Chapter 3. Programming
3.6 Programming Menu Options
The options in the Programming Page should be selected to best suit your application. The configurations selected in
programming page are critical for accurate flow measurements. Incorrect programming settings can give
erroneous measurements and impact accuracy.
Note:
Consult the factory or BakerHughes Services if you are unsure of the appropriate settings for your
application.
IMPORTANT: The configurations in the Programming page are pre-selected to best suit your applications. Consult
the factory or BakerHughes Services before changing any of these settings. Modifying any of the
settings can give erroneous measurements and impact accuracy.
3.6.1 Programming the Pipe
The Pipe menu allows the user to specify all pipe parameters that are required to ensure accurate ultrasonic flow
rate measurements. Use steps as in Section 3.3.2 to navigate to the Programming page.
1. Highlight [Composite] and press [ENTER] . Then Select [Pipe] and press [ENTER] .
2. Pipe dimensions like [Outer Diameter] (OD), [Wall Thickness] and [Inner Diameter] (ID) can be programmed
in this menu.
Note:
The measurement units used for pipe size parameters depend on the choices made in the Section 3.4.1.

3.6.2 Programming the Fluid
The Fluid menu (see Figure 35) allows the user to specify all the parameters of the fluid flowing through the pipe that
is required to ensure accurate ultrasonic flow rate measurements. Use steps as in section Section 3.3.2 to navigate to
the Programming page.
1. Select [Composite] and press [ENTER]. Scroll down, select [Fluid] and press [ENTER] .
2. Select [Density] , press [ENTER] and program the actual density [Density (Act)] and reference density [Density
(Ref)] of the process fluid.
3. Then select [Kinematic Viscosity] , press [ENTER] and program the kinematic viscosity of the process fluid.
4. Then select [Tracking] option. The tracking window is used to scan through the speed of sound range
programmed to detect the signal when the user is unsure of the fluid sound speed. The meter also supports a list
of standard fluid types. If the process fluid is not listed in standard fluids list and if you are unsure of the fluid
sound speed, set tracking window to On and program the
minimum and maximum sound speed range to scan.
Tracking window should be set to On.
5. For standard fluids list (see Table 15) supported in the meter, the minimum , maximum and nominal sound
speeds are automatically selected.
6. Also program the process [Fluid Temperature] and [Ambient Temperature] see Section 3.6.5.
IMPORTANT: Consult the factory before setting Tracking Window to Off.
