F-28 1788-CN2FF Installation Example

12. Double click on the device and you'll get a window like this.

This screen shows the name and the node address assigned to
the device, and lists a Device ID assigned by the manufacturer. It
is a unique identification. You or the FF protocol may have
assigned the Node Address. Because the Link Master device with
the lowest node number becomes the Link Active Scheduler,
you may want to adjust Node Numbers after they have been
automatically assigned. You may also need to resolve Node
Number conflicts if a new FF device was previously assigned a
node number that another device is now using.

If necessary, you can change the FF address of a device by right
clicking on the device and selecting Set Address. Then, enter the
desired address in the window, and click Set.
