Service Manual 6 - 11
 A changeover is done by the protocol switch.
Protocol switching is bound to the following:
 Engauge only supports GPU-FlexConn to Modbus switching.
Once the HCI-GPU is in Modbus mode, Engauge cannot execute
any modifications as Engauge does NOT support Modbus communi-
cation.
This scenario may be found at a first-time installation or during
servicing issues.
 SmartView supports both GPU-FlexConn to Modbus and Modbus to
GPU-FlexConn switching at any time, the actual protocol type being
visible real time.
Suitable on issues in the field.
 Along with data monitoring the Modbus host can issue certain
commands such as Overfill test, Reset, Alarm Test, and Modbus to
GPU-FlexConn switching.
 It is recommended to disconnect the SmartRadar FlexLine from the
Modbus communication link when using Engauge with the GPU-
FlexConn protocol.
Example (with ModTest screen example of Daniel Europe Ltd. below):
To switch from Modbus to GPU-FlexConn, the following must be done:
 Set Function = 5; Address = 1; Value = 1.
 Activate by pressing the Poll button.
