4230 Flow Meter
Section 2 Programming

If FLOWLINK appears for sampler pacing, the operation of
sampler pacing has been determined by choices made in
FLOWLINK software. FLOWLINK controls the flow meter
remotely, via phone lines and a modem, or locally with a laptop
computer and cable. In any event, if the sampler pacing defi-
nition is controlled by FLOWLINK, it can only be changed
through FLOWLINK. If you select CONDITIONAL for sampler
pacing, the following will appear:

(TEMPERATURE), (YSI pH), (YSI DO), (YSI CONDUCTIVITY)
and (YSI TEMP) may also appear. Note that all the conditions
shown above are in parentheses. Which ones actually appear
depend on your previous programming selections. At least one of
these menu options will be available to you. Pressing the right
arrow key may be necessary to bring all items onto the display,
(provided they are available for use.)
LEVEL will only appear if the flow meter is set up to measure
level or flow. RAINFALL, D.O., pH, and TEMPERATURE mea-
surement require the appropriate sensor probe be used with the
flow meter. Remember that only one parameter condition (D.O.
or pH) can be measured by the flow meter at a time.
RAINFALL can appear if you have a rain gauge attached to the
flow meter. TEMPERATURE can be measured alone, or with
either parameter probe.
D.O. and/or pH may not appear on the menu, depending on selec-
tions made in step 1. If you do not see the item you need, return
to step 1, and recheck your programming. If you did not make
the proper selections there, certain menu options will not appear
here, as they would have been locked out. The YSI 600 conditions
of pH, DO, CONDUCTIVITY, and TEMPERATURE will only
appear on the menu if you have turned them on in steps 1 and 3.
For any of these conditions, you can set the point at which a
change in the selected condition causes the flow meter to send a
flow pulse to the sampler. The following menu will appear:
CONDITION
• (LEVEL) • • (FLOW RATE) • • (RAINFALL) • • (D.O.) • • (pH) •
CONDITION
• (LEVEL) • • (FLOW RATE) • • (RAINFALL) • • (D.O.) • • (pH) •
(Selected CONDITION)
• GREATER THAN • • LESS THAN • • RATE OF CHANGE •
