    How to fix a zero totalizer K-Factor on GF Signet 5500 Measuring Instruments?
    • W
      William PachecoAug 7, 2025
      If the totalizer K-Factor on your GF Measuring Instruments is zero, it must be corrected. Enter a K-Factor that is greater than zero.
  • L
    Laura ParkerAug 12, 2025
    What to do if GF Signet 5500 shows 'SETUP READ ERROR Press any Key'?
    • B
      burtonjodyAug 13, 2025
      If you see a 'SETUP READ ERROR Press any Key' message on your GF Measuring Instruments, it means a power fault happened while saving the setup menu entry. To fix this, press any key to reload the factory default settings. After that, you'll need to reprogram your flow system setup parameters. Don't worry, the totalizer displays will not be affected and will continue from where they left off after the instrument resets.

    What to do if Relay 1 pulse width is too large on GF Measuring Instruments?
    • B
      Brenda CarrAug 18, 2025
      If the Relay 1 pulse width is too large for the frequency input, or if the pulse volume is too small on your GF Measuring Instruments, reduce the Relay 1 pulse width setting or increase the pulse volume setting.

    What to do if the pulse volume setpoint is outside the range on GF Signet 5500?
    • C
      ccruzAug 25, 2025
      If you're experiencing issues related to the pulse volume setpoint on your GF Measuring Instruments, ensure that you enter a volumetric setpoint within the range of 0.0001 to 99999 engineering units.

    How to fix a display timebase that is too large on GF Signet 5500?
    • P
      Phillip LopezAug 30, 2025
      If the display timebase on your GF Measuring Instruments is too large, change the flow timebase (S=Seconds, M=Minutes, H=Hours, D=Days) in the CALIBRATE menu to a smaller value.
