Auto zero
The Auto zero is recommended for optimum performance when a flow meter is initially
installed, and it typically does not need to be performed again. However, if process
conditions drastically change, a new Auto zero is recommended. The sensor must be filled
completely with process fluid at zero flow. For more information, see Auto zero.
5.2 Local operator interface (LOI)
To access the transmitter menu, press the XMTR MENU key. Use the UP, DOWN, LEFT(E),
and RIGHT arrows to navigate the menu structure.
A complete map of the LOI menu structure is shown in LOI Menu trees.
The display can be locked to prevent unintentional configuration changes. The display lock
can be activated through a HART communication device, or by holding the UP arrow for
three seconds and then following the on-screen instructions.
