For Serial Port Connections: for Rosemount 3410 Series Gas
Ultrasonic meters connect to Port A. You may need to adjust
your Meter Directory settings for the connection so that they
match the port default settings. Port A will default to 19200
baud with a Modbus address of 32.
—
For Ethernet Connections: If you are connecting to the meter
over an Ethernet port, you should be able to connect with the
same IP address as normal. If this is unsuccessful, the meter may
have defaulted to 192.168.135.100 with a subnet of
255.255.255.0. Make sure your PC has a compatible address
and attempt a connection using this IP address.

When the meter restarts, it takes about two minutes before you
will be able to reconnect depending on the firmware upgrade
being performed. If the database does need to be reinitialized,
it could take up to five minutes.

After an upgrade, it is recommended to reconnect to the meter
and repeat the Program Download process.
