OPERATION
To select a DISPLAY function, press [DISPLAY] from the MAIN run screen.
The display is:
1avg 2rate 3hi/lo

The cursor is on the active DISPLAY function. Selecting a DISPLAY function returns to the
MAIN run screen with the selected function active.
See Section 3.4.6, PRINCIPLE for a summary of DISPLAY functions and Sections 3.4.6.1
through 3.4.6.8 for detailed information on each DISPLAY function.
In molbloc-S operation, at times, the back pressure ratio, BPR, will be too high for molbox
RFM to calculate a meaningful flow value. When this occurs, the top line of the run screen
display always reads <BPR HI> and the bottom line shows the label <BPR> and the
current measured BPR value. This display has priority over the appearance of the display
functions described in this section, but the display will return to normal when the BPR
returns to a usable level for molbloc-S measurements (see Section 3.1.2).
The default DISPLAY function is RATE which causes the second line of the display to
show <R> followed by the current rate of change of flow in current flow unit of measure
per second (see Section 3.4.6.1).
3.4.6.1 <1RATE>
PURPOSE
To activate the RATE DISPLAY.
See Section 3.4.6, PRINCIPLE.
OPERATION
To activate the RATE DISPLAY press [DISPLAY] and select <1rate>. Selecting <1rate>
returns to the MAIN run screen with the RATE DISPLAY active.
With the RATE DISPLAY active, the MAIN run screen is:
1. Standard MAIN run screen top line.
2. Current rate of change of flow in current flow
unit of measure per second.

The RATE DISPLAY is different and separate from the stability setting that
is used to set the stability criterion on which the Ready/Not Ready
indication is based (see Sections
3.1.3). The RATE DISPLAY only causes the
current
rate
of change to be displayed and has NO affect on the stability
setting or the Ready/Not Ready condition.
