when one terminal is used to control several fcd-2s connected via modems, node addresses are assigned to each fcd-2. the node addresses, in the range of 1 through 255 are assigned during the first session, by means of the command node. use the following procedure to establish a session with a specific fcd-2.

    if you are using a multidrop configuration, do not assign address 0 to fcd-2 connected to this terminal.

    1. press the [enter] key three times.

    2. type n, space, the desired fcd-2 node address and another space, then type the desired command and press [enter]. for example, with node address 234, type:

    node[sp]234[sp] 'command'[enter]

    if the addressed fcd-2 does not use password protection, it will immediately execute the command.

    if the addressed fcd-2 is password protected, you will see the prompt:

   

    3. type again the node address and then the password. for example, with node address 234, type:

    n[sp ]234 [sp]password[ sp ] ' password ' [enter]

    if the password is correct, fcd-2 will execute the command. otherwise, you will see enter password].
