Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	A rotary gas meter comprising a pair of counter-rotating impellers is configured for diagnostics using differential pressure (DP) measurements. The configurations include executable instructions to actively manage the DP sensor. These instructions activate the DP sensor only during stable flow and, where applicable, for a defined test time period. This feature manages power consumption to maintain battery life with acceptable standards or regulations. Diagnostic values are calculated from data from the differential pressure sensor and an output is generated that corresponds with an operating condition that relates to a relationship between the diagnostic values.
