The totalizer pulse output can only be realized by mapping the pulse output to the OCT or BUZZER hardware devices. For example, assume that the POS totalizer pulse output is needed, and every pulse should represent 0.1cubic meter of liquid flow; the pulse output will be mapped to the internal Buzzer, 18005851519 sales@ato.com Global Shipping www.ato.com...
