LPB / system
• Creation of systems
• Wide field of use with a smaller number of unit versions
• Plants can be extended in a straightforward manner
The LPB is used as a communication basis for generating a system with additional
ALBATROS™ controllers or controllers of other manufacture.
4.50 LPB device address
The device address and the segment address are used as destinations in the bus
system (similar to a postal address). To ensure communication, each device must be
correctly addressed.
1. Press the operating line selection buttons to select operating line 140.
2. Press the + / - buttons to enter the device number.
Setting range Unit Factory setting
0...16 Increment 1
Entry of the device address is especially important when using combinations of units, or
in a system. The addresses classify the controllers within a segment.
Entry:
Address Effect Example
0 Standalone Single controllers
1 Master (LPB)
− Controllers with master function
− Cascade master
− Heat generation master
− Consumer master in the respective segment
2...16 Slave (LPB)
− Controllers with slave function
− Other heat generation controller
− Heating circuit controller
− D.h.w. controller
The device addresses should be assigned in consecutive order in accordance with the
controllers connected. It is not permitted to assign an address several times within a
bus segment, since this would lead to communication errors. Each segment must have
a device as a master (address 1).
For more detailed information about the addressing of devices in a system, refer to
”Local Process Bus (LPB), Basic Documentation, System Engineering” (document no.
CE1P2370E).
