100 Point Linearization
The FC-5000 flow monitor can be set up to linearize the output from an eligible
flow meter� The calibration data for a particular flow meter and the curve fitted
K-FACTOR and FREQ/VISC points are included when the meter, calibration and
FC-5000 unit are ordered from the factory�
To manipulate or enter the linearization parameters:
1� See "Flow Sensor Type" on page 29 to select Sine UVC Fixed v or Pulse UVC Fixed
v as the sensor input type�
2� Navigate to SYSTEM SETUP > ADVANCED SETUP > SENSOR INPUT >
FLOW SENSOR 1 CAL�
3� Highlight MULTI-POINT TABLE and press ENTEO�
4� For each calibration point, press F2 (f/v) to enter or edit the f/v or F3 (kFct) to
enter or edit the K-factor value�
5� On the numeric entry screens, enter the value and press ENTEO to save the
value, then return to the previous screen�
