 TDC-0823-005     100G Datalogging Installation Guide - Direct Mount  89   Proprietary and Confidential     To Program the 100G Datalogging commercial gas endpoint 1. Program the meter drive rate into the 100G Datalogging Commercial Gas Endpoint using the endpoint programming device. For all programming and "Check Endpoint" operations, hold the handheld programmer as close to vertical as possible. For best success, keep the handheld programmer within 6 feet of the target endpoint. Verify you have the correct programming mode (Fixed Network Mode, Mobile/Handheld Mode, or Hard to Read Mobile/Handheld Mode) for your application. Programming parameters are based on the configuration file loaded into the endpoint programming device. During programming, the 100G Datalogging Commercial Gas Endpoint is set to the nearest 100 cubic feet; the last two digits (tens and units) are programmed as zeros (0). After programming is complete, the endpoint assembly will read to the nearest cubic foot.  2. Slowly turn the endpoint's drive wriggler two turns in the direction shown on the index drive rate. This verifies the endpoint is counting properly after assembly.   Caution  Do not turn the drive wriggler faster than one turn per second.  3. Read or Check  the 100G Datalogging Commercial Gas Endpoint using the endpoint programming device.   If the read result is higher than the number programmed in Step 1, the 100G Datalogging Commercial Gas Endpoint  is counting correctly.   If the read result is not higher than the number programmed in Step 1, replace the 100G Datalogging Commercial Gas Endpoint.
