Operating philosophy
The individual parts of the operating menu are assigned to certain user roles (operator,
maintenance etc.). Each user role contains typical tasks within the device lifecycle.
Menu/parameter
User role and tasks
Content/meaning
Language
task-oriented
Role "Operator", "Maintenance"
Tasks during operation:
Reading measured values
• Defining the operating language
• Resetting and controlling totalizers
Operation
Resetting and controlling totalizers
Setup
"Maintenance" role
Commissioning:
• Configuration of the measurement
• Configuration of the
communication interface
Submenus for fast commissioning:
• Set the system units
• Define the medium
• Configuration of the digital communication interface
• Configuring the operational display
• Set the low flow cut off
• Configure partial and empty pipe detection
Advanced setup
• For more customized configuration of the measurement (adaptation to
special measuring conditions)
• Configuration of totalizers
• Configure the WLAN settings
• Administration (define access code, reset measuring device)
Diagnostics
"Maintenance" role
Fault elimination:
• Diagnostics and elimination of
process and device errors
• Measured value simulation
Contains all parameters for error detection and analyzing process and
device errors:
• Diagnostic list
Contains up to 5 currently pending diagnostic messages.
• Event logbook
Contains event messages that have occurred.
• Device information
Contains information for identifying the device.
• Measured values
Contains all current measured values.
• Heartbeat
The functionality of the device is checked on demand and the verification
results are documented.
• Simulation
Is used to simulate measured values or output values.
Expert
function-oriented Tasks that require detailed knowledge
of the function of the device:
• Commissioning measurements
under difficult conditions
• Optimal adaptation of the
measurement to difficult conditions
• Detailed configuration of the
communication interface
• Error diagnostics in difficult cases
Contains all the parameters of the device and makes it possible to access
these parameters directly using an access code. The structure of this menu
is based on the function blocks of the device:
• System
Contains all higher-order device parameters which do not concern the
measurement or the communication interface.
• Sensor
Configuration of the measurement.
• Communication
Configuration of the digital communication interface.
• Application
Configure the functions that go beyond the actual measurement (e.g.
totalizer).
• Diagnostics
Error detection and analysis of process and device errors and for device
simulation and Heartbeat Technology.
