Sounds much like some kind of "turnkey" system that automatically
executes a ROM-based boot routine upon power-up. Depending on what ROM
that is (there are several options), you may be able to change the unit
number by moving some jumper or DIP switch on the CPU board (which
module no, in terms of Mnnnn?) or a separate board (ISTR there is
something like a bootstrap/terminator module)? - Maybe I can find out by
the halt address (173326).
Anyway, I'll go home now (currently sitting in my office) and try to
find a procedure that will at least get you up and running again. Maybe
life gets easier if we can identify the modules that take care of your
boot.
I think, however, RX02 bootstraps were pretty long to type in...

Andreas
