Display
E-Series Ultrasonic meters use a 9-digit Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) that toggles to show consumption, rate of flow,
temperature,* pressure,* alarm and operating mode, and firmware version. Indicator and alarm icons appear in the display as
symbols that illuminate when the condition is active. See "Meter Alarms" on page 14 for alarm duration.

*Pressure monitoring is available when meter is equipped with the optional integrated pressure sensor. Pressure alarms, and temperature and pressure data,
are sent as part of the encoder message and surfaced in BEACON AMA when meter is used with ORION Cellular LTE-M, LTE-MS or LTE endpoints.
Activating the Display
The E-Series Ultrasonic meter display illuminates when the register cover is opened. You can change the display screen by
touching the optical communication port in the center of the register face or by closing and opening the meter lid. The
display reverts to sleep mode after a period of inactivity.
See "Display Screens" on page 10 for Information about each screen.
