Calibration

Diameter

A

This parameter is set at the factory . In the event the amplifier is replaced,

verify that the pipe diameter matches the installed pipe size .

Detector Factor

A

This parameter is set at the factory . This factor compensates for accuracy

error as a result of the installed detector .
In the event the amplifier is replaced, this parameter must be

reprogrammed with the original detector zero .

Detector Zero

A

This parameter is set at the factory .
This parameter compensates for accuracy error as a result of the installed

detector .
In the event the amplifier is replaced, this parameter must be

reprogrammed with the original detector factor .

Amplifier Factor

This parameter is set at the factory and is Read Only . This factor

compensates for accuracy error as a result of the installed amplifier .

Coil Current

This parameter is set at the factory and is Read Only . This factor

compensates for accuracy error as a result of the installed amplifier .

Scale Factor

S

Changing the scale factor lets you adjust the meter´s accuracy without disturbing parameters set

by the factory . You can tune the meter to meet changing application requirements .

Power Line Frequency

S

This parameter is set at the factory .
This parameter provides measuring immunity to industrial noise from a power supply feed .

Period

A

This parameter configures the frequency (1/4, 1…99 seconds) of sampled measurements . In other

words, if set to 15, then every 15 seconds it will sample for 208 micro seconds .

NOTE:

N

Parameters indicated by the battery icon, if changed will affect battery performance .

Standard sampling period is 15 seconds .

Empty Pipe Detection Empty Pipe ON/OFF

S

When set to ON, an Empty Pipe condition indicates to the outputs

that the meter is not completely filled . When set to OFF, empty pipe

conditions are not detected .

Threshold

S

This parameter is set at the factory and adjusted to the conductivity of

normal water .

Measure

Measures the real empty pipe value . This parameter is Read Only .
