If you do not know the slave address of a device to be connected to the CamCor meter, you can reset it using the follow
-
ing procedure:
WARNING
Do not use this query while more than one slave is connected. In a multipoint drop connection
setup, all connected slaves share the same address; therefore, resetting the slave address will
assign the same address to all slave devices.
1. Establish a point-to-point connection between the slave device and the CamCor meter.
2. Send the following information:
–
Broadcast slave address 0 (0x00)
–
Function Code 16 (0x10)
–
Register 167 (0x00A7)
–
Data value to be written (in this example, Slave Address 1 = 0x0001)
–
Data validity check—CRC (0xB1FB)
The entire query string appears as follows:
0x001000A70001B1FB
Note
The “0x” prefix is used only with the first 4-digit character string, and is dropped from the remaining character
