Menu Option Unit Description
1up2 0 0 Hz Shows the trip point in Hertz to change from channel 1 (low flow) to channel 2 (medium flow)
2up3 0 0 Hz Shows the trip point in Hertz to change from channel 2 (medium flow) to channel 3 (high flow)
3down2 0 0 Hz Shows the trip point in Hertz to change from channel 3 (high flow) to channel 2 (medium flow)
2down1 0 0 Hz Shows the trip point in Hertz to change from channel 2 (medium flow) to channel 1 (low flow)
When setting these values, leave some leeway between setpoints For example, if channel 1 is set and calibrated for
20…800 Hz and channel 2 for 500…1200 Hz, set setpoint 1 to 2 at about 600 Hz and set setpoint 2 to 1 at about 550 Hz This
allows room for variance and avoids getting the flow computer into a switching loop
Automatic Switching
When a setpoint is activated, the flow computer changes the selected channel The flow computer then powers up a relay and
closes a valve, or powers down a relay and opens a valve In fail safe mode, the valves automatically open with no power and
close with power
Event Oesult
Low flow signal from meter 1 Relays 1 and 2 powered up, closing valves for channels 2 and 3
Medium flow signal from meter 2 Relay 2 powered up, closing the valve for channel 3
High flow signal from meter 3 Both relays powered down
