7.4.2.2 Setting the regulator ID
The serial number and firmware version are features of a voltage regulator.
The regulator ID is only used as an additional unique feature for identifying
the voltage regulator when communicating with the TAPCON®-trol software.
The regulator ID consists of a sequence of digits (maximum 4 digits).
The regulator ID ensures that the link from the TAPCON®-trol software to a
particular voltage regulator is established. During online communication, the
TAPCON®-trol software installed on a PC establishes the regulator ID and
compares this with those already stored. During online communication, the
TAPCON®-trol software installed on a PC establishes the regulator ID and
compares this with the regulator IDs already stored. This enables accurate
assignment of data and parameters to a particular voltage regulator.
