Abstract:
According to certain embodiments, a system comprises a primary unit and a plurality of secondary units each having a unique unit number. The primary unit is configured to communicate a command to each secondary unit with instructions to reply during a time window. The primary unit is also configured to receive a reply communication indicating the secondary unit's unique unit number from at least one of the secondary units, and determine an address to assign to the replying secondary unit based at least in part on the received unique unit number.

Claim (Index 20):
The computer readable medium of  claim 17 , wherein the logic, when executed by the processing circuitry of the primary unit, is further configured to cause the primary unit to perform steps comprising:\n receiving a first reply communication from a first secondary unit; performing a cyclic redundancy check (CRC) on the first reply communication; detecting an error with the first reply communication based on the CRC; determining not to assign an address to the first secondary unit in response to detecting the error with the first reply communication; communicating a second command to the first secondary unit, wherein the second command comprises a second instruction to reply during a second time window; receiving a second reply communication from the first secondary unit in response to the second command, wherein the second reply communication passes the CRC and indicates the first secondary unit's unique unit number; and determining an address to assign to the first secondary unit, the address determined based at least in part on the first secondary unit's unique unit number received in the second reply communication.
