Diagnostics Menu 

The diagnostics menu provides some additional information about the heat meter and its setup. The 

menu can be accessed by pressing the 

 key from flow reading screen. The menu shown below 

describes the various diagnostics items.  
 

DIAGNOSTICS MENU 

 

 

 

 

   

The Estimated TA (Time of Arrival) and Actual TA show 
the theoretical and measured transit times. These values 
should  be  within  several  per  cent  of  each  other.  If  the 
actual value is displayed as 9999.99 then a usable signal 
could not be detected. 

The gain on line one is an indicator of the signal strength. 
A good signal should have a gain of between 600 to 970. 
The  number  in  parentheses  is  the  switch  setting  and 
should  be  x1  or  x10.  Gains  of  X100  show  that  the 
received signal is too small to be used. 
 
The  second  line  shows  the  current  time  differential 
between  the upstream and downstream signals.

 

The unit’s software version is shown on line 1. 
Line 2 shows the unit’s serial number. 

This  screen  will  be  displayed  if  the  Pulse  output  is  on, 
and  show  data  related  to  the  mode  of  operation.  This 
includes a live display of the Frequency output. 

Press 

To  exit  the  Diagnostics 
menu 

N.  B.    The  keypad  is  less  responsive  in  the 
Diagnostics Menu and longer key presses are 
required.
