Frequently Asked Questions about Fuel Flow Meters
Question number FAQ-0818
How should CAN communication and RS-232C communication be differentiated?
CAN communication allows for high-speed output with a 1 ms update, but the CAN input (CAN commands) to the FM-3100 is limited to Start, Stop, Hold, and Reset only. Configuration changes to the FM-3100 are not possible.
RS-232C communication allows for almost all configuration changes and measurement value retrieval for the FM-3100, but it is inferior to CAN in terms of communication speed.
