BASE UNIT AND MODULE CONFIGURATION

72
NOTE: When using Schedule Reporting Method and the ADM-1 is initially
reporting, if you enter into the menu-driven mode of configuration and exit,
the ADM-1 will not resume reporting data messages until the programmed
Report Start Time elapses. You may program the ADM-1 without disrupting
data message reporting by using dynamic configuration.
REPORT INTERVAL
Type “3” and <cr> to enter the Report Interval menu. The V77 ADM-1 will respond:
REPORT INTERVAL
Report Interval HH:MM
Enter Hours (0-24) <cr>, or X to Exit:
Enter Minutes (0-59) <cr>, or X to Exit:
Enter the desired Report Interval. The Report Interval can range from 1 minute to 24
hours. Once the Report Start Time elapses, the V77 ADM-1 will report all buffered
data messages to the designated host module until the buffer is empty. The V77
ADM-1 will continue to transmit all buffered data messages every time the Report
Interval expires. For example, if the Report Start Time is 12:00 and the Report
Interval is 1:00 (1 hour), the ADM-1 will report all messages in its buffer every hour
on the hour starting at 12:00.
HOST ADDRESS
Type “4” and <cr> to enter the Host Address menu. The V77 ADM-1 will respond:
HOST ADDRESS
Host Address 1:1,1
Enter Unit Number (1-32) <cr>, or X to EXIT:
Enter Module Number (1-16) <cr>, or X to EXIT:
Enter Port Number (1-4) <cr>, or X to EXIT:
Enter the appropriate Host Address. This consists of the Unit Number (1 to 32),
Module Number (1 to 16), and Port Number (1 to 4) where the designated host
module is located. Each entry should be followed by <cr>. If there is a single M
Series unit in service, the Host Address would typically be Unit 1, Module 1, Port 1.
NOTE: The Host Address must be supplied to direct self-reporting data
messages to the desired destination. If the Host Address is incorrect, self-
reporting data messages will be misdirected or lost.
