TIPS
You can automatically assign ID numbers by using the IDST
command with the Repeater control (see "Repeater control"
on page 27).
For example, using the command "IDST001+" automatically
sets the ID numbers, as shown below.
[Example]
ID number: 1
IDST001 +

of the monitor. The monitor is subject to the next
command.
Example:
IDSL0002
WAIT
