OneWire and Node ID

CANopen devices have a node ID; however, some Topcon sensors (e.g.,GR-i3 and GR-i3F) can change node ID to achieve Main or Auxiliary (Aux) antenna location designations.
A Node ID of 116 is Main and a Node ID of 120 is Aux.
GR-i3 and GR-i3F receivers can receive location information via OneWire. OneWire uses cables and harnesses with a specific wire grounded within the system to designate antenna node ID.
GR-i3 and PS-i3 can receive location information through a pole mount designation set within the MC-X Machine Control Gateway. The GR-i3F may also be assigned to Aux via the Machine Control Gateway.
