inches (15.2 cm) away from motors,
relays, or transformers.
All GPI A1 Series meters are Factory
Mutual Approved and carry a Class
1, Division 1 Approval for hazardous
environments. In addition, GPI meters
have NEMA Type 4 enclosures.
They are tested and calibrated at
the factory using state‑of‑the‑art
calibration procedures and testing
equipment.
To ensure accurate measurement,
remove all air from the system before
use.
1. Ensure some back pressure on
the turbine.

INSTALLATION
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
INSTALLATION
This computer electronics is designed specifically for use on GPI Turbine Housings. It
is also designed to work with several accessory output modules.
The CMOS, microprocessor‑based electronics have extremely low power
requirements and data retention capabilities in both RAM and ROM. Information is
clearly displayed on a large 6‑digit LCD readout with three‑point floating decimal for
totals from .001 to 999,999 (x1), 9,999,990 (x10), or 99,999,900 (x100). All
operations are easily accessed with the two buttons on the front panel.
In a GPI turbine meter, liquid flows through the turbine housing causing an internal
rotor to spin. As the rotor spins, an electrical signal is generated in the pickup coil.
This pulse data from the turbine is translated into calibrated flow units shown on the
computer's display readout.
Before installation, ensure your computer model meets your specific needs. Refer to
the Specifications Section to confirm required features. The model number of your
computer is displayed on the outside wall of the computer housing and also inside the
computer housing on the floor of the battery holder.
If you ordered your computer electronics with a turbine body, the electronics are
installed at the factory.
If you ordered your computer separately as a replacement, simply mount the
computer on your turbine body with the four screws at the corners of the faceplate.
Make sure the seal is fully seated before tightening the screws.
If you ordered the computer with a turbine body and an accessory module, please
review and thoroughly understand all installation instructions before proceeding.
All GPI turbine meters are designed to measure flow in only one direction. The
direction is indicated by the arrow on the turbine outlet port. If the computer display is
upside down in your installation, remove the four screws, turn the display 180 degrees
and reinstall the screws. (See Figure 5)

OPERATION
COMPUTER DISPLAY
ACTIVATE THE COMPUTER
All operations are revealed on the LCD using the large 6‑characters in the top row and
smaller characters and symbols in the second row. These characters and symbols
indicate information regarding totals, flow, calibration, units of measure and
operational messages.
Push button operation varies dependent upon the various modes of operation, i.e.
Normal Operation mode and Field Calibration mode. Their operation will be described
in their respective sections.
When batteries are installed, the computer is on continuously and always ready to
perform.
The computer is powered by field replaceable commercially available batteries.
Reference the computer maintenance section for battery replacement details.

When batteries are initially installed or
replaced, the initialization routine will start
the LCD display blank, then display
“HELLO” on the top row and “Q9Disp” on
the information row for one second. (See
Figure 6)
The LCD will then display “HELLO” on the
top row and “FW Vxx” on the information
row for one second. The Vxx will be the
version of the software installed on the
display. Example: “FW V03” indicates
firmware version 3 installed on the display.
(See Figure 7)
General
The computer maintains two totals; Batch total and accumulative total. The batch
total can be reset to measure flow during a single use. The accumulative total
provides continuous measurement and can only be reset by removing the batteries,
holding down the Display button, and replacing the batteries.

FIELD CALIBRATION MODE (continued)
Calibration Method Selection Menu
This menu is used to define which calibration method will be used in normal operation,
either factory calibration or field calibration. The calibration method last entered (by
the user or the factory) will be used to calculate volume.
Factory Calibration: All units are configured with a "factory" calibration. This factory
calibration (FAC icon displayed below 6-digit display) is permanently programmed into
the computer and is not user adjustable.
NOTE: The factory calibration stored in the unit will never be lost
Factory calibration is the typical use
method (see Figure 10-1). Prior to
shipping from the factory, the display will
be configured and calibrated to the meter
body on which it is installed (or going to be
installed).
When the user selects this option the FAC
icon will be “ON” to indicate that the display
is using its factory calibration table. This
method does not support field calibration.
Figure 10-1
Field Calibration: Field calibration is done using the dispense/display method.
Dispense/Display is a field calibration
method by which the user will dispense a
known volume of fluid and the software will
keep track of the pulse count during the
dispense operation. The user will then
enter the known volume into the display
and the software will calculate a K-factor
for the volume dispensed. (See Figure 10-
2)
Figure 10-2
General
The calibration method may be set by the user (either factory calibration or field
calibration). The field calibration can be modified at any time using the process
described in this section. Totals derived from the field calibration are being invoked
when the (FAC) icon is no longer visible below the 6-digit display.
Factory calibration settings are programmed into each computer during
manufacturing, using Stoddard test solvent at 70° F (21° C) for meters up to 1 inch.
Meters 1-1/2 inch and larger are factory calibrated using water at 70° F (21° C).
Settings are correct for light liquids such as water, gasoline or diesel. Readings using
the factory calibration (FAC) may not be accurate in some situations, for example,
"heavy" liquids such as motor oil, under extreme temperature conditions, non-
standard plumbing configurations or with fluids other than mentioned above.
For improved accuracy under such conditions, the computer allows for field
calibration, that is, user entry of custom calibration parameters.
12
Page 13
OPERATION (continued)
FIELD CALIBRATION MODE (continued)
Verify Accuracy before Beginning Field Calibration
For the most accurate results, dispense at a flowrate which best simulates your actual
operating conditions. Avoid "dribbling" more fluid or repeatedly starting and stopping
the flow. This can result in less accurate calibrations. Make sure you meet the
meter's minimum flowrate requirements.
Low Flow meter: 0.3 GPM (1.1 LPM or 0.25 IGPM)
1 inch meter: 3.0 GPM (11 LPM or 2.5 IGPM)
2 inch meter: 30 GPM (113 LPM or 25 IGPM)
The use of a uniformly dependable, accurate calibration container is recommended for
the most accurate results. A five gallon calibration container is available in the parts
section of this manual. For best results, the meter should be installed and purged of
air before field calibration.
Due to high flowrates on meters 2 inch and larger, it is strongly recommended that
field calibration be completed with a combination of volume and weight determined
with fine resolution scales.
Field Calibration Entry
At the beginning of the calibration entry menu, the software will allow the user to start
the calibration process or to exit back to normal operation. (See Figures 11‑1 & 11‑2)
Advance focus: Press and release the CALIBRATE button.
Advance to the next menu: Press and release the DISPLAY button.
The bottom row of characters will be in focus to indicate that the user can select
between either “Start” or “Exit” by advancing focus.
Figure 11‑1
Figure 11‑2
If “Start” is in focus when advancing to the
next menu, the software will automatically
advance to the dispense/display field
calibration menu
If “Exit” is in focus when advancing to the
next menu, the software will display a
“save” screen (see Figure 13‑3) to enter
“yes or no” to save your entries.

OPERATION (continued)
FIELD CALIBRATION MODE (continued)
Dispense Display Method
Dispense/Display is a field calibration method by which the user will dispense a known
volume of fluid and the software will keep track of the pulse count during the dispense
operation. The user will then enter the known volume into the display and the
software will calculate a K-factor for the volume dispensed. (See Figure 12-1)
The software will allow the user to
dispense a known volume in order to
create a custom K-factor. This will not over
write the existing factory calibration table.
Figure 12-1
The first screen in this calibration method
will show “run 1” indicating that computer is
waiting for flow to start. (See Figure 12-2)
NOTE: Pressing any single button while
on this screen will not have any effect.
Pressing both buttons and holding will
allow the user to exit calibration mode.
Figure 12-2
Begin dispensing into a container of known
accurate volume. As soon as pulses are
detected by the software, the screen will
switch to display the volume being
dispensed on the top row and the volume
unit on the bottom row. (See Figure 12-3)
Figure 12-3
When the user is finished with the run, modify the volume on screen to be the actual
volume dispensed. To do this pressand hold the Display button until the left most
digit begins to flash indicating it is in focus, then release the Display button.
Pressing the Calibrate button will increment the digit in focus. Pressing the Display
button will advance focus to the next digit.
Holding Display and pressing Calibrate will lock in the entered volume.
The software will then calculate the K-factor for the volume entered based on the
pulse count for the run and the volume entered. The average frequency and the K-
factor will be entered into the custom user K-factor table for run 1.

OPERATION (continued)
FIELD CALIBRATION MODE (continued)
Exit Dispense Display Method
This menu is used to indicate to the user they are exiting the field calibration mode
menu. The user can exit any of the calibration methods at any time. To exit, press
and hold the Display and Calibrate buttons simultaneously for 3 seconds; the
software will display a three second count down (see Figure 13-1), then reset to show
the exit display. (See Figure 13-2)
Figure 13-1
NOTE: After 3 seconds, “FldCAL” will then
be displayed on the top row and “Exit” on
the bottom row (see Figure 13-2) until the
user releases both buttons. The software
will store the sorted table of frequencies
and K-factors, then exit back to normal
mode.

COMPUTER MAINTENANCE
Batteries
The computer electronics are powered by alkaline batteries. Removing the batteries
before storing the meter will extend battery life since the computer is always on (either
standby or active) when the batteries are installed.
If the meter's readout should become dim, blank or the low battery message appears
(see below), the batteries should be replaced.
Note: If the battery life is sufficiently low,
“LOWBAT” will be displayed in the
message area on the bottom row of
characters. This low battery message will
be displayed automatically.
