con gured with their serial number.
OPEN INSTALLATION: loads a previously saved
system so that it can be modi ed or printed.
QUERY MODULES: once the system has been

load the current system con guration so that it can
be modi ed.
DIGITAL MODULE TEST: once the system has
been con gured and connected to the PC via the

created/stored on the PC or loaded using the “QUERY
MODULES” command.
PROGRAM SERIAL NUMBER: once the system has

SIMPLEHOME/RS232 interface, this can be used to
change the serial number of an individual device (if the
module is new, the default serial number is 1).
INFO: provides information on the software version
