5.6.3Configuration checksum value and date

The Mark III meter maintains a configuration checksum value

(CnfgChksumValue) and associated date (CnfgChksumDate). These values can be used to determine if and when the meter configuration has last changed. In general, the data points included in the configuration checksum consist of the write-protected configuration points and the communication-related configuration points.

To determine whether a particular data point is included in the configuration checksum, consult Daniel MeterLink online help. (There is a help topic for each data point, and each topic indicates whether the data point is one that is included in the configuration. From Daniel MeterLink, click on Help, click on Mark III Registers Reference, select the Index tab, start typing the data point name until the desired point is highlighted, and then click the Display button.)
