Step 10 Define the totaliser scaling factor

In this example the rate display is in
litres per minute but the total display is
required in cubic metres:

  SCALE-t  =     Units of rate display

                             Units of total display

There are 1,000 litres in a cubic metre
thus:

                    =            litres
                             cubic metres

                     =            1 litre

                                                 1/(1000) litres

                       SCALE-t   =            1000

From the main menu select 'SCALE-t'
and press 

P

 to reveal the current five

digit dividing factor.   Using the 

Up

 and

Down

 buttons to adjust the flashing

digit, and the P button to transfer
control between digits, set 'SCALE-t' to
1000.0

The position of the decimal point is
defined by moving the flashing digit to
the second least significant position and
operating the 

Up

 and 

Down

 buttons

simultaneously.

When 'SCALE-t' has been set to 1000.0
press 

E

 to return to the main menu.

 

Step 11 Define percentage clip-off

Totalisation is to be inhibited at flow
rates below 1% of maximum flow.  To
define this cut-off point select 'CLIP-
OFF' from the main menu and press 

P

which will reveal the current setting.
The figure can be increased or
decreased using the 

Up

 and 

Down

buttons.   After adjustment press 

E

 to

return to the main menu.

Step 12 Reset the grand total to zero

To reset the grand total to zero select
'CLr. Gtot' from the main menu and
press

 P

 which will cause the instrument

to display 'Clr. no'.   Toggle this to 'CLr.
YES' using the 

Up

 or 

Down

 push-

buttons and press 

P

 which will result in

a '0000' prompt.  Using the 

Up

, and

Down

 buttons and the

 P

 button to move

to the next digit, confirm the request by
entering the password 'SurE'.  Note S is
entered as 5.  Pressing

 E

 will then reset

the grand total counter to zero and
return the instrument to the 'CLr. Gtot'
prompt in the main menu.

Step 13 Set the security code

Entering a security code prevents
unauthorised access to the programme
functions.   Select 'COdE' from the
main menu and press 

P

 which for a

new instrument will reveal the default
code '0000' with the most significant
digit flashing.  Adjust this digit using the

Up

 and 

Down

 buttons to display 1.

Pressing the

  P

 button will transfer

control to the next digit which should be
set to 2.  Finally when the new code
1209 has been entered, press 

E

 to

return to the main programme menu.

Step 14 Return to the operating mode

Following completion of programming
and calibration, return the instrument to
the operating mode by pressing 

E

. All

the BA354ND programming functions
will now be stored in permanent
memory and protected from accidental
adjustment by the security code.
