3.18.2.5 RS485 Address Set-up via Axis-ID-HEX-Switches on T200 front Panel
A unique RS485 address must be assigned to each T200 in an RS485 network. The two Node ID switches are used to
set this address. Note that a fine screwdriver should be used to set the HEX switches to the appropriate value. Node
addresses start at 1, rather than 0. The node address 0 is reserved for broadcast messages via RS485.

3.18.2.6 RS485 Set-up Parameters
The following port parameter settings are used to communicate with the T200 via the RS485 link:-
§ 9600 baud
§ 8 data bits
§ 1 stop bit
§ no parity bits
§ no hardware control/handshaking.
The T200 has two HEX (modulo-16)
Switches that should be set to the axis
identification number of the T200.
Modulo-16 means that the number range
that can be selected is from 0 to 15.
Numbers in the range 10 to 15 are
represented by A to F. For example, to set
the axis identification number to 29, the
top switch should be set to 1 and the
bottom switch to D, since:-
29 = 16 by 1 plus 13
and
13 = D in the modulo 16 representation.
These switches are located on the front
panel of the T200 and are accessible
without opening the T200. The upper
most of the two switches is the most
significant.
