2-4.3 Power-UP BIT Procedure/Sequence
a. Switch power to the ADFM off.
b. Switch power on again; however, make sure at least ten minutes
have passed since all power was switched off. The ADFM’s LCD
display should show firmware version and error code map followed
by the “wake up message”:
RD Instruments:
-------------------
Acoustic Doppler
Flow Meter
c. The ADFM’s LCD display should begin displaying the results of the
power-up BIT, as these tests are executed. The power-up BIT tests
will take approximately one or two minutes to perform after which
the LCD display will show the firmware version and BIT error code
map (see
Chapter 5 for details):
ADFM Ver. V6.xx
09000080
d. To repeat the power-up BIT tests you may turn and release the Reset
key switch, located on the front panel of the Electronics Unit.
2-5 Final Preparations for Use
2-5.1 Measure Pipe or Channel Geometry
In order for the ADFM to measure flow accurately, it must have information
about the pipe or channel in which it is installed. Refer to Figure 2-27 for a
diagram of the channel geometries directly supported by the ADFM. The
pipe/channel shape must be symmetrical about the vertical centerline. Ap-
plication of the ADFM in pipes or channels of other geometries may be
possible. Please contact MGD Technologies Inc. with specific details of
your application for further information.
