# Identification

It contains parameters identifying a transmitter in a network.

Flags – transmitter configuration flags.
Distributor code – Distributor's code,
Device address – transmitter’s address in the network. For a HART network, the address may have values form 0 to 15. The transmitter must have a device address set to 0 for operation with current output 4-20mA and during calibration. Address other than 0 is reserved for digital mode operation (multidrop),
Number of preambles – an be from 3 to 20. Higher values gives more time for modem to set appropatiate communication parameters, but also will lengthen the time needed for a modem to establish connection with a transmitter. Default is 5.
Registration number – it is an integer with a maximum value of 16777215, it can be used e.g. example for a register,
Sensor number – serial number of a sensor.

Content of fields, in which value can be entered, can be transfered to the transmitter with a command Write parameters.
The command Read parameters allows to read only those parameters, which are shown in the above window.
To read all transmitter parameters, you should use the command Read configuration.
