Test the communication interface by issuing the *IDN? and/or *IDN?
commands, which will return, respectively, the Controller’s or specific module’s
model and firmware versions without affecting output.

To control a specific module, use its address identified by its location in the
ReFlex Power™ Mainframe. Each Mainframe houses 12 address locations, one
for each single-width slot; the first slot on the left is numbered 1; the last on the
right is numbered 12. Additional mainframes continue the count; i.e., the
second Mainframe addresses are 13 through 24 from left to right (Figure 2-15).
The address for a double or triple-width module is always the rightmost slot
position that it occupies. Hence, a triple-width module covering slots 17, 18, and
19 is identified by address 19.
A ReFlex Power™ system is extendable up to eight (8) chassis, with the first
mainframe chassis (primary) configured as output only; any intervening chassis
would have both input and output inter-chassis connections, and the last would
be configured as input only. Refer to the ReFlex Power™ Operation Manual
(M380056-01) for additional information on multiple chassis interconnection
requirements.
