NOTES
The meter provides the permanent MODBUS TCP server on port 502.
Selecting the DNP3 TCP service port launches the second DNP3 TCP
server allowing simultaneous connections on both TCP ports. Selecting
the Modbus TCP port disables the DNP3 TCP server.
The TCP service port can also be changed trough the COM2 serial
port setup. Changing the communication protocol for the port
automatically changes the TCP port for the Ethernet.
When you change the device network settings through the Ethernet port,
the device port restarts so communication will be temporarily lost. You
