Now we follow the steps for setting the Odometer value. In this example, we will use
transmitter number 72110068. First, we must place the optical port over the transmitter’s
LED and perform the READ function.
Next, we must update the odometer value on the display. Use the back space key to
delete the current odometer value from the Read step, and enter the desired odometer
reading (12345).
Now touch on the Set Odometer button. Once the messages show that the
communications between the optical port and the transmitter have completed
successfully, the transmitter holds the new odometer value.
To check the odometer value, place the optical port over the LED and perform the READ
function again. You should see the new odometer value of "12345" in the Odometer #
field.
Example: Setting the Odometer for a 4" or 6" Compound
NOTE:
It is recommended that when a Badger RTR

is being read that the sweep hand be
between the twelve o-clock position and the six o-clock position. If the sweep hand is in
between two increments read the lower of the two, i.e. if the sweep hand is in between the
200 and 300 increments use the 200.

transmitter for a compound meter with a
summator, both the low flow and high flow totals must be added together to determine
the total flow. We’ll use this picture of a compound series meter with separate low and
high flow Badger RTRs in the example.
