MTEK6000 SERIES USER'S MANUAL
C - 2 January 2002
Base Temperature
The Base Temperature parameter appears as a
factor in the Corrected Volume calculation. It
is one of the factors used to correct the
flowing volume, as registered by the meter
itself, to the base volume used for calculating
“Standard Volume”. The default value of this
parameter is 60.000 degrees F.
Calibrate Mode Time-out
The fractional portion of this parameter is the
Calibrate Mode Time-out. It controls how
long the unit will remain powered up in the
calibration mode if no key is being pressed.
For example, a calibration time-out of 30
minutes would be entered as XX.30. The
default value is 60.30.
Calibration Password
A password can be entered to prevent
unauthorized users from accessing calibration
mode. The value may be up to six digits long
(including the decimal point and sign). The
Default value is 0.
Configuration Password
A password can be entered to prevent
unauthorized users from accessing
configuration mode. The value may be up to
six digits long (including the decimal point
and sign). The Default value is 0.
Corrected Pulse Output -Cubic Unit / Pulse
This parameter should reflect the value of the
corrected pulse output sent from the station to
an external device. For example, if each
output pulse represents 1000 cubic feet, then
this parameter should be set to 1000. The
Default value is 1000.
Corrected Pulse Out Enable/Disable
Corrected pulses can be sent to an external
device by enabling the Pulse Output Channel.
The rate at which pulses are generated is
determined by the Corrected Pulse Out - CF
per Pulse parameter. To enable Relay #1 for
pulse output, enter a value of 35.8. Enter -1
to disable. The Default value is -1.
Corrected Volume
The corrected volume is calculated based
upon AGA report #7 or #8 and reflects the
corrected volumetric flow taking the base
conditions into consideration. The Initial
value is 0.
Corrected Volume (Pressure Only)
The corrected volume is calculated based
upon AGA report #7 and reflects the
corrected volumetric flow taking only the
Pressure base conditions into consideration.
The temperature factors have no effect. The
Initial value is 0.
Corrected Volume and Flow Multiplier
This multiplier specifies the output value for
corrected volume and flow. For example, if
the device is to measure flow in thousands of
cubic feet (MCF), select Thousands (1000's)
of units from the pick list. The Default value
is 1000.
Ten Thousands (10,000's) of units 10000
Thousands (1000's) of units 1000
Hundreds (100's) of units 100
Tens (10's) of units 10
Single (1's) units 1
Counter Fault Monitoring (EFC Only)
This parameter can be used to enable or
disable fault monitoring on the main counter
#1. Form C (3-wire) input is required for this
function. In this mode, two working counters
are monitored for discrepancies. A “Delta”
value will be accumulated which reflects any
discrepancies between the counters. If any of
the dual-reed switches should be defective,
and the “Delta” exceeds the Counter Fault
Threshold parameter, the input pulses will
automatically switch to either working single-
ended counter. The EFC will generate a
Faulty Counter alarm. To enable, set this
parameter to 1 and to disable set to 0. The
default value is 0 for disable.
