- Find which parameter you wish to change and what its ID is. For example you might wish to adjust ramp rate of a device.
Note that some parameters are found by your Animus Heart automatically, which you can change the values on. If you wish to add a completely new parameter, please use the 'New parameter' input area. - Set the size of how many bytes this parameter can have. It might be tempting to just choose the first option you bump into and move on with it, but a wrong Data Size won’t work at all and in some cases it can prevent the device itself from working properly.
Unless stated otherwise, all parameters are 1 byte. However, there are some devices that require other data sizes and for that, it’s extremely important to carefully read the manual for the device before doing any changes. - Enter the new value for your setting.
- Save. Animus Home will attempt to configure the node after you click the Save button, and if successful, you will get a notification saying the save was successful.
