7. Running a Meter Test7.1 Selecting a Preconfigured TestDresser ROOTS Meters & Instruments Division has set up a wide array of preestablished test settings thatyou can use instead of manually configuring your own test scenario.

The Configure-RunMeter Test window will appear.By default, the contents of the Model 5 Transfer Prover folder will be displayed; double click on the foldermarked Preconfigured Tests to access the Dresser ROOTS Meters & Instruments Preconfigured Testfolder, which contains test settings for Series A, Series B, VCC, VTC and IMC Meters.

If any errors are detected, one of upto 11 error messages will be displayed on the screen.All error messages must be removed by correctingthe problem(s) before any meter proving can beattempted. Some computers may not display theController Power Off error message if nothing isconnected to the computer’s serial port. So if the 3second indicator does not count down within thirtyseconds, perform the same checks as for theController Power Off error message.Electrical shorts, shorted temperature probes, or lowlevels of AC input power may cause the Controller’smicroprocessor to stop communicating with the computer, causing data not to be received by thecomputer. This condition is indicated by data no longer being updated once a second during a test, orthe Communication Errors message appearing in the Test Screen. It may appear as though the computer’s3 second reasonability test has ceased to count down. If the computer’s serial port is not properlyconfigured or powered this condition may occur also.1. CONTROLLER POWER OFF will appear if any of the following conditions exist:a. If 120 VAC is not plugged into the Controllerb. If the power switch on the Controller is not turned onc. If the data cable from the Controller is not properly connected to the serial portof the computer that was selected in the Computer Setup Menud. If the serial port in your computer is not powered (see your computer'soperation manual for information about using serial ports for your specific computer)Some laptops require the enabling of power to their serial and/or parallel ports.e. If the cable from the Controller to the proper serial port is damagedf. If your computer has a nonstandard RS-232 wiring pin outg. If there is insufficient available RAM to allow the software to operate properly2. ATMOSPHERIC PRESSURE SENSOR ERROR - The atmospheric pressure sensor is located insidethe Controller housing.
