Measurements
Damping Factor
[5 s]
U
Use Damping Factor to establish the stability of the measured flow rate . If back and forth oscillations
of the flow rate are observed during normal flow conditions, increase this value incrementally until the
flow rate stabilizes . This parameter has no affect on the totalizers .
To change the Damping Factor value, follow these steps from the
Measurements
menu .
1 . Select
Damping Factor
to view the
Damping Factor
display .
2 . Select one of the following damping factors:
1 Second
10 Seconds
2 Seconds
20 Seconds
3 Seconds
30 Seconds
4 Seconds
No Damping
5 Seconds
3 . Press [
E
] to save the damping factor and return to the
Measurements
menu .
Inputs/Outputs
Analog Output
Range
[4 to 20 mA]
S
Use Analog Output to establish the range of the analog output signal . To change
Analog Output range, follow these steps from the
Inputs/Outputs
menu:
1 . Select
Analog Output
to view the
Analog Output
display .
2 . Select one of the following options:
• 4 to 20 mA
• 0 to 20 mA
• 2 to 10 mA
• 0 to 10 mA
3 . Press [
E
]
to save the analog output and return to the
Inputs/Outputs
menu .
OTE:
N
If an error message is displayed, set current to 22 mA . If you select bidirectional
operation, you can signal flow direction via digital outputs .
Alarm Mode
[OFF]
S
Use Alarm Mode to configure the behavior of the analog output during alarm
conditions . There are three options for this parameter: OFF, LOW, and HIGH .
OFF:
Analog signal is based on flow rate and always within the configured range
LOW:
During alarm conditions, the analog signal is 2 mA less than the configured
lower range
HIGH:
During alarm conditions, the analog signal is 2 mA more than the configured
upper range
For example, if the analog range is 4…20 mA and the alarm mode is set to HIGH, then
during a Full Scale Flow alarm condition, the analog output current is 22 mA .
To change the analog output alarm mode, follow these steps from the
Inputs/Outputs
menu:
1 . Select
Alarm Mode
to view the
Alarm Mode
display .
2 . Select one of the following options:
• OFF
• LOW
• HIGH
3 . Press [
E
]
to save the alarm mode and return to the
Inputs/Outputs
menu .
