For accurate flow measurement, you will use either Flowlink®
software (optional) or WinADFM software (standard) to program
the ADFM with site-specific parameters for the pipe or channel
in which it is installed.
While both software programs are capable of basic site setup and
data retrieval, Flowlink software has expanded capabilities and
features. Contact the factory for more information.
If you have purchased Flowlink software, refer to Section 2.2 for
basic setup and Section 2.13 for basic data retrieval and viewing.
If you are using WinADFM software, refer to Section 2.3 for
basic setup and Section 2.14 for basic data retrieval and viewing.
For complete information about setup and operation of Flowlink
software, refer to the Flowlink user manual and Help files.
