server, a modem, or directly to the workstation’s serial
port.

being sent or received.

Place the meter into the
connection module cradle.
The connection module turns
on the meter. The module can
detect the presence of a modem
and will automatically dial the
receiving modem phone
number (provided the number
was downloaded to the meter
from the workstation, or
entered at the meter). If the
line is busy, the connection
module retries up to 20 times
at 30-second intervals before it
times out.
If the receiving modem phone number was not
downloaded to the meter from the workstation or
entered at the meter, the Enter Phone # screen
appears. You must enter the phone number
manually (see “Entering a Receiving Modem Phone
Number” on page 44).
