RATE METER PROGRAMMING
If the functionality has been set to FN1, then the unit will operate as a
programmable rate meter utilizing a time interval (1/Tau) method. To
enter the Program mode, hold down the Edit key and the "5" key during
power-up. Use the Edit key to move from one parameter to the next,
and the "1" key to scroll through the parameter choices. Holding down
the Edit key for 5 seconds will return the unit to Operation mode.

Output 1 Time:
Output 1 will be active when the rate value is below Preset 1. Setting this parameter to
"On" enables this function to operate while a setting of "Off" will disable the function.

Output 2 Time:
Output 2 will be active when the rate value is above Preset 2. Setting this parameter to
"On" enables this function to operate while a setting of "Off" will disable the function.
Note: It is necessary to have a Dual Preset version to utilize either of the outputs in Rate
Meter mode. Single Preset units will operate as a rate meter with no outputs.
