Option
Description
SENSOR NAME
Changes the name that corresponds to the sensor on the
top of the measure screen. The name is limited to 4
characters in any combination of letters, numbers, spaces
or punctuation.
FLOW FORMAT
Sets the flow units, the multiplier and the resolution.
LOW FLOW
Sets the minimal level for liquid flow. If the flow goes below
CUTOFF
this level, a warning appears.
VOLUME UNITS

Option
Description
TOTALIZER
Sets the totalizer volume to Auto (default) or Manual.
MODE
TOTALIZER
Resets the totalizer volume. Appears only if the totalizer
RESET
mode is set to Manual.
FILTER
Sets a time constant to increase signal stability. The time
constant calculates the average value during a specified
time—0 (no effect, default) to 60 seconds (average of
signal value for 60 seconds). The filter increases the time
for the sensor signal to respond to actual changes in the
process.
SELECT
Sets the tee-mount sensor type.

SERIAL NUMBER Sets the serial number of the sensor, limited to 16
characters in any combination of letters, numbers, spaces

Calibrate the sensor
About sensor calibration
The sensor characteristics slowly shift over time and cause the sensor to
lose accuracy. The sensor must be calibrated regularly to maintain
accuracy.
During calibration, data is not sent to the datalog. Thus, the datalog can
have areas where the data is intermittent.
Calibration procedure
Note: If the controller is powered on when the paddle wheel sensor is not connected,
the calibration history is deleted.
