As indicated in the above prompt, the Model GS868 flowmeter can
take measurements in two different ways
Skan is a low resolution technique for locating the acoustic signal and
for high velocity measurements. It is more robust in a noisy
environment than the Measure technique.
Measure is a more precise technique best used for low velocity
measurements.
If Skan is selected at the next prompt, the instrument uses this
technique exclusively. However, if S/M is selected, the meter uses
Skan to find the acoustic signal and then tries to use the Measure
technique for a more precise measurement.
