DigitalFlow™ XGM868i Startup Guide

3.4 The Optional PanaView Display

The components of the PanaView text display appear in Figure 17, along with a typical flow rate readout.

Figure 17: A Typical PanaView Text Display Pane

As shown in Figure 17, the text pane includes the following information:

•

Channel Number

•

Flow Parameter

•

Units of Measure

•

Flow Rate Value

The example in Figure 17 is typical, but the first three items in the list above may be reprogrammed to display a variety
of alternative choices. See the next section for detailed instructions on programming these parameters.

Note:

Error code messages may appear in the lower left corner of the PanaView text display window. For
information about these error codes and how to respond to them, refer to Chapter 2,

Error Codes

, in the

Service Manual.

Proceed to the

Taking Measurements

section to use the XGM868i.
