®
III’s Set-up
Start the program by double-clicking with the left-hand button of
the mouse on the MAXICAL
®
III icon. Establish serial data
communication, as described, and click on Read Meter.
After a short wait the data transmitted will be displayed on the
computer monitor.
Once the meter has been read, the status field at the bottom right
of the menu will indicate the extent to which the meter can be
programmed.
11.5 Partial Programming
MAXICAL
®
III is supplied with a block so that only partial
programming is possible. (V=1). In practice, this means that all
legal measuring data A-B-CCC, the meter’s serial number and any
Qmax are not accessible.
This block is used for all type-approved meters that are to be
verified.
11.6 Total Programming
When MAXICAL
®
III is supplied without the program block
(V=0), all the meter’s measuring parameters can be programmed
via the programming software.
Note: MAXICAL
®
III’s daily data and accumulated counter status
are not affected by total programming!
