+= Details of how to program a node-id box = 
+
+You will need a computer, a cross over cable and a test ORBIT node. This setup is currently in place in the ORBIT lab room
+
+* Step 1: Connect the computer to the node's CM interface using cross-over cable and configure the node's IP address to 10.0.0.200 netmask 255.0.0.0
+
+* Step 2: Connect the node ID that you want to program to the node ID connector socket on the front of the node
+
+* Step 3: Connect power to the node and wait for the node ID box to start blinking
+
+* Step 4: Telnet to 10.1.222.222, this is the default CM IP for a new node ID box
+{{{
+  telnet 10.1.222.222
+}}}
+
+* You will see a CM prompt like this
+{{{
+ *** WINLAB ORBIT CHASSIS MANAGER CONSOLE *** 
+
+ type ? for help
+
+}}}
+
+* At the prompt, type eprom and hit enter, you should get the following screen
+{{{
+Usage:  eprom NodeType p1 p2 HostBaud
+where NodeType: 1=GridNode, 2=SupportNode, 3=SandboxNode
+      p1 p2:    p1=x, p2=y GridNode coord (x,y)
+      p1 p2:    p1=100, p2=SupportNode ID
+      p1 p2:    p1=101...199 Sandbox ID,  p2: XXXXYYYY SandboxNode coord (X,Y)
+      HostBaud: Host Console Baud Rate (1...5):
+                1=9600, 2=19200, 3=38400, 4=57600, 5=115200
+      Example: eprom 1 5 6 4   (all numbers decimal)
+
+}}}
+
+* Step 5: As an example to program node1-1 belonging to sandbox 5, you will use the convention
+  3 - for sandbox domain, 105 for IP subnet of sandbox5, 17 - for first node of sandbox and 1 for baud rate
+{{{
+
+eprom 3 105 17 1
+
+}}}
+
+* Step 6: This should give you an OK message, with a request to ''reboot'' the node ID box
+
+* Step 7: Type ''reboot'' at the node ID console
+
+* Step 8: You can kill the telnet session and now log in using the new node ID's IP which is 10.1.105.17 (for the above example)
