2.6.6 TOTALIZER SCALE
After you select totalizer units, the meter automatically computes a prefix to provide the best combina- tion of capacity and resolution (e.g. MGAL/MIN). The [Totalizer Scale] menu cell shows the results. If the displayed scaling is not suitable, you can edit it by accessing the option list. Note that this scaling applies to all flow total data displayed on the flow display screen, even if the units do not appear next to the data (because there may not be room on the screen). Always keep this prefix in mind when you enter

2.6.7 TOTAL RESOLUTION
The meter assigns multiplier prefixes for the flow total units you selected (e.g., MGPM). It provides three resolution (or capacity) levels. Therefore, actual Totalizer display units depend on the selected multiplier. Check the total units by accessing the [Totalizer Scale] menu cell.
If you use the totalizer (TOTCNT) relay output, take into account:
a)The TOTCNT relay output pulses at a maximum rate of .5 pulses per sec. (.5 Hz).
b)The meter sends a totalizer output pulse for every advance of the rightmost visible totalizer digit.
It is possible for a high flow rate to persist long enough to exceed the relay output’s .5 Hz rate. If this occurs, the meter will store excess pulses in an overflow buffer, and route them back to the relay when the flow rate drops enough to allow the TOTCNT output to
