Had a customer ask how to change the Motor Controller ID Number.

 

You can only change one Motor Controller at a time.

 

You will be using to of the two of the Read_ID and Change_ID.

 

When you have the PRIZM power on, and the Motor Controller connected you would run the Read_ID program.

Then the Serial Monitor should give you a reading of 1.

Then you would do the Change_ID and change the line below to the number you want in this case 2.

  exc.setExpID(2);          // Change the ID# of the controller to "2". Valid ID's supported by PRIZM are 1,2,3 and 4.

Then you execute the program and then power off the PRIZM, this is important it must be powered down in order to recognize the change.

Then you would run the Read_ID program again and it should show the number has change.

At this point you would need to label the Motor Controller so that you would no that this one is ID =2.

Then you are ready to change the next Motor Controller number by following the process again.
