Device Address Code

This a a hold-over from HS2. The address code is an X10 feature. HS2 was X10-centric, so it labeled devices in the format of an X10 House Code, Unit Code format. If you don't use X10, you probably have no need for it at all, though some plug-ins may populate it. It's vestigial, like the tail on a human or fingers on a bat.Mike____________________________________________________________ __________________

This code can be used to get a desired "sort order" on the Device Management Page.

I almost think I need to figure out how to file all like sensors together somehow. But then, there's the high possibility I wouldn't like that and have to revert everything. I think i've spent more time re-arranging devices than anything else.
