11.1  Information about the device  

To show up information about the device select the 

 button on menu bar. 

This screen contains all the basic data concerning the device: model, ID, serial number, 

firmware, IP address, COM (RS485) communication parameters and Modbus address. 

 

Fig. 11.1 An example view of the 

‘Device Information’ window. 

Additionally, this screen contains two function buttons: 

 

Opens up the screen with the information  about the currently installed 
measurement modules (the '-------' sign and the red color of the bar mean 
that no module is installed on the slot or the PSBATT module in version 
1.0 or in version 1.1 is installed). 

 

 

 

Opens up the window with additional information about the device, i.e. 
manufacturer's  address,  or  contact  details  to  technical  support 
department. Additionally, for the user logged in as an Administrator, it is 
possible to edit this field and insert additional descriptions or information.
