All remote converter installations require 

that Menu A be setup in the field. 

Excitation Current from meter tube 

MUST be set in A1 and meter Size 

MUST be set in A2.  Please note that 

meters larger than 8" require lower 

excitation frequency. 

 

NOTE: LF 664 Large meters 

require P menu set to K-Factor
