2.0 S ETTING THE UMPERS INPUT RANGE JUMPER This jumper is used to select the proper input range. The input range selected in programming must match the jumper setting. Select a range that is high enough to accommodate the maximum signal input to avoid overloads. To access the jumper, remove the side cover of the meter.

Receiving Data From The Meter Abbreviated Transmission Data is transmitted from the meter in response to either a transmit command (T), a block print request command (P) or a User Input print request. The Byte Description response from the meter is either a full field transmission or an abbreviated 12 byte data field, 10 bytes for number, one byte for sign, 1-12 transmission, depending on the selection chosen in Module 5.
Communication Format Start Bit and Data Bits Data is transferred from the meter through a serial communication channel. In serial communications, the voltage is switched between a high and low level Data transmission always begins with the start bit. The start bit signals the at a predetermined rate (baud rate) using ASCII encoding.
