Meter Settings This setting corresponds to the type of meter plugged in to the dispenser. Options 1-3 are for an encoder meter and depend on the channel setting of this meter. Encoder meters are used for petrol and diesel, while V50 meters (option 4) are used for LPG and AdBlue. Some settings (such as temperature and density calibration) are only available for V50 and therefore will not appear if the meter type is not set to V50.
Note that the MMQ still must be one of the valid values listed above. If the MMQ is calculated from the maximum flow, and is NOT one of the valid values listed above, it will be rounded up to the next valid value. For example, if the maximum flow was 600: ...
Changing the Temperature Calibration The temperature calibration can be used to adjust the temperature being retrieved from the meter, if this is not the actual temperature of the product being dispensed. The actual temperature of product being dispensed should be entered in this menu. This will be used to adjust new temperatures returned from the meter.
Changing the Maximum Flow If this setting is left at 0000 the maximum flow, or Qmax, is 40 litres/minute by default. When changing the maximum flow, note that the high flow cutoff, low flow cutoff (LPG only), MMQ, and preset rounding are calculated from the maximum flow. See Using the Dispenser Menus to edit these settings.
Changing Configuration Settings The dispenser has settings for each side (as previously shown) as well as configuration settings for the entire unit. Use the following diagram to set the unit up as desired. 0000002 Hardware Variant Card Totals Pump Mode Pump Settings 0 –...

Mode 1 = 5 digit Pump Protocol 0 = 6 digit 0 = Disabled 1 = Compac Channel 2 = PEC 0,1 (default) and 2 3 = Gilbarco Change the Protocol and the mode to match the controller’s settings. Channel 1 is the default channel for dispensers (channel number should always match the with the comms board terminal block used).
Changing the Solenoid Delay Pumps have two solenoids for product flow. If the solenoids are unavailable, the pump preset should also be unavailable. The solenoid delay is the time between when the motor starts, and when the solenoids start at the beginning of a transaction. The value entered is in seconds. See Using the Dispenser Menus to edit these settings.
Changing the Preset Rounding The dispensed amount of fuel can be rounded to the preset if within the preset rounding parameters. If the preset rounding is left as zero, the preset rounding will be calculated from the MMQ. In LPG mode, 2% of the MMQ will be used for preset rounding. In non-LPG mode, 1% of the MMQ will be used for preset rounding.
Changing the Flow Time Out The flow time out is the amount of time it takes for the transaction to time out after flow stops, if the nozzle is not hung up. The default depends on the dispenser mode. If the dispenser is in LPG mode, the default time out will be 10 seconds.
Parameter Settings The following table summarises the parameter switch settings. Information on these settings and how to change them can be found on the following pages. NOTE: The configuration settings must be set before parameter settings can be accessed. Setting Price Display Litres Display Software Version...
How to View the Software Version Pressing the parameter switch once will show the software version. P01. 0 0. 0 0 p01. 0 0. 0 0 The dispenser will then run through a segment test. Changing the Pump Number If the parameter switch is continually depressed, the following menu to change the pump number will appear.
Changing the Price The price must be set before the dispenser can be used, otherwise an error will be returned. Set the price in dollars per litre. See Using the Dispenser Menus to edit these settings. Use the procedure for both side A and B. pa01.

Standard Mode In standard mode, the main display will show: • Top row: Transaction total in dollars • Second row: Compensated litres for LPG, or uncompensated litres for non-LPG, dispensed by default, but can be changed in Dispenser Settings And the unit price window will display the price per litre. Purge Mode Test mode can be used for all calibrated runs with the exception of vapour tests.
Changing the Low-flow Cutoff A flow range is needed for each pump to dispense an accurate amount of product. If too much or too little fuel is dispensed, the meter can not accurately measure the dispensed fuel and therefore should cut off and display an end of sale message. The low-flow cutoff will end the transaction (without an error code) if flow drops below this value.
Changing the b Setting The b setting is currently only used for LCD dimming. Set the b configuration code as desired. 0000 LCD Dimming 0 – Disabled 1 – Enabled Changing the Slave Display Configuration Slave displays can be configured as, a clone of the main display, to show side A, or to show side B.
