Auto Zero
Allows a zero calibration to be performed automatically in RUN mode when the rate
drops below 2% of design for 1 complete calibration period (P360).
A.uxiliary Inputs
Can be programmed to allow the use of an external contact to provide the following
functions, display scroll, totalizer 1 reset, Zero, Span, Multispan, Print, Batch reset, or PID
functions.
Batching
The accumulation of a predetermined quantity of material.
Contacts
A junction of electrical conductors in open (not connected) or closed (connected) states.
Damping
Provides control over the speed at which the displayed rate readings and output
functions are updated in response to changes in the internal rate signals.
Design Rate
This is the maximum material flow rate for this particular application (100% full scale).
Direct Span
If replacing software or hardware, this allows the entry of the previously recorded span
value.
Direct Zero
If replacing software or hardware, this allows the entry of the previously recorded zero
value.
Factoring
Used to calculate the test rate value of a new or unknown test weight using the current
span as reference.
Input/Output Trim
Allows the 4 and 20 mA values to be adjusted and verified with an external source
(meter).
Initial Span
Usually the first span performed, it is used as reference for all other spans to determine
whether they have deviated beyond the accum/- 12.5%.
Initial Zero
Usually the first zero performed, it is used as reference for all other zeros to determine
whether they have deviated beyond the Zero Limit (P370).
Linearization
Compensates for non-linear output of the flowmeter caused by varying load rates.
Load Cell
Strain Gauge type transducer that produces an electrical output proportional to force
(load) applied.
