SETRA DIGITAL PRESSURE GAGE

2.2.2.Required 3rd Party Configuration

The M370 Gage must be configured using the operator’s manual and the front panel push buttons so that its serial port settings match the FieldServer settings.

The following notes have been extracted from the operator’s manual.

The Setra Digital Pressure Gage is capable of interfacing with a wide variety of computers or other devices through the RS-232 serial communications port. Devices which are connected this way must be set up to communicate at the same rate of speed. To change the baud rate of the gage (the rate at which the gage sends information out through the port) so it agrees with that of the device connected to it, use the following procedure.

1.Press CONV until the gage is displaying pressure units (make sure it is not displaying in "ft" or "meters").

2.Press the "-"key.

3.Enter "5555". This is the baud rate access code.

4.Press SETUP. The display will read "CAL br".

5.Enter the baud rate. Choose either 300, 600, 1200, 1800, 2400, 3600, 4800or 9600.

6.Press SETUP.

The baud rate is factory set to 2400. If you change the baud rate and wish the gage to retain the new rate after power is removed and restored, repeat steps 2-6 a second time.
