3.4 Via micro-switch and LED’s on the instrument (if present)

With the micro-switch on the instrument it is possible to change and readout the settings for slave address and baud

rate. The LED’s will indicate the tens of the address with green flashes and the units with red flashes. For baud rate-

indication both LED’s will flash.

3.4.1 Readout bus-address/MAC-ID and baud rate:

Pressing the switch 3x briefly with intervals of max. 1 second in normal running / operation mode will trigger the

instrument to “show” its bus-address/MAC-ID and baud rate.

For indication the bus-address/MAC-ID the green LED will flash the amount of tens and the red LED the amount of

units in the number. For indication of baud rate setting, both LED’s will flash.

The flashes are called “count-flashes” and have a pattern of 0.5 sec. on, 0.5 sec. off.
