Changing the serial address

An ALPHA sign’s serial address is a number from 0 to 255 in hexadecimal (00 to FF). An ALPHA SA sign’s serial address is a number from 000 to 255 in decimal (000 to 255.) The address is used to identify the sign in a network of signs. All signs leave the factory with a default address of 0 or 000.
