Addressing<br />

If the device identification is subsequently changed (e.g., when a<br />

radio pulse adaptor for water meters is retrofitted), <strong>Siemeca</strong> devices<br />

will automatically and additionally broadcast a fabrication number.<br />

The fabrication number is a copy of the original device ID. It prevents<br />

any address conflict from occurring on the M-bus (and on the radio<br />

channel), even if the same device ID has inadvertently been<br />

programmed in two different devices. The master has to use<br />

extended selection for that purpose.<br />

However, if a meter is simultaneously registered in two networks or<br />

two network nodes from one network are connected to the M-bus,<br />

there will still be a collision, even if extended selection (without wild<br />

cards) is used. The reason for such a collision is that the meter is<br />

simulated on the M-bus by two network nodes. Thus, the same<br />

device address does, indeed, exist twice on the M-bus.<br />
