2.17 Extended “Set Daily Reset Time” Command
The H-340SDI automatically resets the daily accumulations a certain time each day. For example,
one day may be calculated from 6:00 AM of one day to 6:00 AM of the next day. This command
sets the time of day at which the reset is scheduled.

2.18 Extended “XTEST” Command
This command is primarily used for production testing and requires the use of a H-419 or SDI-12

purposes. This is not compliant with the SDI-12 specification and is not used with data loggers.
To activate the test mode, first send the command “aXTEST!”, then enter the verifier’s MONITOR
mode. Whenever a bucket tip occurs, the H-340 now transmits the time between bucket tips and the
adjusted rainfall for the bucket tip. This test mode may be used to help troubleshoot the installation
by providing a continuous readout of bucket tip timing and rainfall. The test mode is exited by
