Selecting Error Handling
(cont.)
For the
AVE
mode, the
2-path error handling
option is intended for
applications where two sets of transducers are installed in the same
location in the same pipe to improve accuracy. With this function
enabled, the Model GS868 performs error handling only if both
channels are in error. If this function is disabled, error handling
occurs when either channel goes into error.
•
Press
[F1] = NO
to disable 2-path error handling, or
•
Press [
F2] = YES
to enable 2-path error handling.
Specific responses of the display and the totalizer to the 2-path error
handling option are listed in Table 1-10 below.
The User Program automatically returns to the
Global I/O
prompt.
