communications, press:
1. Up

NOTE: The Max Master is the highest MAC
address a device will attempt to locate
when polling for master devices on
the local network. To avoid possible
communication issues with the network
or a computer connected through a KMD-
5576 USB Communicator,
the Max Master
number should be the lowest number
needed for that network.

If the FlexStat is used in a BACnet network with UTC
(Coordinated Universal Time) synchronization (via
broadcasting or addressing a single thermostat) set
the UTC Offset value. The UTC Offset value is in
minutes and corresponds to the distance of the local
time zone to the zero degree meridian. In stand-alone
operation or networks that do not have UTC broad-
casts, setting this value is not necessary.

NOTE: The BACnet standard for this offset value
is: “The time zones to the west of the zero
degree meridian shall be positive values,
and those to the east shall be negative
values.” The value is in
minutes
, not hours.
