4.7.5 NETWORK ID

The Network ID menu cell stores an identification number to facilitate host computer polling when you
use this system in a network environment. The Network ID number can be any value other than 0
(zero). The default setting, zero, disables the network function. Note that entering a non-zero Network
ID number suspends all routine Datalogger activity regardless of any selected options.
NOTE: If you are using the flowmeter for a "stand-alone" application, you must keep the zero
Network ID number.

RTS line low and abort the transmission attempt. Data entry units are seconds. The default RTS key
time is 0.2 seconds.
