Special address 126 -Set Slave address:
If a slave with node address 126 is detected during the network scan, the
PROFIBUS Master Configuration window will display the address in red color. It
will not be possible for the user to adopt the slave to the configuration since it is
not allowed to exchange data with devices having this address. The check box in
the Select column will be grayed out.
To be able to adopt a slave with address 126 the user must first assign a valid
address by clicking the icon next to the node address. By doing so the Set Slave
Address dialog box is started.
Note that the Old slave address is preset to a value of 126 that is not editable (grayed out).
If the Slave is in the configuration already then it will not affect the addressing.
