2.6.4 FLOW DISPLAY SCALE

After you select rate units, the meter automatically computes a prefix to provide the best combination
of capacity and resolution (e.g., KGAL/MIN). The [Flow Display Scale] menu cell shows the results. If
the displayed scaling is not suitable, you can edit it by accessing the option list. Note that this scaling
applies to all flow rate data displayed on the flow display screen, even if the units do not appear next to
the data (because there may not be room on the screen). Therefore, always keep this prefix in mind
when you enter flow related data.
To select a different Flow Display Scale:
To access the [Flow Display Scale] option list press
Move the cursor to the desired display scale by pressing
To register selection press

2.6.5 TOTAL VOLUME UNITS

This menu cell allows you to select which units the meter uses for the flow total output. If you select
mass units, the meter uses the specific gravity parameter (see paragrah 2.3) to convert volumetric
flow to mass flow. The default English Flow Total Units is [Gallons] (US). If this suits the application,
press to bypass this menu cell.
To change the default setting:
To access the [Total Volume Units] option list press
To move the cursor to the desired Total volume units press
To store selection press

2.6.6 TOTALIZER SCALE

After you select totalizer units, the meter automatically computes a prefix to provide the best capacity
(e.g., mGAL, GAL, and KGAL). The [Totalizer Scale] menu cell shows the results. If the displayed
scaling is not suitable, you can edit it by accessing the option list. Note that this scaling applies to all
flow total data displayed on the flow display screen, even if the units do not appear next to the data
(because there may not be room on the screen). Always keep this prefix in mind when you enter
totalizer-related data.
To select a different Totalizer Scale:
