<strong>Isco</strong> <strong>Flowlink</strong> <strong>5.1</strong> ® <strong>Software</strong><br />
Menu Commands<br />
• Perform every ____ days. Enter a value between 1 and<br />
1000. Entering a “0” will disable the database<br />
maintenance.<br />
• Truncate log file at ____ bytes. Enter a value between<br />
10000 and 60000. <strong>Flowlink</strong> will delete the oldest entries<br />
in the log file as the maintenance is performed.<br />
Diagnostics - Advanced <strong>Flowlink</strong> diagnostic displays can be<br />
enabled by checking the “Enable various diagnostic features”<br />
check box. When checked, <strong>Flowlink</strong> will ask for a Diagnostic<br />
Password, which you must obtain from Teledyne <strong>Isco</strong>.<br />

List<br />
Selecting Utilities>Flow Conversion displays the Flow<br />
Conversion List window.<br />
This window lists the flow conversion methods used by the<br />
instruments in the database. Flow conversions are used to<br />
convert level (or level and velocity) measurements into flow rate<br />
data.<br />
Additional flow conversion methods may be added for:<br />
• use as a template to set up a flow measurement<br />
instrument.<br />
• off-line flow conversion.<br />
This window lists the flow rate conversion methods used by the<br />
instruments in the database.<br />
Additional flow conversion methods may be added for:<br />
• use as a “template” to quickly set up an instrument<br />
• off-line flow conversion. Off-line flow conversions can<br />
offer many advantages:<br />
• Use less instrument memory - If the instrument<br />
does not store flow rate data, more partition space is<br />
available for other reading types.<br />
• Shorter data retrieval times - If the instrument<br />
does not store flow rate readings, data retrieval is<br />
typically quicker.<br />
• Better flow rate resolution - An instrument’s flow<br />
rate conversion is limited by its internal flow<br />
conversion table and the number of significant digits<br />
held. Off-line flow conversions have no such limits.<br />
Each line in the window shows the name, type, and whether the<br />
flow conversion is in use by an existing instrument. These are<br />
added to the flow conversion list as you connect to new<br />
instruments.<br />
From this window you may:<br />
• Add a flow conversion<br />
• Edit a flow conversion<br />
• Delete a flow conversion.<br />
