NOTE: If your computer is silver in color, please click here. You have a newer version of our water velocity meter. |
Setup Mode is reached by holding both buttons simultaneously for 8 seconds until "mi" or "km" appears. Follow these
instructions to setup the computer:
- Step 1. Calibration: Use the left button to scroll between "mi" for English and "km" for Metric.
- English Units If you want the velocity to read in units of ft/sec, keep "mi" on the screen. With
"mi" in the lower right corner, push the right button for " CAL." The number beneath "CAL" is the calibration
number and was factory-set at 33.31.
- Metric units If you prefer for the velocity to read in units of m/sec, change to "km." With "km" in the
lower right corner, push the right button for "CAL." Set the calibration number to 1603.
- Low Flow Option If you have a flow probe with the low flow, you must stay in "km." The calibration
number needs to be set at 2538. Please read over Low Flow Reading section.
- To set the calibration number, use your left button to increase the number when the arrow points up and decrease
the number when the arrow points down. Holding the left button increments rapidly through the numbers. At
the correct number, press the right button to move to the next setup.
- Step 2 Default: "RPM" will appear in the bottom right corner. If "CAD" is displayed, push the left button
to remove it.
- Step 3 Sleep: Push the right button again and "SLEEP" will appear on the display. Unless you want to put your
computer in sleep mode, press the right button to move to clock setup.
- Step 4 Clock Setup: Use the left button to toggle between 24 hr. and 12 hr. clock. Push the right button to move
to the next setup.
- Step 5 Set Clock Hour: While the hour digits blink, use the left button to advance the hour. At the correct hour,
press the right button.
- Step 6 Set Clock Minute: The minute digits blink. Advance them rapidly by holding the left button or one at a time by
pressing the left button. At the correct minute, exit Setup Mode by pressing the right button. You will
automatically enter Operation Mode.
