Valid values for the slave address are between 1 and 247, valid values for the baud rate are 9600, 19200
and 38400, valid values for parity are 0 (= None), 1 (= Odd) and 2 (= Even). The changed values will be
effective immediately after changing.
Using micro-switch and LEDs on top of the instrument
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 LEDs will flash.
The flashes are called “count-flashes” and have a pattern of 0.5 sec. on, 0.5 sec. off.

Note: Value zero will be indicated by a period of 1 sec. off (0.5 sec. off + 0.5 sec. off).
Examples:
For bus-address 35 / 9600 baud the green LED will flash 3 times, the red LED will flash 5 times and
both LEDs will flash 1 time.
For bus-address 20 / 19200 baud the green LED will flash 2 times, the red LED will flash 0 times and
both LEDs will flash 2 times.
For bus-address 3 / 38400 the green LED will flash 0 times, the red LED will flash 3 times and both
LEDs will flash 3 times.
