5.2  Accessing the configuration and   
       calibrations functions.

Throughout this manual push buttons are shown
as 

P

,  

  E

,

   

 

or  

, and legends displayed by the

Rate Totaliser are shown within inverted commas
e.g. 'CAL' and ' ALr2'.

Access to the configuration menu is obtained by
operating  the

 

P

 and

 

E

 push  

buttons

simultaneously.    If  the  Rate  Totaliser’s  security
code is set to the default 0000 the first parameter
'FunC' will be displayed.  If a security code other
than  the  default  code  0000  has  already  been
entered,  the  Rate  Totaliser  will  display  'CodE'.
Pressing  the  

P

  button  will  clear  this  prompt

allowing each digit of the code to be entered using
the 

 and

 

 push buttons and the  

P

 button to

move control to the next digit.  When the correct
four digit code has been entered pressing

 

E

 will

cause the first parameter 'FunC' to be displayed.
If the code is incorrect, or a button is not pressed
within  twenty  seconds,  the  Rate  Totaliser  will
automatically return to the display mode. 

Once  within  the configuration  menu  the required
parameter can be reached by scrolling through the
menu using the 

 and 

 

push buttons as shown

in Fig 8.    When returning to the display mode
following recalibration or a change to any function,
the Rate Totaliser will display  ‘dAtA’ followed by
‘SAVE’ while the new information is stored in non-
volatile memory.

All new Rate Totalisers are supplied calibrated as
requested at the time of ordering.  If calibration is
not requested, Rate Totalisers will be supplied with
the following default configuration:

5.3  Summary of configuration functions

This  section  summarises  each  of  the  main
configuration  functions  and  includes  a  cross
reference   to   a   more   detailed   description.     Fig   8
illustrates the location of each function within the
configuration  menu.    The  lineariser  and  the
optional  factory  fitted  alarms  are  described
separately in sections 6 and 9.3 of this manual.

  

Display

      Summary of function

'FunC'

Rate Totaliser function

Defines the relationship between the
4/20mA  input  current  and  the
instruments rate display.  
For uni-directional flow may be set
to:
 ‘5td’

Standard linear relationship

 ‘root’ Square root extraction
 ‘Lin’

16 segment adjustable 
lineariser – see section 6

For bi-directional flow may be set 
to:
 ‘bi-5td’ Standard linear relationship
 ‘bi-Lin’ 16 segment adjustable 

lineariser – see section 6

See section 5.4

'rE5n'

Display resolution

Defines  the  resolution  of  the  least
significant rate display digit.  May be
set to ‘1’, ‘2’, ‘5’ or ‘10’ digits.
See section 5.5

‘uPdAtE’

Update

Defines  the  interval  between
updates.  May be set to ‘1’, ‘2’, ‘3’,
‘4’ or ‘5’ seconds.
See section 5.6

‘di5P-1’

Upper display

Defines whether  ‘totAL’  or  ‘rAtE’  is
shown  on  the  upper  eight  digit
display.
See section 5.7

‘di5P-2’

Lower display

Turns lower six digit display ‘on’ or
‘oFF’.
See section 5.8

'dP'

Decimal points

Positions  the  decimal  point  in  the
‘rAtE’ and ‘totAL’ displays.
See section 5.9
