Activate option Sel. batch and using buttons , or
choose one of the batching options in the emerged triangle brackets
. After that, press button . Selected batch value will be dis-

…
BATCH8 are
entered in the window SETTINGS / Batch list / BATCH SETUP X be-
fore batching process starts.
Batching process starts when operator gives the command to batch
using either the CS keyboard or serial interface. Batching process stops
automatically when the preset batch value is accumulated or when the
operator gives the command (before the preset batch is accumulated).
3.2.3. To make "start-stop" batching possible assign zero value to Ve value.
The operator starts and stops batching via serial interface or using the
CS keyboard.
3.2.4. Batching procedure
The word START in Flow data / Batching / BATCHER X / Batch
line shows that batching process has not started yet. To start batching
process select Batch option pressing button .
After this, batching process starts and lower level window BATCH.
X opens displaying IN PROCESS in the same line with the window
name. Additionally, this window displays the preset Ve , and measured
Vb batch volume values and batching time Tmeas .
Batch accumulation stops either when accumulated volume equals
the preset value or when the operator gives the command. In the "start-
stop" mode, the batching process stops only when the operator gives
the command.
To stop the batching process select option Ctrl. in this window, and
press button . After the batching process has been stopped words IN
PROCESS are substituted by the word COMPLETED , STOP in line
Ctrl. changes to START , and lines Vb and Tmeas display the meas-
ured batch volume and the corresponding batching time.
Next start of the batching process is performed by pressing button
too. Values of settings Vb and Tmeas are nullified, COMPLETED is
replaced with IN PROCESS , and START
– with
STOP .
3.2.5. Upon batching completion (after the preset batch volume is accumulat-
ed or the batching process is stopped by the operator) the flowmeter:
- Produces through a universal output when batching is completed a
pulse or a logical signal, parameters of which depend upon the output
working mode
- Writes the measured batch volume, batch accumulation time, average
batching volumetric flowrate, batching start and stop date and time val-
ues to the batching log.
Batching does not affect measuring and logging of current values.
