2.  Flow Alert column:  Here you can choose between 

“Enabled” and “Disabled” per zone. If you selected 
“Disabled”, it means that zone will NOT shut down 
for out-of-tolerance flow conditions. SmartLink Flow 
Aircard will still continue to calculate flow statistics for 
the zone and they will be displayed on the web screen 
and in the “Reports” section of SmartLink. 

3.  Valve Size column: Select the size of valve on for this 

zone.  This can be done before or after flow averages 
have been established. 

4.  Low and High Limit columns: Individual zone Low/High 

Limit settings can be established two ways. 

a.  Manually select the Low and High Limits for each 

zone. Refer to the “Running Average” to gauge the 
best flow limits. Select the Low Flow Limit (in GPMs) 
then the High Flow Limit (in GPMs). Be mindful that 
false alarms can occur if the Flow Limits are set too 
close to the “Running Average”.

a.  Or allow the SmartLink Flow Aircard to 

automatically set the “Low/High Flow Limits” by 
using the “Low/High Flow Tolerance” % settings 
you entered earlier in the “Global Flow Settings”. 
This will calculate the “Low/High Flow Limits” from 

the “Running Average” automatically. For example, 
if a zone’s “Running Average” is 100GPM and the 
“Global Low/High Tolerance” was set to 25%, the 
zone’s Low and High Flow Limits would be set 
to 75GPM and 125GPM. Manually setting the Low 
and High Flow Limits, as described above (1), will 
override this.

5.  Click “Save” and you’ll be returned to the Flow page 

where you can review the saved information. 

What happens next?

When a zone or zones Low and High Flow Limits have 

been crossed:

 An alert will be sent to whoever is managing 

this system. Reminder: You/They must be set up to receive 
email alerts for these events in your SmartLink Account. Go 
to “My Account” to add the alerts. These alerts will also be 
viewable within SmartLink. 

When a zone or zones Low and High Flow Limits have 

been crossed:

 The affected zone/s or the entire program 

will be shutdown.
