The hose reset feature is a Weights and Measures requirement that allows the user a one-time reset of the register back to zero after a delivery is started in order to charge the hose with system pressure. This assumes that the amount to charge the hose is within the hose reset features limits. The reason this feature is permitted, is that following a preset delivery, the meters preset valve (on the outlet of the meter) closes once the preset amount is reached, yet the fueling nozzle at the end of the hose is still open. This causes a small void in the packing of the hose because of the loss of system pressure.

 

To use this feature, start a delivery on the Register and engage the pump (apply system pressure)–while leaving the nozzle closed. If the meter jumps up a few tenth of a unit, this is because there was a void in the hose that has now been filled by adding the pump pressure. If the amount is less than 1 gallon (or 4 Liters), the user is able to reset the register back to zero by pressing the Stop key, followed by the Hose Reset key. At this time, the register will be reading zero again and by pressing the Resume key, the user can continue with normal delivery functions.
