1.2 Downlink CIU
A field port can be used to connect an existing CIU with tank gauges.
This CIU is called a downlink CIU. The CIU 888 can communicate with
a downlink CIU using the GPU protocol on serial (RS-232/RS-485),
creating an extra layer between the CIU 888 and the tank gauges
connected to the downlink CIU. The following CIUs can act as a
downlink CIU:
