Time Base, Total Conversion Factor & Total Reset
The time base, total conversion factor, and total reset menus are
located in the Program menu.
The total and grand total have their own independent settings. This
means that one can be displaying the value in gallons while the other
displays in million gallons, liters, m
Time Base
The time base is the amount of time over which the rate parameter
should accrue. For example, if the rate was ten and the time base was
in minutes, then the total would increase by ten every one minute.
Total & Grand Total Conversion Factor
The total & grand total conversion factor is the amount by which the rate
is multiplied before it is added to the total or grand total. For Example, if
the rate was ten per second and the total conversion factor was 100, the
total would increase by 1000 every second. This is useful, for instance,
if you want to show rate in gallons and total in thousands of gallons.
Total & Grand Total Reset
The totals can be programmed for manual or automatic reset. In the
automatic reset mode, a programmable time delay is available to reset
the total or grand total after the assigned preset is reached.
Non-Resettable Totalizer
The total and grand total can be password-protected to prevent
unauthorized resets. The grand total can be programmed as a non-
resettable total, see page 59 for details.
