The Baud Rate drop-down menu sets connection communications speed.
Enable Field Mode check-box
Checking this box will allow the user to change the mode of the meter
being tested. Unchecking this box allows the user to ensure that meters
are not accidentally put into field mode during a meter test and will hide
the buttons on the Device Test tab.

This drop down box determines which AMR password is set when the
test is run and the DCW is sent to the meter. Clicking the Setup AMR
Passwords button allows the user to manage the AMR passwords that
are available in this drop down box.
