not actively being used, you can hide it to simplify the Web interface. To

dialog. In the Display Hidden property, select the Devices check box and
then click Close.
Data Rate Select the bit rate (bits per second [bps]) at which the M-Bus device
communicates on the serial port. The default baud rate is 2400 bps. See
the documentation for your M-Bus device for more information on
supported bit rates.
Address Select whether to use primary or secondary addressing for the M-Bus
device. Primary addressing is preferred because it makes replacing M-Bus
devices more transparent. Each of these addressing methods is described
as follows:

Primary. The primary address is assigned by the network
management tool used to install the M-Bus device (analogous to a
L
ON W ORKS subnet/icon address). Enter a primary address between 0
to 250 for the M-Bus device.

Secondary. The secondary address is manufactured into the device at
the factory (analogous to a L
ON W ORKS Neuron ID). Enter a
secondary address between 0 to 99,999,999 for the M-Bus device.
Man ID Displays the device’s manufacturer ID as a 3-byte string.
