Set these thumbwheels to designate the node address of the 1779-KP5 for
both Data Highway II and Data Highway Plus. The top thumbwheel
represents the most significant digit (MSD). Set this digit to zero, since
the highest address available to a Data Highway Plus node is 077 (octal).
The bottom two thumbwheels do not go past the digit seven because the
address must be an octal number. Each node on your network must have
a unique address.

Important: The 1770-T3 industrial terminal (for the PLC-2) cannot
communicate with Addresses 000 through 007 and Addresses 100 through
107 (octal). If you have PLC-2s on your Data Highway II network, you
may not want to use these node addresses.
