The LED Device Identify Feature When working online with a Pro64 network, the LED Device Identify feature causes the front panel LEDs on a device to flash to help identify it, a function that is useful during system setup and firmware updates, especially when multiple devices of the same type are installed in the same location. The LED Device Identify feature is available from the Device menu or via a rightclick on any row of the Network Overview. To activate the LED Device Identify feature for one or more Pro64 devices, first select the device(s) in the Network Overview.

Click the column heading to sort devices by type. Numeric ID Each Pro64 device in a network can be identified with a number (up to 3 digits). This unique ID is stored in the hardware itself and can only be changed from the Pro64 Network Manager application. When new Pro64 devices are added to a network they do not have a Numeric ID associated with them. In the Network Overview and Device Windows they are displayed as (New Device). Devices without Numeric IDs are identified as New Device To set (or change) a Numeric ID for a Pro64 device, select a device (6416m, 6416o, etc. ) in the Network Overview and choose edIt numerIc Id. . .
