Method for identifying and initializing devices which exchange data with each other and with a data processor in a communication network

摘要

In a method for identifying and initializing devices that are connected to a communication system for data exchange with one another and with a data processing unit, the data processing unit checks whether the node number of a device in the logon of the device is unique for the communication via the communication system and if a node number is found that is not unique, the data processing unit requests that the device which transmitted to a non-unique node number change its node number to a unique node number.
