    1" flow monitor reading 1300 + with a mag drive 7 return pump.

    I can't get my flow monitor to read correctly. It's constantly reading between 1300 and 1400 gph. I know it's no where near the 250-400 the mag 7 is pushing. Any thoughts on getting it to read correctly?

    I suspect that your FMM is set to display flow values in LPH, not GPH. Using the Classic Dashboard, go to the Module Setup page, select the FMM, and check that setting.

    Also, check that the flow sensor is set to 1”, not 2” in the same place.

    Tablets and phones don't work well with the classic dashboard. You need to use a computer or a Bluetooth keyboard and mouse if a laptop or desktop isn't an option. Touch controls don't play nice with the classic dashboard.

    You might be an engineer if...You have no life and can prove it mathematically.

    Thanks for the quick reply. I have a blue tooth keyboard for the tablet but I can only get to the main screen. I can't get further than this.

    You need to type the ip address of the apex into a browser. That is the android app which does not have any of the options you are looking for.
