Calibrating the Intelis Gas Meter
FDM allows users to re-calibrate the Intelis Gas Meter accuracy. The Intelis Gas Meter Test
Mode and a prover station are used to confirm the accuracy of the meter and FDM is used to
recalibrate the meter if necessary.
The Intelis Gas Meter cannot be programmed (configured) or calibrated while the meter is in
Test Mode. You must exit Test Mode to program or configure the meter. Attempting to program
or configure parameters while the meter is in Test Mode will result in a temporary error in FDM. If
the valve icon is blinking, the meter is unable to go into Test Mode. Wait a few minutes and try
again.
Some meter configuration is required for the meter to communicate with the prover type.
Configuration is completed using the FDM configuration (snapshot) file or using the handheld
programmer and FDM Tools.
Intelis Gas Meters are calibrated at the factory prior to shipment. Recalibrating the Intelis Gas
Meter requires FDM and the results of the accuracy test. For proving instructions, refer to earlier
chapters in this guide. For more information about calibrating the Intelis Gas Meter using FDM,
see the
FDM Mobile Application Guide
. For more documentation information, see

Adjusting the Calibration
Follow the steps below to send new calibration values to the meter.
1. Run the meter on a prover.
2. Exit Test Mode.
3. Enter the prover station results values into FDM.
Note:
The Intelis Gas Meter must be unsealed to adjust the meter calibration.
4. Wait for the meter to complete calibration.
5. Enter Test Mode.
6. Re-prove the meter to verify the calibration.
7. Exit Test Mode.
