(The Control Unit can view the average speed of the fish in the Result Menu when the counting is stopped).

Page 15: Maintenance/Checklist
Maintenance/Checklist: To achieve the best counting result, be content with the maintenance of the counter. The units should always be cleaned after use. Follow also this checklist before every use of the counter: Use a moist cloth to clean the transparent pipe in the counter.
