Configuring the Monitor Location
To ensure the most efficient and useful results for each monitor
location, the user must activate the FlowShark IS flow monitor with
the proper configuration information to satisfy the specific
monitoring needs of the project and to reflect actual site conditions.
The configuration information includes critical details such as
specific pipe characteristics, location description, device assignment
and parameters, log rates, and other items relevant to the site and
project requirements.
The configuration information is stored in a Location Information
File (LIF) in the user’s local directory or network drive. Certain
elements of the LIF are saved to the monitor memory during
monitor activation.
This section includes instructions on performing the following
activities required for monitor configuration:

Creating a monitor location in the Profile database

Creating an installation table for the monitor location

Selecting and editing devices
Note: If remote communications have already been
established for the location, field personnel can perform
these activities in cooperation with office personnel. If
remote communication is not available, perform
configuration and activation on site through direct
communication with the monitor.
Launching the Profile Software
Before traveling to the field for installation, configuration, and
activation activities, install the Profile software on the field
computer.
