Graph Data (Operate Menu)
Users familiar with previous versions of Accuflow will recognize this function as the Connect/Measure
command.
Before beginning measurements, the user is asked if they wish to log data. When the data is to be logged
Accuflow will automatically select a folder name and all variables will be logged using the same file
naming conventions and formats used when data is collected from the flowmeter datalogger. See the
Retrieve Logged Data (Datalog Menu) for the details.
Next the Data Series selection dialog will be displayed to allow selection of specific data variables to be
plotted. Note that even though all data selections are allowed, if a selection is chosen that there is no current
data for such as section 2 flow data when section 2 is not enabled in the flowmeter the plot will only show
zero. Once the data to be plotted is chosen and the OK button is clicked the graph will be displayed and
data will be acquired from the flowmeter for processing. Should the cancel button be clicked then the
display will be cleared and no data processing will take place. Different buttons are enabled or disabled
based on the running/paused state of the data acquisition process.
The ? button can be used to display this screen.

The Close button will terminate the acquisition process and close the dialog window.

The Pause button will momentarily interrupt data acquisition causing the Print, Save buttons and

Data Series to be enabled for use.
The Print button will raise a printing dialog to allow selecting a printer to print the current state of the

graphs.
The Save button will display a "Save As" dialog box to save a bitmap file representing the current

display.
The Data Series button will display the data selection dialog for adding/subtracting data to be plotted.

The Graph button will interrupt the acquisition process and display a dialog to allow changing various

settings of the graph.
Flowmeter Reset (Operate Menu)
This command pertains to the 7510 series flowmeter and is not available for the 8510 series, will cause the
computer portion of the DSP board perform a full reset which returns the CPU and associated circuitry to
the same state as if the system was just powered on. If the connection to the flowmeter is via a phone line
using a modem, the modem will hang-up and the connection will need to be restored manually.
Set Volume (Operate Menu)
When Set Volume is chosen, a dialog to set the individual section volumes is displayed. Check all sections
that you wish to set a volume for, and enter the new volume value. When OK is clicked, the entered volume
will be sent to the meter. 7510 flowmeters with Firmware versions prior to 837991 do not support this
option.
Note: A 7510 or 7510+ flowmeter will allow settings for 4 sections while an 8510 will allow settings for 5
sections.
Get Flowmeter Version (Operate Menu)
When get flowmeter version is chosen, the application will attempt to connect with the flowmeter, and will
ask for its version number. It will be reported to the user and stored in the current configuration. Flowmeter
firmware versions prior to 837991 do not support this command, and communication failures will occur.
