COMM ADDRESS
When the HANDHELD is connected to a data collection system or
daisy chained at the end of a chain of RS-485 instruments, the
instrument’s COMM address is used to identify it.
LMS XChange or LMS Express/RT will search for the instrument by
the COMM Address specified on the Communication screen shown
below. COMM addresses range from 1 to 63.
For RS-485 communications, each device on a multi-port chain must
have a unique address.
