ProRead™ (ARB
®
VI) Registers
The Neptune ProRead™ register contains a programmable odometer. The odometers in the
previous examples are hard-wired to present either a four-digit or six-digit meter reading.
The odometer in the ProRead registers is also available with those options, but the meter can
be programmed to return up to the maximum number of digits that are hard-wired in the
odometers. Programming always begins at the leftmost odometer digit.
Example:
A four-digit hard-wired version can be programmed to read either:
l Four digits = 1234
l Three digits = 123
The four-digit hard-wired version cannot be programmed to return five digits or six digits. If
this accidentally occurs, the read would appear as an error.
Example: 1234-0
Likewise, a six-digit hard-wired version can be programmed to read:
1. Six digits= 123455
2. Five digits = 12345
3. Four digits = 1234
4. Three digits = 123
