If both Rcv Subnet ID and Xmt Subnet ID are set to 0 the Subnet ID will show Roaming in the 
menu.  This setting will allow a mobile Slave to roam from subnet to subnet and possibly from 
network to network.  
This drawing depicts a Network in which Subnet ID’s are used to force communications.  In this example, 
Repeater1 must talk directly to the Master; Repeater2 must talk directly to Repeater1.  Slaves 1, 2, and 3 
are forced along the direction of the solid lines.  Slave4 may link to the first Master or Repeater it hears.  
The respective Subnet ID diagram and settings are shown below.

Other Information 
Master 
In firmware levels v2.34 and below, the Master uses 0,0. 
Master 
0-F 0-F 
In firmware levels v2.40 and above, the Xmit Subnet ID 
value may be set in the Master. The default settings (F, 
F) actually use 0, 0. The Rcv Subnet ID on the Master 
has no affect on the network. 
Repeater1 
A 0 will force the transceiver to link only to the Master. 
Repeater2 
1 2 
Rcv SubnetID = 1 forces communication through 
Repeater1.  Repeater1 transmits on SubnetID 1. 
Slave1 
0 or F 
Rcv SubnetID = 0 forces communication through 
Master. 
Slave2 
0 or F 
Rcv SubnetID = 1 forces communication through 
Repeater1. 
Slave3 
0 or F 
Rcv SubnetID = 2 forces communication through 
Repeater2. 
Slave4 
0 0 
The 0, 0 setting allows the Slave to link with the first 
Master or Repeater it hears with the correct NetWork ID. 
 
Note:
  With firmware x.40 and above, the Subnet ID default is F,F.  A Multipoint Master with an F,F 
Subnet ID will behave the same as if the Subnet ID was set to 0,0.  A Multipoint Slave with a 
Subnet ID of F,F will not roam from one repeater or network to the next, it will only link to a 
Master or Repeater that has either a Transmit Subnet of 0 or an F,F Subnet ID.

ID 
Option (D) allows a transceiver to be designated with an arbitrary, user selectable, 4-digit number which 
identifies the transceiver in diagnostics mode.
