Safe Addressing
A safe address is an address given to a devices during
commissioning, the value of which is stored in the non volatile
memory within the electronics module of the device, the Safe
address is therefore carried with the device.
A Safe address can be given to any device on loop circuit:
¨
Individually
¨
in a consecutive range
¨
or an entire loop can be safe addressed
To safe address a device
Press Menu On/Off button and then [Set Up] and then
momentarily press <etc> to select [Set Up] and then
momentarily press <etc> to select [Device], now type in the soft
address of the device and then select [Loop], now type in the
loop on which the device resides and then select [Safe] and
finally type in a safe address and select [Enter].
"
It is efficient to safe address devices using the
commissioning tool. If safe addressing a range of devices
it is quicker to do using the controls at the panel.
To convert from safe to soft address
If for any reason the safe address given to a device is not
required and the device needs to be converted for soft
addressing, then:
Press Menu On/Off button and select [Set Up] and then
momentarily press <etc> to select [Set Up] and then
momentarily press <etc> to select [Device], now type in the
safe address of the device and then select [Loop], now type in
the loop on which the device resides and then select [Safe] and
finally type in 0 the safe address and select [Enter]. This will
convert the device back to soft addressing mode.
