6.2 Installation position

▶ Install the unit so that the measuring pipe is always completely filled.
▶ Install in front of or in a rising pipe.

Fig. 3: Orientation of the flow-measuring electrodes

When installed in a vertical position, the electrodes for flow measurement (1) should be in the same plane. Any deviation from this can lead to measurement inaccuracies.

Fig. 4: Recommended and non-recommended installation positions

Flow direction ➕ 50

The unit can be installed independently of the orientation if the following is ensured:

• No air bubbles can form in the pipe system.
• The pipes are always completely filled.

In case of horizontal installation: as a result of design requirements a small quantity of the medium always remains in the measuring channel after switching off the pump.

▶ Ensure that no medium remains in the measuring channel.

Avoid the following installation positions:

• At the highest point of the pipe system.
• Directly upstream of a free pipe spout in a downpipe
  • On the suction side of a pump.

Installation in the vicinity of control valves:

▶ Install the device upstream of the control valve in the direction of flow:

Installation in the vicinity of pumps:

▶ Install the device downstream of the pump in the direction of flow to avoid negative pressure in the measuring pipe:

When installed upstream of a pump, cavitation may occur if the pump is under low pressure or high vacuum conditions.

▷ This can lead to the sensor being damaged.

When using piston pumps, piston diaphragm pumps or peristaltic pumps:

▶ Install pulsation damper.

Installation with very strong vibrations:

▶ Support and secure the device and the pipe:

6.3 Inlet and outlet pipe lengths

Structures in the pipe, bends, valves, reducing pieces and the like affect the function of the unit.

▶ Adhere to the distances between sensor and interference.

Shut-off valves and control devices are not allowed directly in front of the unit.

11.3 Output configuration

11.3.1 Analogue signal

The device provides an analogue signal proportional to the process value.

Within the measuring range the analogue signal is between 4...20 mA.

The measuring range can be scaled between -100% and 100% of the final value of the measuring range.

A negative flow value means flow against the flow direction set under Fdir ➞ 50.

• ASP2 determines at which measured value the output signal is 4 mA.
  • AEP2 determines at which measured value the output signal is 20 mA.

Minimum distance between ASP2 and AEP2 = 20 % of the final value of the measuring range.

If the measured value is outside the measuring range or in the event of an internal error, the current signal indicated in the following figure is provided.

For measured values outside the display range or in case of an error, messages are displayed (cr. UL, UL, OL, cr. OL, Err).

Fig. 16: Characteristics of the analogue output according to the standard IEC 60947-5-7

1: Analogue signal MAW: Initial value of the measuring range

2: Measured value MEW: Final value of the measuring range

3: Detection range ASP: Analogue start point

4: Display range AEP: Analogue end point

5: Measuring range UL: Below the display range

6: Scaled measuring range cr. UL: Below the detection range

11.3.2 Switching signal diagnostics

The device features an integrated diagnostic function. When the diagnostic function is used, a switching signal is provided via the hardware output.

The switching output is switched on in normal operation (normally closed). If the device detects a diagnostic case, the output will be switched off.

Diagnostic cases include:

• reversal of the flow direction ➞ 40
• no medium detected ➞ 40

11.3.2.1 Switching signal for flow direction

A flow direction change can be monitored by providing a switching signal.

The output is switched on until the flow rate falls below the set minimum flow rate in negative flow direction (- LFC)(1).

Then the following applies:

• The output switches ON when + LFC is exceeded (2).
- The output switches OFF when - LFC is not reached (3).

LFC = Low flow cut-off: Low flow cut-off ➕ 49.

Fig. 17: Monitoring of the flow direction by switching signals

+Q: Flow in positive flow direction
-Q: Flow in negative flow direction
+LFC: Minimum flow in positive flow direction
-LFC: Minimum flow in negative flow direction

An arrow with the text “flow direction” on the device indicates the positive flow direction. The direction of the flow measurement can be reversed using the parameter Fdir.

→ Flow direction → 50.

11.3.2.1.1 Parameter setting via unit keys: switching signal for flow direction

▶ Go to ⚙️ menu Settings > OUTx.
▶ Select oux and set dOU.
▶ Select dFUx and set dir. F.

11.3.2.2 Switching signal for fluid detection

The device can provide a switching signal when it cannot detect a medium in the pipe.

The device uses this diagnostic function to identify whether the temperature electrode is wetted by fluid. If this is not the case, the device interprets this as an empty pipe and provides a switching signal. The flow process value is set to zero.

Fig. 18: Fluid detection
1: Medium detected
2: Medium not detected

11.3.2.2.1 Parameter setting via the device keys: Switching signal for fluid detection

▶ Go to ⚙️ menu Settings > OUTx.

▶ Select oux and set dOU.

▶ Select dFUx and set FD.

▷ The OUTx output switches as soon as the device detects no medium in the pipe.

▶ Go to ⚙️ menu Settings > CFG.

▶ Select FD. On and set On.

▷ The operating status LED flashes red as soon as the device does not detect any medium in the pipe.

11.3.3 Consumed quantity monitoring (totaliser function)

The device has 3 internal quantity meters (totalisers VTOTL1, VTOTL2 and Vol. L). The totalisers continuously sum up the consumed quantity and provide this process value both on the display and via the IO-Link interface.

Totaliser	Process value	Read access via IO-Link
VTOTL1	Consumed quantity 1(This value is used for consumed quantity monitoring by switching or pulse signals)	Cyclic
VTOTL2	Consumed quantity 2	Acyclic
Vol. L	Consumed quantity over the whole lifetime (lifetime totaliser)	Acyclic

• The totalisers VTOTL1 and VTOTL2 can be reset. Totaliser Vol. L cannot be reset.
  → Totaliser reset → 54.

• The totalisers VTOTL1 and VTOTL2 take account of the following parameter settings when totalising the consumed quantity:

• Flow direction ➕ 50.

• Counting method of the totalisers ➞ 55.

• Low flow cut-off ➕ 49.

• The Life Time Totalisator Vol. L totals all flow quantities regardless of the flow direction and counting method.

• When the detection range (cr. OL) is exceeded, the totalisers use the last valid flow rate value (measuring range end value) and continue counting with this value.
• In addition to the current consumed quantity, the value before the last reset is saved. This value and the time since the last reset can also be displayed ➞ 61.

The totaliser saves the totalled consumed quantity at regular intervals. After a power failure this value is available as the current meter reading. If a time-controlled reset is set, the elapsed time of the set reset interval is also saved. This means that the possible data loss can amount to one minute.

- The accuracy of the consumed quantity measurement depends on the accuracy of the flow measurement.

- A switching signal or pulse signals can be provided for consumed quantity monitoring:

→ Switching signal totaliser → 42.

→ Pulse signal totaliser → 43.

OUT1 and OUT2 cannot be used simultaneously for the consumed quantity monitoring.

11.3.3.1 Switching signal totaliser

A switching signal can be provided for consumed quantity monitoring.

When totaliser VTOTL1 has totalled the flow quantity (pulse value) set under ImPS, the output provides a switching signal.

The flow direction is taken into account when totalling the flow quantity → 55.

The output remains switched until a reset of totaliser VTOTL1 is carried out. When the totaliser has been reset, metering starts again.

▷ The totaliser is reset automatically or manually.

The conditions for the totaliser VTOTL1 reset and the switching signal can be set via the parameter rTo1:

- rTo = OFF:

• The totaliser is only reset with a manual reset or after overflow.
• The output is switched when the totaliser has reached the flow quantity ImPS.

- rTo = ...h / d / w (hours / days / weeks):

• ▷ The totaliser is automatically reset after the set time.
• The output is only switched when the totaliser reaches the flow quantity ImPS by the set time.

The totalisers can be reset manually at any time via the rES. T parameter. Totaliser VTOTL1 can additionally be reset via an external signal at pin 2.

→ Totaliser reset → 54.

• Briefly press • to apply the value.
  ▶ Select ImPRx and set No.
  ▶ Set the rTo1 parameter: Totaliser reset ➞ 54.

11.3.3.2 Pulse signal totaliser

Pulse signals can be provided for consumed quantity monitoring.

Pulse signals are not available via the IO-Link interface.

The output provides a pulse signal each time totaliser VTOTL1 has totalled the flow quantity (pulse value) set under ImPS.

The flow direction is taken into account when totalling the flow quantity → 55.

The pulse signal consists of a short switching on and off of the output.

The pulse width depends on the pulse value and the flow velocity: The greater the pulse value and the lower the flow velocity, the greater the pulse width. This applies up to a pulse width of 2 s. Beyond this, it remains at 2 s.

11.3.4 Digital switching signal

The device provides digital switching signals via switching signal channels (SSC = Switching Signal Channel).

The device has 2 digital switching signal channels SSCx.1 and SSCx.2 for each process value:

• SSC1.1 and SSC1.2 = switching signal channels for consumed quantity (totaliser)
• SSC2.1 and SSC2.2 = switching signal channels for flow
• SSC3.1 and SSC3.2 = switching signal channels for temperature
• SSC4.1 and SSC4.2 = switching signal channels for conductivity

Explanation of the numbering of the switching signal channels SSCx.y: x = process value; y = switching signal channel

The switching signal channels can only be evaluated via the IO-Link interface.

The parameters for each switching signal channel can be set individually.

During parameter setting, the switch points, mode and logic of the switching signal channels are set.

The parameters for switching signal channels can only be set via the IO-Link interface.

Mode

You can choose between the following modes according to the IO-Link smart sensor profile – Function Class “Quantity Detection”:

• Deactivated
• Single Point Mode
• Two Point Mode
• Window Mode

The switching signal channel changes to the active state depending on the process data value (PDV).

The active state is above the switch point in Single Point Mode and Two Point Mode and within the window section in Window Mode.

Logic

By setting the logic High active or Low active, you can specify which value the switching signal channel has in the active state:

• High active: The switching signal channel is “high” in the active state (= ON = normally open = 1)
• Low active: The switching signal channel is "low" in the active state (= OFF = normally closed = 0)

The following figures show the status of the switching signal channels depending on the mode, logic and process data value (PDV).

Deactivated

If the Deactivated mode is set for a switching signal channel, the switching signal channel will permanently have the following value regardless of the process value:

• For logic High active: permanently "low".
• For logic Low active: permanently “high”.

Fig. 19: Deactivated / High active

Fig. 20: Deactivated / Low active

Single-point mode

Only one switch point SP1 is manually set or taught.

The reset point SP1-H results from the switch point and the set hysteresis.

When teaching, the switch point is set below the taught process value TP1 by the hysteresis.

Two-point mode

A switch point SP1 and a switch point SP2 are manually set or taught.

The position of the switch points is freely selectable: SP1 can be below or above SP2. The lower switch point is the reset point. In the example shown, SP1 is the setpoint and SP2 is the reset point.

When teaching, the switch point is set directly to the respective taught process value TPx.

The hysteresis will be ignored in Two Point Mode.

Fig. 24: Two Point Mode / Low active

SP1: Switch point 1

SP2: Switch point 2

TP1: Teach point 1 (= SP1)

TP2: Teach point 2 (= SP2)

Window mode

Two switch points SP1 and SP2 are manually set or taught.

The two switch points define a window area.

The position of the switch points is freely selectable: SP1 can be below or above SP2. The lower switch point is the lower limit value, the higher switch point is the upper limit value of the window area.

When teaching, the switch point is set directly to the respective taught process value TPx.

When the process data value enters the window area, the status of the switching signal channel changes when the switch points are exceeded/not reached.

When the process data value leaves the window area, the status of the switching signal channel changes when the switch point plus/minus the hysteresis is exceeded/not reached.

Parameter setting of the switching channels via IO-Link

The switching channels can only be configured via the IO-Link interface.

▶ Set the following parameters:
• Mode SSCx.y Config. Mode
- Switch points SSCx.y Param. SPx
• Hysteresis SSCx.y Config. Hyst
• Logic SSCx.y Config. Logic
- Switch-on delay SSCx.y Switching delay
- Switch-off delay SSCx.y Reset delay

11.3.5 Output off

• The physical hardware outputs OUT1 and OUT2 can be switched off via the parameter oux = OFF . The corresponding output becomes highly resistive so that no signal can be output. The state of the switching channels SSCx.y is still transmitted if the IO-Link connection is active.
• The switching channels can be deactivated individually via the parameter SSCx.y Konfig. Modus = Deactivated. The switching status of the corresponding switching channel is then permanently in the disabled state: With High active setting permanently “low”, with Low active setting permanently “high”.

The parameters for switching signal channels can only be set via the IO-Link interface.

Parameter setting via unit keys: output off

▶ Go to ⚙️ menu Settings > OUTx.
▶ Select oux and set OFF.

11.4 Application configuration

The chapter describes the setting options for adaptation to your specific application.

11.4.1 Standard unit of measurement

A unit of measurement can be selected with which the process value is shown in the display by default. All further parameter settings are based on this unit.

Selectable values:

• uni. F for flow:
• SMFxx0: m/s, l/min, l/h, hl/h, hl/min, m³ /h, m³ /min
• SMFxx1: m/s, l/min, l/h, hl/h, hl/min, m³ /h, m³ /min, ft/s, gpm, gph

• uni. T for temperature:

- SMFxx0: °C - SMFxx1: °C or °F

• uni. C for conductivity:

- SMFxx0: mS/cm, μS/cm, S/m - SMFxx1: mS/cm, μS/cm, S/m

▶ Select the unit of measurement before configuring further parameters for OUTx.

Parameter setting via unit keys: Standard unit of measurement

▶ Go to ⚙️ menu Settings > CFG.

▶ Select uni.x and set the unit of measurement.

11.4.2 Process value for OUT2

For output OUT2, you can select which process value is to be output.

No selection is possible for the OUT1 output. OUT1 is only for monitoring flow.

Selectable values:

• FLOW: Flow
  • TEMP: Temperature
  • COND: conductivity:
  ▶ Select the process value before configuring further parameters for OUT2.

Parameter setting via the device keys: Process value OUT2

√ Analogue signal is selected as the output function for OUT2: ⏻ > OUT2 > ou2 = I.
▶ Go to ⚙️ menu Settings > OUT2.
▶ Select SEL2 and set the process value for output OUT2.

11.4.3 Error behaviour of the analogue output

The behaviour of the analogue output OUT2 in the event of an error can be set via the parameter FOU2. The following signals are output in the event of an error:

FOU2	SEL2	Output signal	Explanation
ON	FLOWTEMPCOND	In case of an error the output goes to 21.5 mA.	As soon as a defective process value is present, the device sets all process values to invalid.
OFF	FLOWTEMPCOND	In case of an error the output goes to 3.5 mA.
OU	FLOW	In case of an error the output goes to 3.5 mA.	If the process value “Flow” is defective, the device continues to provide the other process values.
	TEMP	In case of an error the output goes to 21.5 mA.	If the process value “Temperature” is defective, the device continues to provide the other process values.
	COND	In case of an error the output goes to 3.5 mA.	If the process value “Conductivity” is defective, the device continues to provide the other process values.

The parameter FOU has no influence on the pulse signal, the diagnostic switching signal and the IO-Link process data transmission.

Parameter setting via unit keys: Error behaviour of the outputs

√ Analogue signal is selected as the output function for OUT2: Ⓞ > OUT2 > ou2 = I.
▶ Go to ⚙️ menu Settings > OUT2.
▶ Select FOU2 and set the error behaviour for output OUT2.

11.4.4 Damping

The set damping constant stabilises the output signals. Abrupt changes in the physical process values are smoothed out.

This concerns the switching outputs, the display and the process value transmission via the IO-Link interface.

The damping constant dAP is used to set after how many seconds the output signal reaches 63% of the final value if the measured value changes suddenly.

The damping constant is added to the response time of the sensor (→ Technical data).

The UL and OL signals are defined under consideration of the damping time.

Measured value damping only has an effect on the process value flow.

Setting range:

0...5 s

Parameter setting via unit keys: Measured value damping

▶ Go to ⚙️ menu Settings > CFG.
▶ Select dAP. F and set the damping time in seconds ( τ value 63%).

11.4.5 Low flow cut-off

Low flow quantities can be ignored using the parameter LFC (Low flow cut-off). Flow below the LFC value is evaluated by the sensor as standstill (Q = 0).

The LFC value influences:

• the process value for flow shown on the display
• the digital switching signal for flow
• the analogue signal for flow
• the memory values for minimum and maximum flow

• the consumed quantity monitoring (switching or pulse signal for flow)

Fig. 27: Low flow cut-off

+LFC: Minimum flow in positive flow direction

-LFC: Minimum flow in negative flow direction

1: Flow which is evaluated as standstill

The unit of the minimum flow rate corresponds to the selection under uni. F.

The accuracy indicated in the data sheet applies to the factory-set LFC value. If a lower LFC value is set, the accuracy of the sensor will decrease.

Parameter setting via unit keys: low flow cut-off

▶ Go to ⚙️ menu Settings > CFG.
▶ Select LFC and set the limit below which a flow is evaluated as standstill.

11.4.6 Output polarity

The output polarity is set via the parameter P-n.

The setting affects both switching outputs.

• PnP: The switching output is positive switching.
• nPn: The switching output is negative switching.

Parameter setting via unit keys: Output polarity

▶ Go to ⚙️ menu Settings > CFG.
▶ Select P-n and set PnP or nPn.

11.4.7 Flow direction

The positive flow direction can be defined by the user. This setting affects the following functions:

• Consumed quantity monitoring (totaliser function) → 41
• Flow direction monitoring via switching signal ➞ 40

An arrow with the text “flow direction” on the device indicates the positive flow direction (factory setting).

The direction of the flow rate measurement can be reversed using the parameter Fdir:

Fdir	Direction of flow
+	Flow direction in case of factory setting
-	Flow direction contrary to the factory setting

Parameter setting via unit keys: flow direction

▶ Go to ⚙️ menu Settings > CFG.
▶ Select Fdir and set the direction of media flow.

11.4.8 Zero calibration

The combination of display unit (converter) and measuring circuit can lead to measurement inaccuracies, particularly depending on the respective ambient conditions.

If there is a systematic deviation between the measured value and the actual process value, this measurement inaccuracy can be corrected using the parameter coF.x.

• coF. F = calibration offset for the flow measurement
• coF. C = calibration offset for the conductivity measurement

The unit for [coF. F] and [coF. C] is the set standard unit of measurement for the process values flow and conductivity → 47.

The internal zero point is shifted by the set value.

Fig. 28: Zero-point calibration (calibration offset)

MEW: Final value of the measuring range

t: time

V0: Curve of measured values at factory setting

V1: Curve of measured values after offset

V2: Curve of measured values after offset

Setting range:

coF. F = -10 % to +10 %; coF. C = -50000 μS/cm to +50000 μS/cm

The parameter is reset to the factory setting both via an application reset and a back-to-box reset.

Factory calibration:

The sensor is calibrated for flow measurement at the factory.

The calibration offset that was used to calibrate the device in the factory can be read on the device or via the IO-Link interface and cannot be configured.

The calibration offset is also listed in the calibration certificate.

Read the factory calibration offset using the device keys:

▶ Go to ⓘ menu Device information and read the calibration offset.

Parameter setting via unit keys: Zero calibration

▶ Go to ⚙️ menu Settings > CFG > CAL.
▶ Select coF.x and set the calibration offset.

11.4.9 Calibration of the measurement characteristic

The calibration factor CGA.x is used to adjust the temperature-viscosity compensation of the sensor to the characteristics of the medium used. The calibration factor influences the gradient of the flow measurement characteristic.

• CGA. F = calibration factor for flow measurement
• CGA. C = calibration factor for conductivity measurement

The slope modification of the measurement characteristic is indicated in percent. The factory setting is CGA = 100%. After a change the calibration can be reset to factory setting.

Fig. 29: Calibration of the measurement characteristic

MW: Measured value

V0: Measurement characteristic at factory setting
V1: Measurement characteristic after offset by +50%
V2: Measurement characteristic after offset by -50%

Setting range:

50 % to 150 %

The parameter is reset to the factory setting both via an application reset and a back-to-box reset.

Factory calibration:

The sensor is calibrated for flow measurement at the factory.

The calibration factor that was used at the factory calibration can be read on the device or via the IO-Link interface and cannot be configured.

The calibration factor is also listed in the calibration certificate.

▶ Go to ⓘ menu Device information and read the calibration factor.

Parameter setting via the device keys: calibration of the measurement characteristic

▶ Go to ✅ menu Settings > CFG > CAL.
▶ Select CGA.x and set the gradient of the measurement characteristic in per cent.

11.4.10 Influence of the medium on the temperature

The conductivity depends on the temperature. When the temperature increases, the conductivity changes. This temperature influence depends on the respective medium and can be compensated by the device if the temperature coefficient (TK) of the medium is known.

The temperature compensation is set with the T. Cmp parameter. Then the temperature-compensated conductivity value corresponds to the conductivity at standard temperature (25 °C; factory setting of the parameter rEF. T).

For medium that is not changed the same TK value has to be set for all sensors (device-independent characteristic value). There is no further dependence on the measuring principle, the lot or the manufacturer of the sensors.
If the temperature coefficient of the medium is not known, it can be determined. → Determination of the temperature coefficient tempco
In an IO-Link environment, existing TK values of the media can be stored as recipe in the controller so that the accuracy of the values to be detected is improved.

Determining the temperature coefficient TK

▶ Set the parameters T. Cmp and dAP to zero: T. Cmp = 0, dAP = 0.
▶ Write the changed values to the sensor.
▶ Adjust the medium to 25\ °C , for example, and take down the value of the conductivity after 2 minutes.
▶ Heat up the medium to 45\ °C , for example, and take down the value of the conductivity after 2 minutes.

Example of values taken down:

Medium at 25° C = 500 µ S/cm; medium at 45° C = 800 µ S/cm; temperature change = 20 K

▶ Calculate the change of the conductivity in percent.

▷ The conductivity has increased by 300 µ S/cm. The percentage change is 300/500 = 60 %.

▶ Calculate the temperature coefficient TK: the TK is calculated from the change in percent and the temperature change: TK = 60 % / 20 K = 3 % / K
▶ The calculated TK can now be adopted into the parameter T. Cmp. Example: T. Cmp = 3. If necessary, set the damping (parameter dAP) again.
▶ Write values to the sensor.

11.4.10.1 Parameter setting via the device keys: Temperature compensation

▶ Go to ⚙️ menu Settings > CFG > CAL.
▶ Select T. Cmp and set the temperature coefficient of the medium.
▶ Select rEF. T and enter the standard temperature.

11.4.11 Date and Time

Setting the date and time serves to provide events and measurements with a time stamp.

For this, the date and time must be set during set-up. When setting the time, wither a 12hr or 24hr format can be chosen. If the time is not set, the clock will start from an initial value (2024/01/01).

The device contains an internal energy storage unit so that, in the event of a power failure, the settings are saved for a transitional period. If the power supply is interrupted for too long, the display will show the ⏻ symbol and the message that the date and time are no longer set.

▶ Reset the date and time.

Parameter setting via the device keys: Date/time

▶ Go to ⚙️ menu Settings > CFG.
▶ Select Date and set the date and time:

• Date: year, month, day
• Clock format: 24h or 12h
• Time: hour, minute

▶ Change numerical values with ▼or ▲.
▶ Confirm numerical value and jump to next setting with Ⓞ.

11.4.12 Energy-saving mode

The device can be operated in energy-saving mode.

The ECO parameter can be used to select between two energy-saving levels: ECO and ECO+.

The energy-saving mode is switched off via the OFF setting.

Both energy-saving modes can be configured via the parameters E.dib and E. LED. In ECO+ mode, the measuring rate can also be set.

ECO =	Setting options
	Display brightnessE.dib	Operating status LDE. LED	Measuring rateE.rAt
[ECO]	25 %, 50 %, 75 %, 100 %, OFF	On, OFF, Noti, PdOU, PArASee Operating status LED ➕ 63	---
[ECO+]			Current measuring rate*:60...900 s

Tab. 14: Setting options for the two energy-saving modes.
* The accuracy indicated in the data sheet applies to the factory settings. Changing the measuring rate in ECO+ mode has a direct impact on the sensor's measurement accuracy.

If ECO = OFF is set, the general settings for Display brightness and Operating status LED → 63 apply.

Parameter setting via the device keys: Energy-saving mode

▶ Go to ⚙️ menu Settings > CFG.
▶ Select ECO and set the mode: OFF, ECO or ECO+.

2.	Time-controlled reset	rTox = ... Hours = reset after ... hours ... Days = reset after ... days ... Weeks = reset after ... weeks
3.	Reset via external signal	ou2 = In. DDIn2: +EDG = reset for rising edge -EDG = reset for falling edge HIGH = reset for high signal LOW = reset for low signal
4.	Reset via overflow (maximum display range is reached)	rTox = OFF

Only totaliser VTOTL1 can be reset via an external signal.

Totaliser Vol. L cannot be reset.

If totaliser VTOTL1 is reset in one of the above ways, the output is also reset in the case of consumed quantity monitoring.

11.4.14 Counting method of the totalisers

The totalisers VTOTL1 and VTOTL2 take account of the flow direction when totalising the consumed quantity. The following counting methods can be defined via the parameter FProx:

FProx	Counting method
0+	Negative volumetric flow values (against the marked flow direction) are not taken into account for totalling.
-0	Positive volumetric flow values (corresponding to the marked flow direction) are not taken into account for totalling.
-+	Negative flow values are subtracted from the consumed quantity.
++	All volumetric flow values are totalled irrespective of the volumetric flow direction.

Tab. 15: Counting method of the totalisers

The counting method of Vol. L cannot be set. The lifetime totaliser totals all volumetric flow quantities irrespective of the flow direction.

The counting method affects the output signals for consumed quantity monitoring.

→ Consumed quantity monitoring (totaliser function) → 41.

11.7.3 Simulation

With this function, process values are simulated and their signal path is checked.

Process values that lead to an error message or warning can be simulated (e.g. OL).

When the simulation is started, the values of the totaliser are frozen and the simulated totaliser is set to 0. The simulated flow value then has an effect on the simulated totaliser. When the simulation is ended, the initial totaliser values are restored.

During the simulation:

• The simulation has no effect on the current process values. The outputs operate as previously set.
• The original totaliser value remains saved without any changes even if there is a real flow.
• No error messages of the current application are available. They are suppressed by the simulation.

The following values can be simulated:

• Process values for flow, temperature and conductivity
• process values outside the measuring range (cr. UL, UL, OL, cr. OL)
  • The sensor is receiving no data (NoData)
  • No medium in the measuring pipe (Fluid Detection).
