I have 5 PIR-s connected to a single IPS spur. These modules haven't been comissioned with Cortex and they have their address set to FFFE (default). Is there a way to configure them with Cortex without physically disconnecting the modules from the spur, reconnecting them one by one and allowing plug-and-play functionnality to detect them (the boxes are recessed behind a plaster ceilling, so it's quite difficult to physically manipulate them).
When I try to connect the whole spur, Cortex detects a PIR with address FFFE and the plug-and-play functionality gives it a regular (non-default) address, but no other PIRs are detected.
I suppose that plug and play probably sends a reflex packet to change the address of all the nodes having address FFFE, and all those nodes get the same NID.
Is there a way to get around this without disconnecting individual PIRs??
Thanks for Your input
