1. Description
FM-1D/K is a µP-controlled frequency
converter with display.
It converts pulses into proportional current for flowrate display.
Input from the pulsers are converted to:
• Standardized current
• Pulse totalization
• LED display

ton must be pressed.
3. Save To save the chosen settings the SELECT-but
ton must be pressed after changing the last right
hand digit.
The settings will not be lost after a power failure.
Setting example
Water meter WPD DN 80
Pulser Opto OD 01 (1 imp = 1 Ltr.)
Current output 0 ... 20 mA
Max. flowrate 0 ... 100 m

1. Flowrate range
After switching on, the display indicates ”0000.”.
Pressing either the (+) or (-)-button the FM-1 D/K
changes to the programming mode. The left digit of the
display will flash. Set the digit ”0” with the (+) or (-)-button. Pressing the SELECT-button changes to the second digit. As described set the 2.,3.,4. digit and the decimal point.The display should indicate ”0100.”. The possible flowrate range is 0.001 ... 9999. m

2. Counter reading
The FM-1 D/K counter reading can be set to match the
counter reading of the water meter. When the upper status LED blinks the first 4 digits can be set and when
