MULTICAL® 803 uses time-based integration, which means that accumulated volume and energy are calculated at
fixed time intervals and independently of the water velocity.
MULTICAL® 803 can only be mains-supplied. The calculator has a backup battery, but in normal operation, the
calculator is mains-supplied. Therefore, the calculator display will always be switched on and the integration interval
will always be 2 seconds. Only the backlight of the display is configured via the L code.
It is possible to choose between two integration modes; one mode in which the backlight of the display remains on
and one mode in which the backlight of the display turns off after 15 seconds after the latest registered keystroke.
Via the “heart beat” indication in the bottom left corner of the display, the calculator display will at all times show
that the calculator is active.

Note: When MULTICAL® 803 is powered by the backup battery, the calculator automatically adjusts the integration
interval to 8 seconds to conserve power.
Fast mode (2 s)
In fast mode, the integration interval is set to 2 seconds, which means that the calculator calculates accumulated
volume and energy every 2 seconds.
Fast mode (2 s) is recommended for all systems including those with tap water exchanger. Fast mode (2 s) is
particularly suitable for applications where the calculator is provided with analog outputs.
