of upstream and downstream raw signals to a file named
Wave01.met. (If you repeat the captures, the successive files will

the files over the IR port to a PC for analysis by a service
engineer.
Note: Refer to page 6-16 for information on transferring a file
to a PC.

Applying a Stored Signal for Diagnosis

The Simulate option places the PT878GC in a mode in which it
uses a stored signal (instead of the live signal from the
transducers) to make flow calculations for diagnostic purposes.
On the PC, you must rename a Wavexx.met file as Wave.met and
send it back to the PT878GC over the IR link. Then, on the
PT878GC, scroll down to the Simulate entry in the Service Menu
