VEGAMET 342 • 4 … 20 mA
63731-EN-221107
The following steps must be carried out in the application wizard:
Select application
Select from the offered options the application "
Flow measurement
flume/Weir
".
Assign measuring loop name
Assign a unique designation to the measuring point so that there can
be no confusion with other measuring points.
Define sensor characteristic values
The measuring range suitable for the application should be set di-
rectly in the sensor to achieve the maximum accuracy. This measuring
range must now be stored once again in the assistant together with
the sensor type and measuring unit.
Define application
Select the appropriate linearization and flume type. A list of available
flumes can be found in the introduction to this application.
Define adjustment values
Enter the adjustment values of the measuring point for 0 % and for
100 %.
Scaling
Enter the measured value and unit (e.g. flow rate in m³/h) and the cor-
responding scaling values for 100 % and 0 % (e.g. 100 m³/h, 0 m³/h).
Activate/define totalizer
The flow value can also be summed up and displayed as flow rate.
Two independent totalizers are per measuring point available for this
purpose. Define the measuring unit and the display format. In addi-
tion, a value for leak flow volume suppression can be defined.
Resetting the totalizer can be initiated as follows:
•
via the display and adjustment module
•
via the DTM/VEGA Tools app
•
time controlled (daily at any time)
Configure measured value indication
In the last step you can configure which and how many measured
values are to be shown on the display. In addition, you can define
the base of the display value, the display format and the optional bar
graph.
