Addressing Serial Sensors
When connecting to a Detcon Model 600 or Model 700 Series sensor, the addressing procedure is different.
First, note how the gas sensors are addressed. Each sensor must be set to a different address. The addresses
start from 01 and count up to 16 (hex 10). An example is shown below. To address the gas sensors, set the
following:
CH #
Sensor Address CH # Sensor Address
01 01 09 09
02 02 10 0A
03 03 11 0B
04 04 12 0C
05 05 13 0D
06 06 14 0E
07 07 15 0F
08 08 16 10
NOTE: the CH# is the gas channel number displayed on the Main Display. The sensor address is the
serial ID address set at the 600 or 700 Series sensor.
NOTE: The 1600A Device # is in decimal format, and the serial address switch setting for the 600 or 700
Series Sensor is in hexadecimal format. This means that device number 10 decimal on the 1600A
corresponds to the 600 or 700 Series Sensor at address 0A hexadecimal.
4.1.5 4-20mA Output Setup
This menu entry is used to address Detcon AO-4 modules 4-20mA output.
NOTE: If there are no AO-4 modules being used, do not enter any device and address information on this
screen. Misinformation entered here will cause the controller to generate a ‘No Communication Fault’.
