8.3.1.1 Substitute Compressibility
For the selected method, it is checked at every calculation whether the measured value of
pressure and temperature is within the range of the method validity. If a value is outside of this
range, substitute compressibility K is used for the conversion. The substitute compressibility value
must be entered by the user when configuring the device Fig. 67.

8.3.2 PT, T Conversion
If it is required to set the device as PT or T corrector, then the device does not calculate gas
compressibility, but a fixed constant value is used as the degree of compressibility K to calculate
the conversion number K. The constant value of the degree of compressibility K is set in the
device parameters for parameter C (Fig. 67). For the value "Compressibility" it is necessary to set
