Actual battery life will vary depending upon configuration. The figure given assumes interrogation with Flowlink 4.13 once a week, with a site configu- ration of a 2103, 2150, and 2191 (using Energizer 529 batteries) and a connection speed of 33600 baud. The 2150 was configured to record level, velocity, flow rate every 15 minutes, total flow, and battery voltage every 24 hours.

2103 Modem Module Section 5 Modbus Protocol Sections 5.1 through 5.5 give an overview of the basic capabilities and operation of Modbus protocol as it applies to Isco 2100 Series flow modules. For a Glossary of Terms and Common Acronyms, see sections 5.4 and 5.5.
2103 Modem Module Section 5 Modbus Protocol By accessing these registers you can obtain the current value of whatever parameter you desire. The reading(s) can then be dis- played or stored wherever you designate as a destination; for example, a process control computer.
2103 Modem Module Section 5 Modbus Protocol 5.3 Configurations A variety of configurations can be made with Modbus, either through direct connection or through a modem. In the example shown in Figure 5-1, you are direct-connecting a server PC to two individual 2100 sites through Modbus, using the COM ports on the OPC Server, which are directly connected to the remote sites.

6.1.1 Cleaning The 2103 Module case may be cleaned using a soft cloth, warm water, and a mild detergent. Do not use an abrasive cleanser, or you might scratch the surface of the case.
The desiccant is contained in a cartridge located on the left side Desiccant of the 2103 Modem. To remove the cartridge, unscrew the collar and slide the cartridge out of the 2103 Modem. The clear tube reveals the silica gel desiccant inside. To replace the silica gel desiccant: Collar 1.
6.4 Hydrophobic Filter If the 2103 is in a humid location or submerged, a hydrophobic filter prevents water from entering the desiccant cartridge and reference line. Any amount of water will plug the filter and it must be rinsed with clean water and allowed to dry, or replaced so that the case can be reliably ventilated.
