The number that the HMI is assigned to largely depends on how many HMIs are connected to the electrical package.
Setting the HMI number configures the communication between that HMI and the ECPM03 Board.
If only one HMI is present, it must be set to HMI #1 for proper operation.
Systems with multiple HMIs will require each HMI to be assigned its own number.
Example: A system with two HMIs will have one HMI assigned as HMI #1 and another HMI assigned as HMI #2.
