7.3GROUP 0, FUNCTION 2 - COMMUNICATION BAUD RATE

BAUD RATE: Speed at which data is transmitted between device and remote computer. The rate programmed into the meter must match the rate used by the remote polling device.

Valid Baud Rates are 1200, 2400 and 4800. When entering a baud rate, the last zero is omitted. Therefore, three digits and a leading zero (or blank) must be entered. Example: To enter a baud rate of 2400, enter 0240.

ÖTo change the COMMUNICATION BAUD RATE, follow these steps:

NOTE: PRESS MAX/MIN/LIMITS, AT ANY TIME, TO CANCEL BEFORE STORING THE LAST DIGIT OR SWITCH.
