  • Click Edit Channel to show the Non-Periodic HFD Channel Editor popup

         


The Data Viewer popup appears.

Adding a reset Reading of 0

To reset the meter, you need to add a reading of 0 the day after the last correct reading.

In this example, readings where correct up until the reading of 14/05/2015, with a reading of 10092.84.

         


A reset reading of 0 needs to be entered for the period of 14/05/2015 to 15/05/2015.

  • Amend the from date to the day AFTER the last correct reading
  • Amend the to date to the day AFTER the last correct reading
  • Leave the reading at 0
  • Change the Status to Manual Reset 
  • Click OK to save (and the reading will move down to the correct place)

In this example, the readings are correct up until 14/05/2015. 

  • Enter 14/05/2015 in the From Date field (the date of the last correct reading)
  • Enter 15/05/2015 in the Date field (the day AFTER the last correct reading)
  • Choose Manual Reset from the Value Status dropdown

         

  • Click OK to save and close the Data Viewer
