Change the Serial Address

A serial address for an InView sign is a number from 1 to 254 in
hexadecimal (01 to FE). All signs leave the factory with a default
address of 1 or 01.

This serial address is resident in the InView display and is used for
RS485 networking. If one of the factory network communications
modules are used (2706-Pxxxx), this serial address is typically left at
its factory default and the network node or IP address is set in the
factory network communication module.

Checkout Procedure

After you install a sign according to the Electrical and Mounting
Instructions, make sure the sign is installed properly by applying
power to it. The following information should be displayed on the
sign.

• Firmware part number and version letter (xxxx).
• Amount of RAM in the sign, (256K).
• Serial address of the sign (a number from 01 to FE or from 1 to

254).
