Abstract: The Meter Shop Operations computer system currently under development by Southern California Gas Company consists of a custom designed microprocessor bell prover control and meter data acquisition system reporting to a Datapoint host computer. Each microprocessor-based meter proving unit is individually controlled and provides a CRT for display of test results and prompting for meter data collection. The system uses a custom designed hand-held unit for bell prover control and key pad or bar code data input. This unit also provides all necessary bell prover controls including temperature compensation and meter differential measurement. The computer system is based on the generation of a bar code label and the creation of a file in the host computer for each meter upon entry to the shop for repair. The use of bar code readers provides accurate and efficient meter data collection for management of production, quality, and inventory.
