Electronics
3.1 Procedure before removing the Mark III
Electronics
Procedure
1. Before removing power from the meter being retrofitted, use the Daniel MeterLink
™
software to connect to the meter.
2. Use the Edit/Compare Configuration screen in Daniel MeterLink
™
to read the
configuration from the meter and save it to a file on your computer. An example for
a file name might be “Meter Name, MkIII Final Config, 3-4-2013 10-15-02 AM.cfg”.
Daniel MeterLink
™
will be used later in this procedure (see Section 6) to convert the
configuration and download it to the 3410 Series electronics.
CAUTION
LOSS OF SET-UP DATA
The current meter configuration file must be saved before beginning the 3410
Series electronics retrofit.
Failure to save the current configuration file can result in the loss of important
set-up data.
3 through 8 provide more detailed instructions on obtaining the required
information with respect to the communications set-up of the Mark III electronics,
however, if these settings are already known, these steps can be skipped. Step 8 is
for Frequency and Diagnostic outputs. For reference, the known values should be
entered in the Summary Table of Communication/Output Settings in Appendix B.
This information will be required in the setup of the 3410 Series electronics. For any
setting which is not known, the applicable step(s) for obtaining that information
can be used.
3. Use the File|Meter Directory menu path, then select the <meter name> you
want to retrofit.
a) Click the Direct button on the lower left corner of the Meter Directory dialog
box.
b) The Direct Connection Properties For dialog appears.
c) Obtain the Modbus ID (same as Comms Address).
