Device Identification
An Echelon device has a unique mechanism to identify itself, the Neuron ID, which is obtained during
commissioning.
There are two ways of getting the Neuron ID: with a Service Pin or manually.
Service PIN
The service pin is used to identify the device at commissioning. By pressing simultaneously the “Up” button and
the “Down” button located on the keypad interface of a VT7300 device, the program ID and the Neuron ID
(LonWorks Unique ID) contained in the device are transmitted to the commissioning or service tool. The Status
LED will blink when the device accepts the Service Pin command.
