Backward Choose this option for monitoring points at
which the Peak Combo Sensor has been positioned
downstream and to ensure the monitor only analyzes flows
moving away from the face of the sensor. One application
in which this would be the preferable option would involve
measuring velocity in an outgoing line following two
incoming lines in the manhole.
Backward Bidirectional Choose this option when the
Peak Combo Sensor is installed facing downstream and to
ensure the monitor analyzes flows moving both away from
and toward the face of the sensor. This option would be
beneficial, for example, when using a weir to measure
overflows that may experience of river intrusion.
• Maximum Velocity Select the maximum expected velocity
that will occur at the site for the monitor to use in fine-tuning
the velocity data. The default setting (Auto) serves to
optimize the range and resolution of the velocity data samples
to match the characteristics of the flow.
• Transmit Frequency Select the frequency at which to
transmit the signal. ADS recommends leaving the default
setting (Normal) for most applications. However, if hydraulic
conditions at the site are resulting in questionable or erroneous
readings, consider applying the other frequency option.
Note: For Peak Combo Sensors with serial numbers of
1xxx, ADS recommends using the High frequency option.

• Gain This read-only value represents the factor applied to
raw velocity readings to determine average velocity for
calculating quantity and typical days in the monitor. The
Gain is not applied to velocity readings reported in
Diagnostics where raw velocity readings are reported for
comparison to manual measurements.
• Cross Check Gain Enter the value by which to multiply
raw velocity readings in the monitor to determine average
