CHAPTER 3 - OPERATION
Model ST98 Flow Meter
3 - 12
Doc. No. 06EN003291 Rev. A
Summary:
Displays A/D Delta-R and Ref-R as resistance values, Circuit Board Temperature, -8 Volt Supply, and +20 Volt
Supply.
Description:
The user may select to view any of the four displays available; A/D Delta-R, and Ref-A/D counts as resistance, the
Circuit Board Temperature, the -8 Volt, or the +20 Volt supply. These readings are for reference only and should
not be used to check the calibration.
Example:
Pressing R [Enter] will display “RES=1, TEMP=2” followed by “-8V=3, +20V=4”. If “1” is selected, the
display is continually updated with "Resistance" on the first line and "r=xxx R=xxxx" on the second line.
Selection “2” displays “CB Temperature” followed by “xx.x degrees x” which is updated continuously.
Selection “3” displays “-8 Volt Supply” followed by “-8.xxx volts” which is updated continuously. If “4” is
selected, “+20 Volt Supply” followed by “+20.xxx volts” which is displayed continuously.
Note:
Pressing [ENTER] at any time will exit this menu item and display "Input mode?<".
COMMAND:
S. Save and/or Restore USER-Save, FACTORY
Summary:
Permits the user to save normal operational data to a User-Save area of the EEPROM. Also permits the User to
restore normal operational data from the User-Save or FACTORY area of the EEPROM. Calibration data is saved
in the FACTORY area of the EEPROM with the factory calibration before the meter leaves FCI. The factory data
can not be changed in the field.
Description:
None.
Example:
Pressing S [Enter] will display “Restore User” followed by “from USER SAVE? “. If ‘Y’ is pressed,
“Restore Page(x)” is displayed, followed by “Please wait”, “Completed!”, and then “Restart!”. If ‘N’ is
pressed, “Restore User” is displayed, followed by “from FACTORY?“. The same information is displayed
as restore from User Save. If no data exists in either area, “Data Empty!!!” is displayed. Next, “Save
USER?” is displayed. If ‘Y’ is pressed, “USER Save Pg(x)” followed by “Please wait” and then
“Completed!” is displayed. This is followed by “Save FACTORY?”. If ‘Y’ is pressed, the prompt “Enter
Code #” asks the user to enter the password and, if correct, “FACTORY Pg(x)”, “Please wait”, and finally
“Completed!” are displayed.
COMMAND:
T. Normal Operating Mode
Summary:
Permits the user to displays the flow rate and media temperature or the flow rate and totalized flow.
Description:
This is the default operating mode and displays the flow rate (default units of measure are SFPS). Another display
is the totalized flow that is multiplexed with the temperature readout. The default units will not permit a totalized
flow to be displayed.
Example:
T [ENTER] will display “53.0 SFPS” on line 1, and “70.8 Degrees F” on line 2 (example based on default
units).
