This condition can only be cleared by cycling power to the instrument. If the issue persists, call Technical Service at Brooks Instrument. Customer Service Brooks Technical Service is available to assist with start-up if you experience issues you cannot solve on your own. - Page 23 Brooks Instrument Installation Manual Quantim QMC Section 3 Operation After Quantim® has been fully installed, you must perform the zeroing procedure. This procedure ensures that the instrument responds properly to zero flow condition and sets a baseline for flow. To perform the zeroing operation on the meter/controller, use the ZERO button, which is located on top right hand side (outlet side) of the instrument.
