0x10 Logical/Physical Node

Byte

AIB Field Description

2

Address Element 0x10

3

Data Length: 0x05

4-7

Data[0-3] Physical Node ID (4 Bytes)


Enter the hexadecimal value of the last four digits of the serial number on the chassis or EXNET-ONE card. For the CSP 2090 and CSP 2040, you can find the last four digits on the rear of the CSP.

 

EXNET Connect

Because EXNET Connect is a card within a PC chassis, you assign the physical node ID by:

 

Using the serial number of the EXNET Connect card for the last four digits of the serial number.

 

Set the two most significant bytes to 0x0001.

 

If the serial number of the user’s EXNET Connect card was 0x03AD, in the Assign Logical Node ID message (0x10) define the value of the Physical Node ID field as 0x000103AD.

8

Data[4] Logical Node ID


Enter the ID you are assigning to the node. The default logical node ID of any CSP is 0xFF.

 

When you use message 0x0010 to assign a logical node
ID to a node, you must use the value 0xFF in the Logical Node ID field in the message header. The new logical ID is the value of Byte 8 in the AIB.

 

To reassign a logical node ID, you must bring the EXNET ring out of service.
