9.6 Rotary Switch for Slot Number (Card ID)
Only for: CIFX 50-RE, CIFX 50E-RE and CIFX 100EH-RE\CUBE.
The Rotary Switch Slot Number (Card ID) serves to set the Slot Number
(Card ID) of the cifX Communication Interfaces.
The Slot Number (Card ID) serves to distinguish cifX Communication
Interfaces from each other clearly, especially if more cifX Communication
Interfaces are installed into the very same PC.
The cifX Device Driver up to version 0.94x identifies cifX Communication
Interfaces via its device and serial number. For the device exchange
service respectively a manual intervention is required.
The cifX Device Driver from version 0.950 on identifies cifX
Communication Interfaces alternatively via its Slot Number (Card ID).

0 The value 0 means:
• no Slot Number (Card ID), i. e. the Slot Number (Card ID) is not
used,
• for downwards compatibility purposes,
• characterizes cifX Communication Interfaces not equipped with a
Rotary Switch Slot Number (Card ID);
i. e. these cifX Communication Interfaces are identified via its device
and serial number.
1 … 9 corresponds to the Slot Number (Card ID) 1 … 9
