M92

Displays the estimated fluid sound velocity. If this value has an obvious

difference with the actual fluid sound speed, pipe parameters entered and the

transducer installation should be checked again.

M93

Displays total transit time and delta time(transit time difference)

M94

Displays the Reynolds number and the pipe factor used by the flow rate

program.

M95

M96

Not used

Not used

M97

Command to record the pipe parameters entered by the user either to the

built-in data logger or to RS-232C serial interface

M98

Command to record the diagnostic information either to the built-in data

logger or to RS-232C serial interface

M99

Command to copy the current display either to the built-in data logger or to

RS-232C serial interface

M+0

Browse the 64 recorded instrument power-on and power-off date and time

with the flow rate at the time of power on and off

M+1

Displays the total working time of the instrument

M+2

Displays the last power-off date and time

M+3

Displays the last power-off flow rate

M+4

Displays the times of instrument powered on(the instrument has been

powered on)

M+5

A scientific calculator for the convenience of field working.

All the values are in single accuracy.

The drawback is that the user can't operate it by direct key-pressing
