This software key is linked to the serial number of the module and must be sent to the
module via the debug terminal in Multicon Gyda.
To access the debug terminal, first press “Config” in the top menu, and then press
“Debug terminal”.

5) Now comes the only tricky part of the procedure: To address a particular module
through the debug terminal, one has to take the frame number and slot number and
make a unique two-digit address from them. To do this, multiply the frame number
from the Multicon GUI with 10, then add the slot number from the Multicon GUI, and
finally subtract 1.
Another way of saying this is that the left digit of the address is the frame number,
and the right digit is the slot number minus one, i.e. slots counted from 0 to 9, instead
of 1 to 10 as they are displayed in the Multicon user interface.
The two modules in our example were both in frame 0, but in slots 1 and 5
respectively. T
his gives us the addresses “00” (0*10 + 1 - 1) and “04” (0*10 + 5 - 1).
Before trying to send the software key it could be wise to check that the addressing is
indeed correct. That can be done by sending a single question mark (
“?”) to the
module. In the Flashlink protocol this is known as the “hello” command, and is
basically a who-are-you command. The module should identify itself with the module
