Introduction
The Model XGS868 flow transmitter must be properly installed and
programmed, as described in the
Startup Guide
, before it can provide
accurate flow rate measurements. After completing the installation
and initial setup, use this chapter to program the advanced features of
the Model XGS868’s
User Program
.
Step-by-step programming instructions are presented in this chapter.
Also, as a programming aid, a complete set of menu maps for the
SITE
EDIT MENU
are included in Appendix A,
Menu Maps for IDM
. The
specific figure numbers will be referenced throughout this chapter, as
required.
Refer to the appropriate section for a discussion of the following
SITE
EDIT MENU
features.
•
Channelx-Status
- activate one or both channels and select the
desired measurement method.
•
Channelx-System
- enter the individual channel parameters.
•
Channelx-Pipe Parameters
- enter the pipe geometry and other
parameters.
•
Channelx-Input/Output
- set up the inputs and outputs.
•
Channelx-Setup
- set the signal limits, response times and mass
flow status.
•
Global-System
- select system units (English and metrics).
•
Global-Input/Output
- set up error handling, option cards and
display.
•
Global-Comm Port
- set the serial port parameters.
Note:
The “x” in CHx represents the channel number. If you are
using a 1-Channel meter, only Channel 1will appear.
To get the XGS868 up and running as quickly as possible you must,
as a minimum, activate the channel(s), enter channel and global
system data and pipe parameters. The
Procedure Options
sections at
the end of each menu will help you in programming the required
(quick startup) and optional data.
Note:
In this manual, only the programming of Channel 1 will be
described. To program Channel 2 of a 2-channel meter, simply
repeat the same procedure presented for Channel 1.
