UNITS OF VOLUME
The user can select from four predefined units of Volume, or create their own custom value. The four predefined units are
US Gallons GP
Cubic Feet CF
Liters LP
Cubic Meters CM
The user can also select any two custom characters to represent units from AA to ZZ and an input multiplier which will
numerically relate the custom unit of measure to US Gallons. The input multiplier can be set at any value between 0.0001
and 10000.
The Units of Measurement is broken into two variables, UNITS OF VOLUME and UNITS OF TIME. The two variables are
then combined to display the desired units of measure. For example, if units of Volume is to set Cubic Meters (CM) and
Units of Time is set for Seconds (S), the controller will display flow as Cubic Meters per Second on the front LED display.
Press the key once which will move the
cursor over the smallest digit of the custom multiplier.
With "N" selected, pressing
