Hi All,

Can anyone advice me how can I use this MASTER_SN keyword to get the serial number from the Master Processor.

What I am trying to do is to store the serial number in a variable which can be displayed to the user so when the device is faulty they can easily get the serial number by looking at the panel.

Can any expert advice me? Thanks in advance!

    I can’t get the keyword MASTER_SN to work and the help file is of no help.

    Try GET_SERIAL_NUMBER() instead.
    DEFINE_VARIABLE
CHAR cSerialNum[16]

DEFINE_START
GET_SERIAL_NUMBER(0:1:0,cSerialNum)

    Thanks alot! Works perfectly. Pretty curious what MASTER_SN actually does since the help explaination doesn't help in anyway. Thanks Joe!
