Every unit in a system has specific information configured for all units regardless of the type
of unit. This information includes:
Unit name – you can use this name to refer to the unit when configuring mappings
from other units.
Unit Address - unique address assigned to the unit. Some module types have two
addresses (e.g. WI-I/O 9-3 and WI-I/O 9-4).
Secondary address - for larger systems, the secondary address allows more than one
transmit-only module to share the same unit address. This only applies to WI-I/O 9-K
and WI-I/O 9-L-T modules.
Protocol Type - protocol used by the WI-GTWY modules only.
