ABSTRACT:
A method for setting addresses in a system including a controller for controlling transmission and reception of information signals, and a connection apparatus for connection to a succeeding connection apparatus for transmission and reception of the information signals between the controller and the succeeding connection apparatus, including the steps of supplying a first address setting signal from the controller to the connection apparatus, processing the first address setting signal in a predetermined manner in the connection apparatus to generate a second address setting signal, and providing the second address setting signal selectively to one of the controller and the succeeding connection apparatus. In another class of embodiments, the invention is a method for setting addresses for controlled apparatuses connected in series with a controller, including the steps of supplying an address setting signal from the controller to a first controlled apparatus, processing the address setting signal in the first controlled apparatus to generate a second address setting signal, processing the second address setting signal in a second controlled apparatus to generate a third address setting signal, and feeding back the third address setting signal to the controller through a signal line.
