The clock of the gAVC 1200 is read and when the UniWire is connected correctly it will reply with an Init OK.
- Page 20 Communication unit gACC-499E_U_Manual_EN.doc IEC622056-21 Communication With the configuration program it is possible to communicate through the IEC62056-21 protocol by using a modem connection. In order to do this select “Start IEC” from the menu. The COM-port for the modem needs to be set, a phone number must be entered and a modem init string must be specified.
- Page 21 Download time adjust data data When the gACC-499E/U is connected directly to an encoder or a pulse generator of a gas meter, intervals larger than 24 hours can be used. Because the clock deviation is approximately 1 second per day, a correction value over the used interval will be determined automatically after synchronizing the clock.
- Page 22 Communication unit gACC-499E_U_Manual_EN.doc The format of the read time correction data. The performed correction is determined by the known correction of the same month, for the previous year. When this value is available yet (new installation), the correction of the last month is applied.
- Page 23 Communication unit gACC-499E_U_Manual_EN.doc After performing “Setting time correction” the below screen will be displayed. Battery Status The battery status can be read by performing “Get Battery Status:. In this window the start date of battery 1 (Group 1) and the start date of battery 2 (Group 2) will be displayed.
- Page 24 2.14 Writing a configuration file The operation of the gACC-499E/U is determined by a configuration file. This configuration file will be written into the memory of the modem. For this the configuration program”gACC-499 configuration” is used. Procedure: Always read the existing configuration first by using the Read “1” button.
