SE Controllers) or Model 493.43 System I/O Board (for Aero ST

as desired.

When operating in the automation mode, the controller name may
appear in the title bar of the Station Builder and Station Manager
applications.

in its title bar. The controller name appears on the title bar of
the Station Builder application in the same way.

Independent Aero ST controllers work as described above.

In an Aero ST controller network (which consists of master
and dependent controllers), Station Builder and Station
Manager applications display only the name of the master
controller in their title bars.

Note:

If you change the Controller Name you must re-register
the Controller. When changing the original Controller
name, use the Unregister Controller control.
