6.0 GAS FLOW USAGE LOG
6.1
Description
The GFM has a gas flow volume accumulator and gas flow accumulated timer which
can be used to display total gas usage and Total gas flow Time. This function allows
the user to measure the total cubic ft. or liters of gas used from the last time that the
accumulator was reset. The maximum volume displayed is 6550.0 cubic ft. or cubic
Liters. If the usage exceeds this value the accumulator will be reset to 0 and will
count up from zero as the usage increases.
