For the Operator, the following functions are available:
Display flowrate / total or flowrate
This is the main display information of the H5012-P. After selecting any other information, it
will always return to this main display automatically.
Total is displayed on the upper-line of the display and flowrate on the bottom line.
It is possible to display flowrate only with the large 17mm digits; in this instance press the
SELECT-key to read the total.
When "-------" is shown, then the flowrate value is too high to be displayed. The arrows v
indicate the increase/decrease of the flowrate trend.
Clear total
The value for total can be re-initialized. To do so, press CLEAR twice. After pressing CLEAR
once, the flashing text "PUSH CLEAR" is displayed. To avoid re-initialization at this stage,
press another key than CLEAR or wait for 20 seconds.
Re-initialization of total DOES NOT influence the accumulated total.
Display accumulated total
When the SELECT-key is pressed, total and accumulated total are displayed. The
accumulated total cannot be re-initialized. The value will count up to 99,999,999,999. The unit
and number of decimals are displayed according to the configuration settings for total.
Low-battery alarm
When the battery voltage drops, it must be replaced. At first "low-battery" will flash, but as
soon as it is displayed continuously, the battery MUST be replaced shortly after!
Only original batteries supplied by the manufacturer may be used, else the guarantee and
liability will be terminated. The remaining lifetime after the first moment of indication is
generally several days up to some weeks.
