CAUTION: To set the address on this device, disconnect it from the loop, or ensure that the loop to which it is connected is both disconnected from the panel and shorted across both pairs of + and - terminals at the device. Failing to take either of these steps may change the address programming of previously configured sensors on the same loop.
Follow the instructions in LT-6146, the MIX-4090 Device Programmer Installation Manual, available on http://www.mircom.com. If left at its factory setting, the panel will report this device as having no address.
The connector for the device programmer is inside the unit above the addressable module, as shown in Figure 6.
