Chapter 2. Initial Setup
2.1 Introduction
This chapter provides instructions for programming the minimum amount of data required to place the Model
XMT868i flowmeter into operation. Before the Model XMT868i can begin taking measurements and displaying valid
data, the current system and pipe parameters must be entered. In addition, a 2-Channel meter requires that each
channel be activated prior to use. Additional programming options provide access to the more advanced features of
the Model XMT868i, but this information is not required to begin taking measurements.
Note: See the Programming Manual for information on those User Program features not covered in this chapter.
You can program the XMT868i using either the keypad on the lower part of the glass enclosure, or PanaView™, a
PC-based, non-resident software program that communicates with the XMT868i using its RS232 serial port.
PanaView supplements basic XMT868i functions with several additional capabilities. With PanaView, you can:
•
load and save site file data
• create and save graph and log files
• display text output and graphs of live measurement data
• create custom templates for displaying text, graph and log data
• interface with multiple Panametrics instruments.
This chapter focuses on programming using the infrared keypad. For information on programming the XMT868i
using PanaView, refer to Appendix C of the Programming Manual .
