provided, the meter will be configured to the appropriate settings. If this information was
not provided, the meter default settings are:

Baud rate: 9600

Parity: Even Network Address: 017

The available Baud rate settings are 4800, 9600, 19200 and 38400. The available parity
settings are odd, even or none. The network address can be from 1 – 247. The Baud rate,
parity and address settings can be changed via the user interface/display on the front of
the meter. The information below details the process of entering the program mode and
