Loop test

Field Comm.
Loop Test verifies the output of the flowmeter, the integrity of the loop, and the operation of any
recorders or similar devices. Conduct the loop test after the flowmeter is installed in the field.
If the meter is located in a loop with a control system, the loop will have to be set to manual
control before the loop test is performed.
Loop Test allows the device to be set to any output between the Low Alarm and High Alarm.
