battery to ensure continued trouble-free operation It is recommended that the total be saved to memory before the battery
is removed

the proper polarity, and then refasten the front panel
ADDITIONAL INPUT OPTIONS
The B2800 flow monitor is capable of receiving magnetic pickup input (small signal sine wave) or a contact closure input

for magnetic pickup input To change to a contact closure input, remove JP2 from the top two pins and jumper them to the
bottom two pins See Figure 5
