EECO tank monitor
Interface with CFN II or CFN3 using either the a
RS232 connection utilizing the CFN System’s PORT
command or a Gasboy RS232-RS485 converter. In
the EECO monitor setup menus, there are two
selections for connecting to a site controller. These
are:
Gasboy-PC or Gasboy-Site Control.
Gasboy-PC
Use this setting when connecting to one of the site’s
RS232 ports and interfacing using the PORT
command. This sets the communication parameters to
9600, odd, 1 stop bit, 7 data bits, and no security
code.
Gasboy-Site Control
Use this setting when connecting to one of the site's
RS485 loops. This sets the communication
parameters to 9600, odd, 1 stop bit, 7 data bits, and
security code to 000001. These parameters can also
be changed individually. You need a C07476 cable to
connect from the monitor to the 485/232 converter
(C05897).
