The batch control functions program column b is not in the totalizer unit. Totalizer
installers, however, may read this description to see what they’re missing. The
batch counter will count from zero up to the batch final preset if b1 is set to 0. The
batch count then shows gallons delivered. If b1 is set to 1, the batch counter resets
to the batch final preset and counts down, showing gallons remaining to be deliv-
ered.
At the end of each batch, there may be some overrun due to the flow not stopping
precisely when the batch final relay turns OFF, or due to the flowmeter being in-
stalled downstream of the valve. The batch counter wants to count the entire amount
delivered, including the overrun. If this causes mental anguish with the operator, a
value of 0 in block b2 will cause the batch counter to freeze when it reaches the batch
final setpoint.
Batch autorecycle is a feature that will not often be used. If the value of b3 is zero,
each batch must be started by the operator or by a start input. If b3 is programmed to
a time in the range of 0.1 to 9.9 seconds, the batch autorecycle feature is enabled.
