the sensor since its connection.
Recording Interval
This controls the time interval before a new flow record and trace is saved to file
when the save-to-feature is in use.
Serial Port
This allows you to setup the RS485 port. The default setting when interfacing
with the software is 19200 Baud rate, 8 bits, No Parity, 1 Stop bit. There is
normally no requirement to change the default parameters, as the COM port
number is automatically detected.

Allows you to select the default folder for where the data files are to be saved to.

file. This will be saved to MicroFlowPC installation folder, and prefixed with
‘ParamMicroFlow’.
Load Parameters to Device
Load the parameters from a saved parameter file onto the MicroFlow sensor. This
should only be used with a file prefixed with ‘ParamMicroFlow’.

on the MicroFlow sensor. Any customised parameters will be erased during a
firmware upgrade, it is recommended to save parameters before performing an
upgrade.
*Switch Device into Bootloader

be used to connect to the sensor in this mode. The MicroFlow will resume normal
operation if no connection is established after approximately 30 seconds.
