CHAPTER 5 USING CLICK SUPERVISOR

Connecting to a Device

Click Supervisor can talk to one device at a time. There are two ways to select which module

to talk to.

Follow these steps if you know the Click ID number of the device:
1 Enter the five-digit ID number in the Click ID text field, either by typing or by using

the arrows to the right of the box.

2 Click Connect. After downloading the communication file, the program will return

you to the Click Supervisor main screen.

Note

You can find the Click ID number of your device by looking at the number beneath
the barcode. The ID number is the last five digits of this number. Each device on a rail
must have a unique number. The number it’s been assigned should be unique, but if
it is not, you can change it after connecting to the device. See that device’s chapter in
Part II of this guide for more information.

Alternatively, you can connect without the ID number:
1 Leave a 0 in the Click ID text field. Click Supervisor will look for all connected devices

on the network.

2 Click Connect. The Device Selection screen will appear (see Figure 5.4). The comput-

er-programmable devices on the network will appear as they are detected. The device

list is divided into three columns: ID shows the ID number of the device, Click shows

the product number of the device, and Description shows the user-defined description

of the device.
