Operating modes, meter states and signal output
The FLOWSIC600-XT has the following operating modes:
● Measuring mode
● Air test mode
● Configuration mode
If necessary, the pulse valency must be changed when using Air test mode.
2.5.1
Measuring mode
The FLOWSIC600-XT can have the following status during measuring mode:
● Measurement valid
● Measurement invalid
● Maintenance request
In measuring mode, the FLOWSIC600-XT operates in one of three meter statuses depend
-
ing on the measuring conditions.
2.5.2
Air test mode
Air test mode serves to carry out a test bench calibration with the test medium air at
ambient pressure. Entries are made in the Event logbook when air test mode is activated
and deactivated. The measurement is marked as invalid in air test mode.
2.5.3
Configuration mode
Configuration mode serves to protect against unintentional or unallowed parameter
changes. Therefore configuration mode must be activated for most configuration handling
or parameter changes. Changing parameters for certain modules (e.g. serial interface) is
first active after configuration mode is deactivated. The measurement is marked as invalid
when configuration mode is activated when the parameter locking switch is open.
