How to calculate overall flow?

Hi there! I successfully connected and configured 4-20mA output of a flowmeter (IFM SA2004) to the akYtec PR200. It shows current flowrate in [l/min].Now I'm struggling on how to use this measurment to calculate overall flow in given period of time.
Any ideas or tips? I tried with triggers and counters, but with no luck :(
Kind regards,Bartosz

Hi, my first idea would also have been to try using triggers. If that doesn't work, you could use the pulse count and the measured flow rate to calculate the total flow. The formula could look like this:total flow = pulse count x factorThe factor is the conversion factor from pulses to volume -> [l/pulse]
I hope that was explained clearly enough :-)
