To set parameters for BACnet MS/TP EIA-485 
communications, press:
1.  Up/Down to move among entries.
2.  Enter to select.
NOTE:  The Max Master is the highest MAC 
address a device will attempt to locate 
when polling for master devices on 
the local network. To avoid possible 
communication issues with the network 
or a computer connected through a KMD-
5576 USB Communicator, the Max Master 
number should be the lowest number 
needed for that network.

If the FlexStat is used in a BACnet network with UTC 
(Coordinated Universal Time) synchronization (via 
broadcasting or addressing a single thermostat) set 
the UTC Offset value. The UTC Offset value is in 
minutes and corresponds to the distance of the local 
time zone to the zero degree meridian. In stand-alone 
operation or networks that do not have UTC broad-
casts, setting this value is not necessary.
