Calibration

Aquis

t

 Foam Pump

The Aquis

t

 system is able to be field calibrated using the con­

trol function buttons on the operating interface terminal (OIT),
see Figure 8.

Only units of measure, water flow and the foam percent­
age default can be field set.

A. Entering Calibration Mode

1.

Entering calibration is accomplished by using the con­
trol unit functions buttons.

2.

To enter this function, press and hold the 

SELECT 

but­

ton for minimum of five (5) seconds. The OIT will dis­
play “5 SEC”.

3.

Continue to hold the 

SELECT

4.

While the 

SELECT 

button is depressed, push the 

UP

and 

DOWN 

arrow buttons at the same time. The display

will show 

CAL

F1

.

5.

Use the 

UP 

button to advance to the next parameter

(F2, F3, F4).

6.

Use the 

DOWN 

button to back up to a previous para­

meter (F2, F1).

7.

To edit a parameter, press the 

SELECT 

button at the

associated Fn prompt.

B. F1 - Default Mix Percentage

1.

At the 

F1

 prompt, press the 

SELECT

 button.

2.

Use the 

UP 

and 

DOWN

 arrow buttons to select the de­

fault

and 6.0%.

3.

When finished, press the

Push the 

SELECT

 button at the 

F2

 prompt. The display

will show the current setting.

2.

Use the 

UP 

and 

DOWN

 arrow buttons to select one of

the following measurement units:

·

GAL 

will select U.S. Gallons

·

IPL 

will select Imperial Gallons

·

LTR 

will select Metric Liters

3.

Pushing the 

SELECT 

button will save the displayed

selection. This will allow for calibration of the water flow
in the units of measurement selected.

D. F3 - Flow Rate Calibration

1.

Press the 

SELECT

 button at the 

F3

 prompt. The

current measured flow rate will be displayed. Es­
tablish a flow using an accurate flow measuring
device.

2.

Once this is established, press the 

UP 

 or 

 DOWN

 but­

ton to advance to the calibration step. If the displayed
flow rate is correct, press the 

SELECT

 button to return

back to the 

F3

 prompt. If there is insufficient flow, the

display will show 

LoFL

 for two (2) seconds, then return

back to the 

F3

 prompt.

3.

The display will now display 

50

 (starting value) or the

last calibration value entered.

4.

Use the 

UP 

and 

DOWN

 arrow buttons to change the

displayed value to match the actual flow rate according
to the flow measuring device. If the button is only
pressed momentarily, the display increments or decre­
ments by one (1). If the button is held, the display will
increment or decrement by five (5).

5.

Once the correct flow is achieved, pushing the 

SELECT

F3

 prompt.

E. F4 - System Lock

3.

Press the SELECT button and “F4” will be displayed.

4.

Pressing the FOAM button saves the settings, locks the
system and cannot be unlocked except at a qualified
Waterous Service Center.

F. Saving Calibration

To save all the calibration settings to flash memory, press
the 

FOAM

 button while at the
