DDG6004MHGB/08-2017/Rev.A2          Software version from M 1.3.40 and D 2.3.37 

3.2  Conversion functions 

UNIGAS 300 has three inputs of which input 1 can be configured for connecting a gas meter with an LF impulse 
output, an HF impulse output or an encoder output. 

Inputs 2 and 3 are only suitable for connection of a gas meter with an LF impulse output. 

Several counters are connected to the three inputs. Counters for correcting the gas meter measuring error and 
counters for conversion are connected to input 1. 

Figure  3  shows  the  interrelations  between  conversion  and  other  functions.  Chapter  10  contains  a  further 
explanation of all counters and registers present in UNIGAS 300.

When using a gas meter with two LF impulse outputs, receipt of the impulses of one of the impulse outputs 
can be checked. For that purpose the counter readings of input 2 are compared with those of input 1. Also see 
chapter 13. 

When using a gas meter with both an LF impulse output and an encoder output, receipt of the LF impulses 
can  be  checked  with  the  aid  of  the  encoder.  For  that  purpose  the  LF  impulse  output  of  the  gas  meter  is 
connected to input 1 of UNIGAS 300, whereas input 2 is configured for connecting the encoder output of the 
gas meter. In this application the encoder counter is only read out once every 5-min interval in order to reduce 
the energy consumption and to extend battery life. 

Dependent on the version, T, TZ, PT and PTZ (see main label), the conversion is carried out as follows:
