Matching the Position
Both DPX2 and DX sensor packages can be daisy chained. The PXE
can indicate each sensor or actuator's position by showing the sensor
port where the environmental sensor package is connected as well as its
sequence in a sensor daisy chain.
To identify an environmental sensor or actuator through its
position:
1. Click Peripheral Devices in the PX Explorer pane, and the Peripheral
Devices page opens in the right pane.
2. Locate the Position column, which shows one or two pieces of
position information - the sensor port number and, if the sensor
package is DPX2 or DX, the sensor or actuator's location in a chain.
For DPX, the PXE only displays the sensor port where it is
physically connected.
For example, if a DPX environmental sensor package is
connected to the SENSOR port numbered 1, its Position column
shows "Port 1."
Note: For the PXE devices with only one SENSOR port, it always
shows 'Port 1.'
For DPX2 and DX, the PXE displays the sensor package's
position in the chain in addition to the sensor port number.
For example, if a sensor or actuator is located on the second
sensor package in the sensor chain connected to the SENSOR
port 1, its Position column shows "Port 1, Chain Position 2."
