Configuring the Monitor Location

To ensure the most accurate results for each monitor location, the
user must activate the FlowShark monitor with the proper
configuration information to satisfy the specific monitoring needs of
the project and to reflect actual site conditions. The configuration
information includes critical details such as specific pipe
characteristics, location description, device assignment and
parameters, log rates, and other items relevant to the site and project
requirements.

The configuration information is stored in a Location Information
File (LIF) in the user’s local directory or network drive. Certain
elements of the LIF are saved to the monitor memory during
monitor activation.

This section includes instructions on performing the following
activities required for monitor configuration:

Creating a Monitor Location in the Profile database

Creating an Installation Table for the Monitor Location

Selecting and Editing Devices

Note: If remote (landline or wireless) communications
already have been established for the location, these
activities can be performed in cooperation between field
and office personnel. If remote communication is not
available, perform configuration and activation on-site
through direct communication with the monitor.

Launching the Profile Software

Before traveling to the field for installation, configuration, and
activation activities, install the Profile software on the field
computer.
