4. Optional: For two-stage batching, assign one of the Discrete Outputs to the secondary valve.
You can also assign one of the Discrete Outputs to a pump when the batcher is configured for single
stage or two stage.
5.3.4 Configure AOC
Configure AOC using the display
AOC (Automatic Overshoot Compensation) adjusts the timing of the valve close command to minimize
overshoot. The valve close command is sent before the target is reached, to compensate for the time
required for the valve to close completely. AOC is applied to all presets and all batches.
There are three options for AOC:
Compensation Off
The transmitter sends the close command when the measured batch total reaches
the configured target.
Fixed
Compensation
Value
The transmitter sends the close command when the measured batch total equals the
target minus the value configured for
Fixed Overshoot Compensation
. This value is
configured in the current mass or volume unit, and applies to all presets.
AOC Algorithm
The transmitter compares the actual measured amount of each batch to the batch
target, and determines the adjustment by calibrating itself according to an internal
algorithm. You can choose to stop AOC calibration when you are satisfied with the
result, or you can set up rolling (continuous) AOC calibration.
Procedure
•
To use the Compensation Off option:
a) Choose
Menu
>
Configuration
>
Process Measurement
>
Batcher
>
AOC
.
b) Set
Compensation Mode
to Off.
•
To use the Fixed Compensation Value option:
a) Choose
Menu
>
Configuration
>
Process Measurement
>
Batcher
>
AOC
.
b) Set
Compensation Mode
to Fixed.
c) Set
Fixed Value
to the quantity to be subtracted from the batch target.
Important
Adjust the fixed value:
—
Whenever the process changes (e.g., flow rate, process fluid)
—
Whenever you change any configuration parameter that can affect flow measurement (e.g., damping)
