Operation manual

 

 

All flowmeters and computer are connected parallel using twisted pair cable. At each end of the communications 
line should be 470 

Ω

 terminations. 

 

 

Interconnection of three flowmeters and computer using RS485 bus 

 

Flowmeters are marked with numbers. These numbers are equal to the flowmeters RS485 address. 

Program Flow910 is designed for flowmeter control using RS485 or RS232 serial bus. It can be ordered as M900 

option. 

 

Note:  Communication through the serial port RS485 is a half duplex type. The flowmeter is a listener and sends 

data  only  after  a  query  from  a  computer.  Each  flowmeter  has  it’s  own  RS485  address.  The  range  of 

addresses is  0 to 255. Factory setting of RS485 address is 0. Communication speed is selectable between 

1200 and 19200 Bd. For cables over 100m or if there is a noisy power supply voltage (especially peaks 

generated, usually by motors, etc.), select communication speed below 9600 Bd. 

 

Note:   Serial port RS485 is galvanically isolated from other electronic circuits.
