ADDRESSING THE SS-L
To address an SS-L, it is necessary to invoke the onboard configuration tool embedded in
the SS-L firmware. The three-button operator interface of the SS-L and specific key-code
combinations are required to address the SS-L.

Press the or to configure the desired SS-L address between 1 and 16.
5 After the desired configuration is complete, allow the onboard configuration tool
to time-out. The LCD screen will revert to the standard operator display.
Do not skip SS-L addresses. When the host controller encounters the first blank
(unprogrammed) SS-L it will be interpreted as the last SS-L and communication with higher
addresses will not occur.
When addressing SS-Ls be mindful of the maximum number of SS-Ls supported by the
host controller.
