- The essential steps to configuring an HydroMACE XCi
device
Before an HydroMACE XCi device can be used, it must be "configured" for operation. This entails a
knowledge of the field application and what you wish to measure.
For example, if you wish to measure flow rate through a Parshall flume and totalise that flow, three
parameters (known as " Channels " in an XCi), will need to be added and configured:
l
Depth channel - The depth of the stream flow through the Parshall Flume must be measured
l
Flowrate (using weir) channel - The flow rate of the stream is calculated from the measured depth
by multiplying by the appropriate equation selected using FloCom
+
l
Total channel - The total is calculated by multiplying the flow rate, by a time period
With a knowledge of the application and what parameters need to be measured, the XCi device can be
configured for use in a few simple steps. The procedure is structured in a logical sequence so that the device
is configured in the correct order.
