Replace:
The replace function has three purposes. First it is used to replace an existing module with a
spare. Secondly it can be used to readdress an existing module. In either case all settings
associated with that module will be preserved.
When selected the Replace Module screen will be displayed as shown in Figure 8. To replace a
module in the inventory enter the module number and the address to be assigned to the new
module, and press submit. The input/output configuration of the old module is assigned to the
new address.
Figure 8 – I/O Module Replacement
Restore a Modules Default Address
The replace function can also be used to restore the default (address 99) setting of a module. To
accomplish this connect the module with the unknown address to an SkyRouter Automation
controller. Using the Add function add the module with any address. At this point the module will
not function properly but will appear in the module line up with the address assigned. Next, using
the replace function replace the module having the made up address with the text
default
in the
address field. The module will be assigned an address of 99 and after a program reload will begin
functioning at that address. Once this is accomplished the module can then be readdressed
(again using the replace function) to any address desired.
