WI Series uses a system address to group modules in a system. Modules ignore messages

from modules not sharing share their system address to prevent “cross-talk” between

modules in different systems.
Separate networks with different system addresses can operate independently in the same

area without affecting each other.
The system address can be any number between 1 and 32 767. The actual value of the

system address is not important; however you must use the same system address for all

modules in the same system or they cannot communicate with each other.

Note

You should NOT use a system address of zero.

If you change the system address for an existing project, you must re-program all
modules in the system.

When setting the system address, the WI-I/O 9-L randomly selects a system address;

however you can change the system address if required.
To set the system address:

1. Open the project.
2. Enter the system address:
