to highlight the desired flowrate of /sec, /min, /hr, or /day and press ENTER.
5.6.5.17 Low Cutoff
This function allows the user to program a low flow cutoff. If Totalization is not wanted below a
predetermined flow rate, Low Cutoff can be set at that rate and Totalization will be shut off if the point level
falls below the preset value.
Selecting Low Cutoff - Use the UP (↑) or DOWN (↓) Arrow Keys to highlight “Low cutoff” and press
ENTER. The display reads “cutÎXXXXXXXXXXXXXÍ”. Use the Numeric keypad to move to a position to
