The first prompt asks for the Delta-T offset. Delta-T is the difference
between the upstream and downstream transit time of the transducers.
The Delta-T offset should normally be set to zero.

The next prompt asks for the zero cutoff. Near “zero” flow, the PT878
may have fluctuating readings due to small offsets (caused by factors
such as thermal drift in the fluid). The zero cutoff causes velocity
measurements less than the cutoff to be reported as zero. To set the
cutoff:
