The default software programmable address is 3.
During instrument initialisation, the node address switches are read. If the switches specify a valid FLOW-BUS
address, i.e. a value from 3 to 99, this value is used.
If the specified address differs from the value stored in the instrument, the new address is saved in memory.
If the switches specify an invalid FLOW-BUS address, i.e. a value of 1 or 2, the value stored in the instrument’s
memory will be used as the address.
2.7 Security and flexibility
FLOW-BUS systems are designed to transport data as quickly and reliable as possible. There are integrated
mechanisms for checking, retry- and error- handling. Modules can be removed from the FLOW-BUS temporarily
(e.g. for service) and can be replaced or re-installed later.
New modules will be recognised automatically by other modules in the system.
FLOW-BUS systems can consist of at least 2 or maximum 126 Bronkhorst High-Tech products.
