The RS232C Module can be interfaced with serial communication
ports of PCs, PLCs and SCADA systems. This module runs a
proprietary digital protocol, detailed in the Appendix of this manual,
that is used to monitor flow rate information in piping systems. The
RS232C Module may also be used to form a hardwire connection to
a PC that is running the ULTRALINK™ software utility. Baud rates
up to 19.2k are supported.

The RS485 Module allows up to 126 MFX systems to be daisy-
chained on a single three-wire cable network. Communications are
through a proprietary digital protocol, detailed in the Appendix of this
manual. All meters are assigned a unique one byte serial number
that allows all of the meters on the cable network to be accessed
independently. Baud rates up to 19.2k and cable lengths to 5,000
feet (1,500 meters) are supported without the need for repeaters.
RS485 MO
Select SLAVE for all of the MFX meters connected to the unit
designated as MASTER.
RS485 BA
Select a Baud rate that is compatible with the operating system.
