All parameters described in this chapter have influence on the behaviour of the mass flow meter. Please
be aware that wrong settings can disorder the output. To avoid unintential changes, some parameters
are locked (shown by the symbol). To unlock parameters set parameter ‘Init Reset’ to ‘Unlocked’.

The ‘Init Reset’ parameter is used to unlock advanced parameters for writing. This parameter can be set to the
following values:
Value
Mode
Instrument action
82
Locked
Advanced parameters are read-only
64
Unlocked
Advanced parameters are writeable and readable
This parameter is always set to ‘Locked’ at power-up.
