General AMC Series meter adopt Modbus-RTU protocol: "9600, 8, n, 1", in it 9600 is default baud rate, based on request, it can be revised as 2400,4800 , 19200 etc., 8 indicate have 8 data bit; n indicate no parity bit; 1 indicate have one stop bit.
terminal device address specified by users, this device will receive the connecting host computer data. Every terminal device has its only one address, only the addressing terminal is responding enquiry including this address. When terminal is Transmitting one responding, the responding slave address data tell host computer that which terminal is communicating with it.
3、Right shift CRC register for one bit, the most significant bit is filled with O, the least significant bit is shifted out and tested. 4、If the least significant bit is 0, Repeat the third step (next shift); If the least significant bit is 1, CRC register and preset fixed value specified (0A001H) carry out exclusive or operation.
