
You can shorten the offlink address by combining the remote bridge and remote
station addresses into one three-digit number. The system reads only the first digit of
the remote bridge address, and adds the two-digit remote station address to produce a
shorter address that still points to the same node.
ll.rss
ll local bridge address
rss combined remote bridge address and
remote station
address
0 – 77 (octal)
0 – 376 (octal)
ll
ll local bridge address
1 – 63 (decimal)
For bridge address configuration examples, refer to “Planning
DH+ or ControlNet Communications” in Chapter 2, “Planning
Applications,” of the PanelBuilder 1400e Configuration Software
for Windows User Manual.
