6.2 Empty Pipe Set
The flow meter performs the MTYmatic routine automatically during its Initial Make-up to
establish a standard setting for the Empty Pipe alarm. This process is normally sufficient for
setting this parameter. The [Empty Pipe Set] option list allows you to re-invoke MTYmatic,
use an Actual MTY routine (if application conditions allow you to empty and refill the pipe) or
use the Set Empty routine to set the empty pipe threshold by direct numeric entry.
Actual MTY Command
If application conditions allow you to empty and refill the pipe, then you may choose to
perform the Actual Empty procedure; however, it is not required to do so.
Note
IMPORTANT
NEVER perform the Actual MTY procedure if the pipe can not be emptied.
To use the Actual MTY command:
1. From [Channel Setup] scroll down to [Install Sensor].
2. Press the <Right Arrow> key and scroll down to access the [Empty Pipe Set] option list.
3. Press the <Right Arrow> key.
