Flowmeter Communications and Programming via the RS-232 Interface (optional)
Note
Refer to the flowmeter manual for programming the meter using the RS-232 Interface or see
Quick Terminal Mode Setup procedure below.
To use the RS-232 Interface to program the flowmeter instead of using the main unit display
you must be familiar with the basics of the Windows 95/98/NT/2000/XP HyperTerminal
communications program. Most PC computers provide at least one serial port using either a
9-pin or 25-pin D-type connector. The port designation can be either COM 1 or COM 2.
Usually, when a computer includes two serial ports, COM 1 will be the 9-pin connector and
COM 2 will be the 25-pin connector; however, port designations can vary. (See Quick
Terminal Mode Setup procedure.)
