Reading and Understanding a Soft Address

Lock boards, main vend boards and validator boards (UIBs) have a soft address made up of three parts. These parts include the unit number, board number, and board type.
Device Number — The C-unit is always Device 00. The first R-unit in inventory is Device 01, the second R-unit is Device 02, and so on.
Board Number (C-unit) — The first board found in a C-unit by the CPU during a Device Search is Board 00. The second board found is Board 01, the third is Board 02, and so on.
Board Number (R-unit) — The UIB connected to the external data bus is always Board 00. The next board is Board 01, the third is Board 02, and so on. Board 00 establishes its own inventory of boards inside the R-unit and reports this inventory to the CPU at the time the R-unit is added.
Board Type — A lock board is Type 01. A UIB (validator board) is Type 02. A main vend board is Type 03.
