Service Tool and System Manager Keys
Mode Selection Buttons
Both the System Manager and Modular Service Tool are provided with
“Mode Selection Buttons.” These buttons give you instant access to the
specifi c mode desired without having to scroll through several menu
screens to get there. The Modular Service Tool has two extra function
keys (“Confi guration” and “Balance-Test”) that are not available on the
System Manager.

Service Tool and System Manager
Entering Unit ID ( Address)
With both the Modular Service Tool and System Manager, you must
enter the ID (Address) of the controller you wish to program.
Unit Selection
Enter Unit ID#
Selected ID#: XXXX
With the Main Menu Screen displayed, press the function key associated
with the operation (setpoints, confi guration, etc.) you want to perform.
The screen shown above will appear, asking you to enter a unit ID#
(controller address). Put in the ID# of the controller you wish to com-
municate with and then press
<ENTER> .
If this is a Network System (the system has a CommLink), the Unit ID
is actually two separate numbers combined into one value. The fi rst
part of the number contains the Loop Address at which the controller
is located. The second part of the number contains the actual controller
address. See Examples #1 & #2 below.
If this is a Stand Alone System (system without a CommLink), the Unit
ID will be a number between 1 and 59. It is recommended the address
be set to 1. See Example #3 below.
EXAMPLE #1
You would like to view the 3 rd controller on the 5 th loop. Enter “503” as
the Unit ID.
EXAMPLE #2
You would like to view the 12 th controller on the 24 th loop. Enter “2412”
as the Unit ID.
EXAMPLE #3
You would like to view the only controller on the loop. Enter “1” as the
Unit ID. No loop number is required since there is only one loop.
Press <ENTER> after entering the unit ID. If you are using the Modular
Service Tool, you will be taken directly to the fi rst screen for the opera-
tion you are trying to program.
