When the meter is operated in the Doppler measurement method, the transducers are
ALWAYS mounted directly opposite each other. The separation is therefore zero.

When the meter is operated in the Transit-Time measurement method, the front faces
of the transducers must be positioned the correct distance apart.

The separation distance is calculated by the meter using the following variables: pipe
size, pipe type, fluid type and mounting mode (V, Z, etc). When factory configured, the
separation distance and mounting mode is printed on the serial label. If the meter has
not been factory configured, or if a new configuration is required, the

configuration data must be input before proceeding. See

section 5 for instructions on how to create or modify a configuration.

Note that if the actual pipe dimensions or fluid type

from the values

configured, the calculated separation distance will be incorrect.

For meters so equipped, the separation distance (as calculated based on the currently
active configuration set) is also shown on the LCD display and on the Remote
Communications PC Software display screen.
