The full scale flow rate 2 function sets the maximum flow rate for range 2, when
the autorange function [Autorange = ON/OFF] in MEASURE menu (menu 4) is
turned on. Range 2 uses the unit of measure and time base setting from full scale
flow rate 1.
The maximum allowable flow rate is a function of the diameter of the flow sensor.
Regardless of the diameter, the maximum flow rate setting cannot exceed a
velocity of 10 m/s. The following rules apply to the maximum flow rate setting.
These may also affect the selection of the unit of measure and the time base.
• The largest numeric value representing flow is 9999. Larger values use units
with multipliers.
• The full scale flow rate setting cannot exceed 10 m/s
• The full scale flow rate must be greater than 0.4 m/s

This function is only available when output pulse 1 in OUTPUTS menu (menu 7)
[Out1 = XXXXX] is set to , Pulses- or Pulses±. When active, scaled output
pulse 1 sets the unit of measure and the volume or mass that equates to one
pulse. This pulse weight setting is limited by the diameter of the flow sensor.
The list of units of measure available for selection can be in US/IMPERIAL or SI
units depending on the pulse 1 unit type [Pl1 unit = IMPERIAL] setting in UNITS
menu (menu 2). In the same way, the list will show mass units, if mass units are
enabled [Mass units= OFF] in menu 2. The tables below show the available units
of measure.
