2.1.2

Pulses per Unit

In this mode there are 7 digits (five whole numbers and two decimals). The value that
must be introduced is the pulses per unit factor given on the label of the Covol or Turbine.
If the totalising unit selected is litres then introduce directly the value on the flowmeter
label. If you wish to totalise in m

then the pulses per litre of the flowmeter must be

multiplied by 1000. For example, if the turbine has a pulse per litre value of 21,02 then
21020,00 should be entered in the configuration. If the selected unit is U.S. Gallons then
the pulses/litre factor must be multiplied by 3.785. A turbine with 21.02 pulses/litre would
give a value of 79.56 pulses/USGAL. To totalise in any other unit, the pulses per litre
marked on the flowmeter must be multiplied by the conversion factor of litres/unit.

To introduce the required values, pushing the push button marked with the arrow pointing
upwards, the blinking digit will increase. Once the desired value of the digit is achieved, by
pressing the push button marked with the arrow pointing left, the blinking digit will be the
next digit to be modified. On the seventh digit, by pressing this push-button the blinking
digit will be the first digit on the display.
When the value of the pulses per unit is correct, by pushing the two push buttons PROG
at the same time for at least 2 seconds, this value will be automatically saved in the
memory and the instrument will return to normal working mode. Again, if the RESET push
button is pressed then the instrument will return to normal working mode without making any
changes in the pulses per unit factor.

NOTE: During the process of programming, the counter increases its power
consumption. In order to optimise the battery life time, if during 30 seconds no push
buttons are pushed, the counter will return to the normal working mode. In this case
the data in the memory will not be changed.

2.2 RESET

The partial totalizer can be reset in two ways:
By pushing the RESET push button during two seconds the counter will be set to zero.
It is possible to reset the counter without removing the plastic front cover by holding a
magnet horizontally just below the arrow pointing upwards during two seconds.
