2.1.2 HOW TO ENABLE AND DISABLE A MEASUREMENT CHANNEL
The flow computer disables a measurement channel until the completion of the required Site Setup
entries and the transducer installation procedure. The meter enables the measurement channel auto-
matically after it receives all required site data and completes the transducer install routine. (The Site
Enable menu cell allows you to disable or enable a measurement channel after there has been a
successful transducer install).
The system does not require your presence for routine operation. If a fault condition (e.g., an empty
pipe) disrupts operation, the system will recover automatically after the fault clears. Use Channel
Enable [No] to turn off a channel that is currently unused but active; for example, if the transducers
have been removed for servicing.
To disable a channel that is operating:

Move the cursor to [No] by pressing
To disable the measurement channel press
To enable a channel:

Move the cursor to [Yes] press
