Square Root Extraction Algorithms
(Engineering Units Processing Algorithm)

This parameter chooses the equation for processing the input from a transmitter or

 transducer.

EuPA

 = 0 - Linear is for inputs that are directly proportional to flow (no square root extraction

needed).

EuPA

 = 1 - Square Root, takes the square root of the input (pressure or differential pressure)

over the whole range of the input.

EuPA

 = 2 - Two Stage Square Root, takes the square root of the input when the input is

greater than 4% of input  (20% of flow) and uses a linear relationship below 4% with a slope of

5.

EuPA

 = 3 - Three Stage Square Root, uses a linear relationship when input is less than 1%

with a slope of 1, a linear relationship between 1 and 2.5% with a slope of 10 and a square

root  above 2.5%.

EuPA

 = 4 - Variable Exponent, when properly set , provides a means of accurately accommo-

dating weirs and flumes.

EuPA

 = 5 - Piecewise Linear, provides the user with a means of inputing data from a non-

linear sensor.

EuPA

 = 6 - Variable Exponent with correction, provides a means to use Palmer-Bowlus or H

flumes.

EuPA

 = 7 - Saturated Steam Flow with Pressure Correction.

Totalizer Decimal Position

Specifies how the total, preset, and pulsed output values will be displayed.  The factory

default=0, no decimal.  Display code 

tdP

.

Totalizer Factor

Specifies how the total will be scaled, and as a result, the corresponding scaling of the preset

and pulsed output values.  For totalizer factor = -4, -3, -2, -1, 0, 1, 2, or 3, the total will be

multiplied by .0001, .001, .01, .1, 1, 10, 100, or 1000 respectively.  The factory default=0.

Display code

 tFAC

.

Totalizer Low Flow Cutoff

Below the specified percent of full scale Process Value, the flow will not be added to the total.

The factory default = 1.0.  Display code
