A system for controlling a plurality of function-specific modules in a high-volume electronic printing apparatus involves assigning a unique connection code to each physical connection between a pair of modules in the system. In order for a central control system to identify specific modules when the system is operating, each module is assigned a unique identification code which is a concatenation of the connection codes for the connections to other modules. Each module in a large system is thus identified by a unique code determined by its neighboring modules.
