IVM6000TM QUICK START – STEP 1
Installation of the IVM6000TM is very quick and easy.
Step 1 Replace the original rubber disk and ste asse bly (RDSA) with the one supplied
with the monitor. he IVM RDSA contains special magnetic sensors which are detected
by the monitor.
Remove valve top Remove original RDSA
Replace with IVM sensor RDSA Replace valve top
NOTE:
Ferromagnetic materials (such as cast iron pipe or fittings, screws, nails, rebar or other metal items)
should not be placed in close proximity to the valve or monitor as these could cause incorrect
operation.

Step 2 Line up the openin in the monitor case with valve inlet pipe, and lower the IVM
strai ht down over the valve. In its final position the IVM6000TM must rest flush on the top of the ABS
plastic valve base.
Line up IVM inlet over valve inlet Lower IVM down over valve
IVM in final position Ensure IVM is sitting flush with the top of
ABS plastic valve base

Step 4 Set up the IVM6000 for your project and valve. First set the ime (24 Hour Clock
for at) and Date. o do this, press the “PAGE” button (see below) on the keypad
several times until you cycle through to the “ADMIN MENU”. Choose the Time/Date
menu item and make any needed chan es. When finished, press the “PAGE” button to
return to the “ADMIN MENU”.

Step 5a Use the “DOWN” button and ”OK” button to select the “BASIC SE INGS” sub-menu
from the “ADMIN MENU”. Verify that all the “BASIC SE INGS” are correct or as
desired for your system, especially the valve MODEL (see next page).
1. Period: he rolling time period over which the unit calculates the percentage
on-ti e and % deviation for each outlet. In this example, data within
the last 4 days will be used in the calculation. Alarms are checked at
1/5th this period. Default value is 30 days.
2. Error %: he maximum allowable percent deviation from equal distribution for all
outlets. Ideally an equal amount of time is spent on each outlet. he
error % control allows an adjustment of when an error should be
signalled. In the above example, a 4 outlet valve should spend 25% of
the time on each outlet, so the 10% allowable deviation means that the
value for each outlet must fall between 15% and 35%. Anything outside
of this range results in a “percent deviation exceeded” (PC DEV) error
condition.
Select “SAVE” then “OK” , after making any changes.

Step 5b Verify that all the other “BASIC SE INGS” are correct or as desired for your system,
especially the valve Model (see below).
3. Sensitivity: Choose from: “OFF” “LOW” “MED” “HIGH. his setting will determine
which errors or warnings will trigger an alar . LOW is the default
setting, and will trigger an alarm based primarily on the % deviation of
flow from one outlet to the other. Choose MED or HIGH if a greater level
of alarm sensitivity is desired.
All errors and warnings are logged regardless of the sensitivity setting.
able 1 (See Appendix) summarizes all the different event and alarm
types, codes and provides interpretation and trouble shooting
suggestions. able 2 (See Appendix) out lines the number of times an
event has to occur to trigger an alarm for the different sensitivity settings.
4. Model: he current valve model and configuration. In the above example a 6606
is selected which is a 6 outlet valve with 6 active outlets. A 6403 is a 4
outlet valve with 3 active outlets, etc. Ensure this setting reflects the
valve odel and nu ber of outlets for your installation.
Select “SAVE” then “OK” , after making any changes.
