MasterID

General

Type

EF

Devices supporting the parameter

Encoder network (Synchronization master)

Traceable

Yes

Functional Description

Specifies the MasterID for the multicast group. Using this parameter, you can provide the master with a unique address for sending cyclic information. This is necessary whenever there are several Synchronization masters in a single network or when other network slaves are using the default multicast address 224.100.0.0. Here, the MasterID is the third position of the multicast address.

Example

That means, if the MasterID is 123, the multicast address would be 224.100.123.0.
