Model PD6363 Pulse Dual-Input Rate/Totalizer Instruction Manual
88
METER OPERATION
The meter accepts two input channels (A and B) of either pulses (e.g. ±40
mV to ± 8V), square wave (0-5 V, 0-12 V, or 0-24 V), open collector NPN,
PNP, TTL, or switch contact signals and displays these signals in
engineering units from -99999 to 999999. (
e.g.
a 0-1000 Hz signal could
be displayed as -50.000 to 50.000).
Digital inputs and quadrature inputs can be accepted for bi-directional
flow on channel A and B. Quadrature inputs can also be accepted, using
channels A and B to calculate a single bi-directional flow.
A totalizer can be programmed to count the scaled engineering units,
interpreting it as count per second, minute, hour, or day. The scaled rate
and total for each channel can be displayed on the top or bottom displays.
A math function channel (C) is available to perform operations on channel
A and B rates or totals, with adder and factor constants, and display the
results. Engineering units or tags may be displayed with these three
channels.
The dual-line display can be customized by the user. Typically the upper
display is used to display the math channel C, while the lower display is
used to alternate between displaying input channels A and B rate or total.
Additionally the meter can be set up to display any input or math channel
on the upper display and a unit or tag on the lower display. The relays
and analog output can be programmed to operate based on any input
rate or total, or the math function channel.
Function Keys Operation
During operation, the programmable function keys operate according to
the way they have been programmed in the
Advanced Features – User
menu.
F4 Operation
A digital input, F4, is standard on the meter. This digital input is
programmed identically to function keys F1, F2, and F3. The input is
triggered with a contact closure to COM, or with an active low signal.
During operation, F4 operates according to the way it has been
programmed in the
Advanced Features – User
menu.
