Select Flow Rate Units (FloUnit)
Standard Model (Simple Setting)
The monitor allows the choice of many common rate units Consult the
for all the unit
choices At the flow unit FloUnit prompt, press the ENTER button once The monitor now shows the current rate and totalizer
units choice flashing on and off If the current selection is correct, press the ENTER button to advance to the next parameter
To change to an alternate unit, use the
▲ or ► buttons to scroll to the desired rate unit and press the ENTER button to save
the choice
Select Rate (Time) Interval (RateInt)
Standard Model (Advanced Setting)
The term rate implies that something is occurring over a period of time Most people are familiar with the speed of a car
reported in miles per hour (mph) The same concept holds true for a flow meters based on sensing velocity The time choices
are seconds Sec , minutes Min, hours Hour, and days Day At the rate interval RateInt prompt, press the ENTER button once
The monitor now shows the current time interval choice flashing on and off If the current selection is correct, press the
ENTER button once to advance to the next parameter To change to an alternate time interval, use the use the
▲ or ►
buttons to scroll to the desired time interval and press the ENTER button to save the choice
Select Flow Rate Units (RateUnt)
Basic Function (Advanced Setting)
The monitor allows the choice of many common rate units Consult the
all the unit choices At the rate unit RateUnt prompt, press the ENTER button once The monitor now shows the current rate
unit choice flashing on and off If the current selection is correct, press the ENTER button to advance to the next parameter To
change to an alternate unit, use the
▲ or ► buttons to scroll to the desired rate unit and press the ENTER button to
save the choice
Select Units of Measure for Total (TotlUnt)
Basic Function (Advanced Setting)
If a flow total is desirable, the units for the total must be selected The monitor allows the choice of many common totalization
units Consult the
in the appendix for all the unit choices At the total unit TotlUnt prompt,
press the ENTER button once The monitor shows the current total unit If the current selection is correct, press the ENTER
button once to advance to the next parameter To change to an alternate unit, use the
▲ or ► buttons to scroll to the desired
totalization unit and press the ENTER button to save the choice
Select a Total Multiplier (TotlMul)
Basic Function (Advanced Setting)
The monitor has a very versatile display that has the ability to accumulate the flow total in multiples of ten For example, if the
most desirable totalization unit is 1000 gallons, the monitor can easily be set up for this requirement Once the unit is back in
run mode, every time the total display increments by one digit the actual total would be an additional 1000 gallons At 1000
gallons the total display would read 1, at 3000 gallons the total display would read 3 and so forth This feature eliminates
having to look at a total, count the digits, and mentally insert commas for each 1000 multiple
At the total multiplier TotlMul prompt, press the ENTER button once The monitor now shows the current total multiplier If
the selection is correct, press the ENTER button to advance to the next parameter To change to an alternate multiplier, use
the
▲ or ► buttons to scroll to the desired multiplier unit and press the ENTER button to save the choice The multiplier
choices are 0.01 (ч 100), 0.1 (ч 10), 1, x10, x100, x1000 units
Enter a Specific Gravity Value (Spec Gr)
Basic Function (activated when mass units are selected)
The ER-500 has two mass flow unit and two mass total unit choices (pounds and kilograms) When either pounds or kilograms
are chosen in either the rate units RateUnt or total units TotlUnt parameters the specific gravity Spec Gr entry parameter
is activated
