 MAC – The Media Access Control
address (MAC address) is a unique
identifier for your controller.
 Serial Number – Your controller’s serial
number
 Server – If your controller is connected
to BaseManager, this field shows the
server that the controller is connected
to.
Note: You can configure the controller to connect to an alternate BaseManager server.
Refer to Using an Alternate IP Address to Connect to BaseManager on page 78.
 Reg. PIN – When your controller connects to the BaseManager server, the server
detects the connection and checks for an associated account. If no account is found, the
server sends an authorization/registration PIN to your controller. You will use the PIN to
create your BaseManager account.
Note: The PIN is case sensitive. When you write down the PIN, be sure to copy the case
of each letter exactly as it is displayed.
