since product start-up.
Impulse and cycle capture: returns the index of the number of pulses counted since the product was
as well as the time since the previous pulse. The “pulse per capture cycle” option lets you measure the time since a larger number of pulses.

- Baudrate selects the speed of the teletransmission link.
- The “Reverse polarity” tick allows you to reverse the polarity of the tele-information link. This tick is only useful for SME-SMI meters.
