Communication Register List
These integer registers can be used to override the DIP switch address and baud rate settings
and for more advanced communication settings, like even parity or 38,400 baud. See
below for details.

Diagnostic Register List
These registers provide information and diagnostics for the meter. These are all integer registers.
UptimeSecs
and
TotalSecs
are 32 bit integer dual registers: the first register provides the lower
16 bits, and the second register provides the upper 16 bits of the 32 bit value. See
and
below for detailed information.
