Fairly new to dealing with flow computers in general (been a steep learning curve). We have a brand new Floboss 107 unit installed and initially configured it using the ROCLink software. For a longer story short, we have a cellular backhaul unit with MODBUS passthrough (there are other modbus enabled devices connected to it, whose addresses can be change to avoid interference with the Floboss addressing). "passthrough" in this sense is if the address doesn't exist on the backhaul unit, it passes it on through its RS-232 port which is connected to COM2 on the Floboss 107 (19.2k 8N1; ASCII mode).
Now I initially attempted to configure the floboss with ROCLink as a MODBUS slave, and picked the registers and assigned address numbers (ie. Total Flow Today - start address 1, end address 2, type parameter; Instantaneous Flow - start address 3, end address 4, type parameter; etc..). I've futzed around with various settings, but I seem unable to configure this correctly. Looking though the docs (unless im missing a whole sheet), I only seem to find information on setting it up as a MODBUS master with custom User Programs (something that I don't need).
Anyone have a quick tutorial per-se on a simple setup like this? (link, text, missing docsheet heh) Thanks for any help!
