Operator units:
Permanently connected operator units (and hence, alarm receivers) are addressed by their Device
Name.
Operator units (and hence alarm receivers) with a point-to-point connection (PTP connection) are
addressed with a Remote Area Site identifier and their Device Name. For example:
B=fff for permanent connection
B=kkk:aa for point-to-point connection (PTP connection)
Adjustments are required during the addressing process so that there is no conflict between the names
of operator units and the plant or room management designations.
Permanent and point-to-point connections:
For alarm receivers, the address syntax (see further below) indicates the type of connection: permanent
or PTP connections.
Desigo PX automation stations with half-routers must know the Remote Area Site designators of their
remote alarm receivers to enable an PX automation station to resolve the remote alarm receiver
designator.
