Special Flow Unit
FastKeys
A user created custom flow unit. The special unit is limited to four characters. The Field
Communicator indicates the special unit with SPCL. The LCD display will display the actual
four character user defined special unit.
Conversion Number
FastKeys
Used to relate base units to special units. For a straight conversion of volume units from one
to another, the conversion number is the number of base units in the new unit.
For example, if it is desired to convert from gallons to beer barrels there are 31 gallons in a
beer barrel. The conversion equation is as follows (where beer barrels is the new volume
unit):
1 gallon = 0.032258 bbl.
Total
FastKeys
Provides the output reading of the totalizer. Its value is the amount of liquid or gas that has
passed through the flowmeter since the totalizer was last reset.
Totalizer Control
FastKeys
Allows the totalizer to be started, stopped, or reset.
Start—Starts the totalizer counting from its current value.
Stop—Interrupts the totalizer count until it is restarted again. This feature is often used
during pipe cleaning or other maintenance operations.
Reset—Returns the totalizer value to zero. If the totalizer was running, it will continue to run
starting at zero.
