Now that the sensor is isolated in the chamber of the Packing Gland
Assembly, the FT3 meter is ready to either perform the Zero CAL-CHECK™
test or set the Field baseline for future tests.

When the meter has completed the test, be sure to open the shut-off valve,
slide the meter downward until the ferrule rests in the fittings, and tighten the
small nut of the fittings in order to seal the probe in the stream again.

Check to be sure the meter has returned to normal operation.

Starting the Field Baseline Set

After the meter has been installed and wired correctly (see the Fox FT3
Instruction Manual that came with the meter), power on the meter.
The meter should default to display #1. Press "

F1

" to program the meter.

Press
