3. Register programming
In programming mode only, pressing and releasing the
TOTAL
button advances to the
next parameter on the current screen. Pressing and releasing the
RESET
button changes
the current flashing selection to another selection (such as “L” to “GAL”).
To enter the programming mode, press the TOTAL button three times and
then press the RESET button three times (the time lag between pressing
both buttons six times must be within two seconds).
Changing the unit of measure and scale factor
(for all ILR models with display)
3.1. Unit of measure
Figure 5: Unit of measure & scale factor programming
1. Press and release the
RESET
button to change the unit of measure (L,
GAL, QT, PT).
2. Press and release the
TOTAL
button to select desired the unit of measure
(the selected unit of measure will flash).
3. When the appropriate unit of measure is selected, press the
TOTAL
button
to advance to the scale factor programming.
3.2. Scale factor
(for all ILR models with display)
The register collects input pulses from the oval gear meter and then determines the
appropriate display output using the scale factor. This scale factor varies depending
upon the viscosity of the liquid being measured, therefore calibrating the meter and
register in the appropriate liquid will affect the scale factor. The scale factor is
displayed as 5 digits (on the top row) next to the unit of measure. The scale factor
consists of 1 integer digit and 4 decimal digits (see figure 5).
1. Press the
TOTAL
button to select a digit (selected digits flash). After cycling
through all 5 digits of the scale factor, the register will return to the unit of
measure selection.
2. Press
RESET
to change the selected digit. The scale factor must fall
between the values of 0.5000 and 2.0000. The Badger Meter factory preset
is set between those values at 1.0000.
3. When finished adjusting the unit of measure and scale factor, press and hold
the
TOTAL
button for one second to advance to the Pulse Rate section.
NOTE:
Error checking will not allow the user to advance to the next screen.
