A sample communication would look like this:

(Master computer requesting a report from address #1): 1 CRLF

(AM-TBR set to address #1 Response):001 0.0249 NTU

8.3.3. Modbus Communication

Modbus protocol communication is operational on all models. The Modbus information is
covered in a separate manual.

8.4. Flow Alarm (Catalog # 19945A)

The flow switch for the AM-TBR is a factory-installed option. This option indicates a “Low Flow”
condition by switching both relays to the fail state and setting the 4-20 mA signal to 2 mA. There
is also a screen indication of the low flow condition and a modbus register is set.

8.5. Flow Controller (Catalog # 19778)

The flow controller limits the flow, in high-pressure systems, to safe flow limits of less than 1
liter/minute.

8.6. Remote Panel Meter (Catalog # 19609)

The remote panel meter allows for remote indication of the NTU reading using the 4-20 mA loop.
No external power is required as the meter is run off of the 4-20 mA source.
