Changing Conext ComBox Settings
975-0679-01-01 Revision D 3–29
To change device type starting addresses:
1. In Modbus Device Address Enumeration, click for the device type to ensure you
have the current information.
2. Enter the new starting value for the device type and click .
3. Once you have saved all device type starting addresses, there are two options:
• You can keep the existing device addresses, and the new start address will be
applied only to newly discovered devices.
When a new device is detected, the Conext ComBox determines the starting
address of that device type, finds the first unused address for that device type,
and assigns this address to the new device
• The Conext ComBox can perform a device rediscovery to reassign addresses
based on the changed starting addresses.
To reassign new addresses to all devices:
In Modbus Address List, click Reset Addresses. Then, perform a reboot (see
“Rebooting the Conext ComBox” on page 3–15).

are assigned special meanings.
