Chapter 4
Programming Site Data
On the PT878GC, a Program Menu (part of the Main Menu)
enables you to enter information that is specific to each site:
•Transducer types and paths
•Pipe materials and linings
•Fluid types
•Standard volume and mass flow parameters
•Skan/Measure parameters
•Analog input and output parameters
•Digital output parameters
•User functions
•Correction factors
For immediate operation, the PT878GC requires only transducer,
pipe and fluid data. However, additional information allows you
to tailor measurements to your application. Once you have
entered this data, you can save it in files and recall these files for
later use. The PT878GC can store up to 1 MB of data in the meter
at any one time. But through the infrared link, users can store an
unlimited number of sites on a PC, and then upload the sites as
they are needed.
This chapter covers entering:
•The Program Menu
•Transducer, pipe, and fluid parameters
•Input/output and other setup parameters
•User functions.
