3.2 Addressing the pLAN
Once the controllers are connected over the pLAN network, the controllers and the terminals must be addressed.
There is a range of 32 possible addresses (binary logic). As a result, a total of 32 controllers and terminals can be
connected over the pLAN network.
The pLAN network will not work if the same address is shared by two components!
The controllers and displays must be addressed as illustrated below:
3.3 Changing the controller address
The controller pLAN address can be changed, when creating a rotation loop, in page pL1 of the Parameters menu,
following the diagram shown above.
3.3.1 Addressing the HMI terminals
The value of the factory-set address is '17'.
In order to be able to configure the terminal's address, it must first be powered via the telephone connector.
To enter configuration mode, press buttons   and

(even if the terminal is already on) simultaneously for at least
five seconds. The mask of the screen below appears and the pointer flashes at the top left corner:
• to change the terminal's address (display address setting) press the

button once. The pointer will move to the
address field (02).
• using the  buttons, select the desired value, and confirm by pressing the

button again. If the value selected is
different from that stored previously, the mask of the screen below is displayed and the new value will be stored in the
display's permanent memory.
