    The exact procedure may differ based on which system configurator is used, so here is the procedure that works for communication with a Reyrolle relay using the Siemens DIGSI system Configurator Setting up a new RA24 These are the steps that are used to convert a bare board into a RA24. These steps will normally be done automatically by the production test jig, but it is worth documenting them here.
