Communicating through a Modem
On the 'Connection' tab, select in the 'Device' box a local modem installed on your
PC through which you will communicate to your meter. Click on 'Phones' to add
the phone number of the remote modem to the phone list. Type the phone
number in the 'Phone number' box, add comments if you desire, click 'Add', and
then click 'OK'. In the 'Phone number' box on the 'Connection' pane, select the
phone number from the list. Click 'OK'.
Communicating through Internet
Click on the 'Connection' tab. Click on the 'IP address' and type in the IP address
of the ETC-2002 Network Communicator to which your meter is connected. In
the 'Protocol' box, select communications protocol that you set in the meter. Type
the TCP port number for your protocol in the 'Host Port' box. Use the following
table to correctly select the TCP port for your protocol:
Modbus RTU - 502
DNP3
-
20000
SATEC ASCII - 5002
If you wish, adjust the time that PAS waits for a connection before announcing an
error and the number of retries PAS will use to receive a response from the meter
if communications fail.
