# A21 Auto Initialize

### Definition

Auto-detect fluid ultrasonic velocity to complete environmental parameter setup after [mechanical installation](https://docs.lorric.com/qr/fu-es-echosense-instruction-manual/installation-and-setup/mechanical-installation), [electrical installaton](https://docs.lorric.com/qr/fu-es-echosense-instruction-manual/installation-and-setup/electronic-installation) and [parameter settings](https://docs.lorric.com/qr/fu-es-echosense-instruction-manual/installation-and-setup/parameter-setup).

The function starts only after pressing **Start**. Upon execution, it will automatically update the **Z03 (Auto Initialization)** settings.

{% hint style="info" %}
Currently, **A21** does not support Modbus read/write command operation.
{% endhint %}

### Notes

1. This step <mark style="color:red;">**must be performed when the pipeline is fully filled with liquid**</mark>. If **A21** is executed when the pipeline is not full, it may cause flow measurement errors and fluctuating readings. If this occurs, repeat **A21** under fully filled conditions.
2. The **Auto Initialization** of **A21** must be performed with the pipeline full. Whether the fluid is **flowing or stationary** does not affect the result.
3. <mark style="color:red;">**Each time the system is reinstalled or the pipeline size/material is changed, this function should be executed again.**</mark>
4. The **A21** function is equivalent to **Z03**, and the user may choose to execute either one.\
   \&#xNAN;*(Z-series parameters are designed for quick setup, mainly during installation, consolidating multiple necessary parameters into a single series for faster completion.)*
