Section 2
How to Enter Alphanumeric Strings
This section shows how to edit an alphanumeric menu cell. An alphanumeric string is a series of num-
bers and letters including the Quotation Mark, the Pound Sign symbols and/or a space. The meter uses
these symbols to identify a specific site setup or user-modified table. Menu cells that accept alphanu-
meric strings provide an eight-character entry field. The following example uses the [Create/Name Site]
menu cell. We will create a new site setup named [SITE1].
NOTE: This procedure is the first action required to start a new site setup.
The first time you access [Create/Name Site] you will see a “greater than” symbol and blank second line
(as shown in the left-hand figure below). Use to access the alphanumeric entry field at the first
character position. Note that the prompt changes to a question mark (?) as shown in the right-hand
figure below.
z
Use to move cursor to move to the third number position. Use to scroll the number list to [5]. Use

to register the new pipe outer diameter. This moves the screen to the next menu cell [Pipe Mate-
rial] as shown in the right-hand figure. You can use to move back to [Pipe OD] to check that the
flow computer accepted the new value.
z
With the cursor at the first character position, use to scroll through the character list until you see
[S]. Use to move the cursor to the second position. Use to scroll the list back down to [I]. Use
to move the cursor to the third position. Use to scroll list to [T]. Use ENTER to move to the fourth
position. Use to scroll list to [E]. Use to the fifth position. Use ENTER to scroll list to [1] (numbers
appear after you scroll down past letter A as shown in the left-hand figure below). Use
 to create
the new site setup: SITE1. This selects the next menu cell: [Site Security] as shown in the right-hand
figure below.
