Configuring Digital Communications
13.1 About this chapter
This chapter explains how to configure digital communications. Only communication parameters are
discussed here; for ticket formatting and printing information, see Chapter 15.
Note: To install wiring for digital communications, see Chapter 3.
Failure to perform configuration tasks in the proper sequence could result in an incomplete
configuration. See Section 1.7 for the recommended configuration sequence.
13.2 Digital communication menu
Use the Digital Communication menu, shown in Figures 13-1 through 13-3, to access and configure
digital communications parameters. The RS-485 menu displayed depends on several factors:
• Which protocol is configured
• Whether or not the custody transfer application is installed
• If the custody transfer application is installed, whether World Area is set to OIML or NTEP
The Digital Communication menu is accessed through the Configuration option of the Management
menu. To access the Management menu, see Chapter 4. You will be configuring:
• RS-485 parameters
• Bell 202 parameters
• Device parameters
Note: Before you can use digital communications, the appropriate wiring must be installed. See
Chapter 3.
Note: Although the Digital Communication menu is used to configure ticket formatting and printing,
these topics are not discussed in this chapter. For information on ticket formatting and printing, see
Chapter 15.
CAUTION
Changing configuration can affect device operation.
Set control devices for manual operation before changing device configuration.
