10. Programming

To proceed with programming, first locate the DIP switches on the back side 

of the Digital display. Refer to the circled area in Fig.3.2.

Important Note: It is important to select the correct DIP switch position 

based on BOTH the model (first column) and the pipe size (second column) 

shown in the table below as multiple FlowVis models exist for the same pipe 

diameter.
