Move between the available options.
For Example
Select the desired option. This will show on the

NOTE: If you select METER any relevant flow measurement will be in metric units (M

inches.
If you select
METER when using a FLOW unit configured to show G.P.M., the METER sign will flash rapidly for a few
seconds. If you approve the selection by pressing
ENT, the flow unit will change to M

/HR.
Setting the Relay Values
The relays in the SmartSonic Remote are SPDT (Single Pole, Double-throw). This means that each relay has (3)
connections:
•
Normally Closed (NC)
•
Common (C)
•
Normally Open (NO)
In the SmartSonic, the term
CLOSED means that the relay is de-energized. In this state the NC and C terminals are
closed (connected), and the NO and C terminals are open (disconnected).
The term
OPEN means that the relay is energized. In this state the NC and C terminals are open (disconnected), and the
NO and C terminals are closed (connected).
In the event of power loss to the SmartSonic, the relays automatically go to the
CLOSED state (NC & C are connected;
NO & C are disconnected). Make sure that any auxiliary equipment connected to the SmartSonic relays, will be in a safe
condition upon loss of power to the SmartSonic.
You can set the relays to (5) different indication modes:
•
Level
•
Distance
•
Flow
•
Volume
•
Totalization
