Forcing/simulating flow on FloBoss 600+

I am wondering if it is possible to force a flow rate in the floboss600+, without communication to a real flow meter, to perform a calculation check, and to see if values on the Modbus are correct.

I don't want to connect any simulation devices to it, because I don't have them here.

Other flow computers have some options to perform these kind of tests, but in the FloBoss600 I can't find. Maybe because I am quite new in the FloBoss.

Other question is if it would be possible to preset totalizers, in case I have to replace a flow computer.

I checked the manuals, but can't find it.

Thanks in advance. Any help is welcome

  It depends on the type of config, ie ultrasonic, DP, turbine etc. You may find a keypad value for DP, temp, pressure etc to force it to meter, you may also have for frequency inputs the option of a keypad frequency. Issues come when pulse input used as this is dependent on actual pulses been fed in. Past this if you enable debug from the cold start menu, then you can enter values under the watch list under diag on the webserver for some inputs or modbus values.
  
  As to reset totals then we cannot offer the option as fiscal standards will not allow us to manually write totals.
