Send Message
Click the Send Messages button to send all messages in the Message List to the Informer-IP.
Messages are sent real time one at a time in the order they appear in the Message List.
Messages are assigned a Message Number based on the number of messages currently
programmed in the RTU. If there are currently 3 messages, the next message will be assigned
number 4 as shown above. The assigned message number will appear in the Comm Monitor
following completion of the upload. To remove all messages click the Delete All button. After
performing Delete All the next message will be assigned number one. Delete All may take a few
seconds, wait for acknowledgement before sending new messages.
Important: If you are unsure of the number of messages currently programmed, it is
recommended to” Delete All” before adding new messages.
