Separate the MX 9000 Flow Monitor from packaging materials and check for any
visual signs of damage. If you determine there are damages caused by shipping,
file a claim with the shipping company. If the flow monitor appears to have been
improperly assembled or does not operate properly, return it for replacement or
repair (see Limited Warranty information at the end of this manual).
CAUTION: Before connecting, programming, or operating the MX 9000 Flow
Monitor, read this manual.
Quick Guide
CAUTION: As with any precision-engineered device, always operate the MX
9000 in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions.
Connect to Sensor
You will connect three wires from the sensor(s) to the back of the MX 9000:
An electrical power wire a signal wire, and a ground wire.
NOTICE: Dual input models use two sensors (terminals for sensor 2). Insert the stripped end of the
red wire into lower terminal #3 (6) and use a screwdriver to secure. Insert the stripped end of the
white wire into lower terminal #4 (7) and the stripped end of the black wire into lower terminal #5
(8). Use a screwdriver (push / release) to secure these wires with the spring terminals.
Connect to Power
Insert the leads from the 120VAC adaptor into terminals 1 & 2 of the lower block.
Plug the adaptor into a wall receptacle. If you are supplying power from a DC
source, insert the positive lead into terminal #1 and the negative lead to terminal
#2. DC input should be from 18 to 24 volts.
Basic Key Denitions
The MX 9000 has four keys for data input and programming:
• DOWN / NO
• UP / YES
• SELECT / RESET
• ENTER / EXIT
4
Use the SELECT key to move the cursor to the digit you would like to change or
reset the total values, use the UP and DOWN keys to change between screens
or increase or decrease the value as desired, and use the ENTER key to enter
the information.
Programming and Data Entry
Upon power up, move to the screen that you wish to adjust. Hold the ENTER
key in for 3 seconds and screen will change to programming mode. Follow
screen prompts.
When in programming mode, numerical values are underlined or you are
prompted to answer YES or NO. Use the SELECT key to move between
characters then the DOWN / UP keys to change. Press ENTER to store the
value. Use YES / NO to enter other setup functions and EXIT when completed.
See Programming the MX 9000 beginning on page 21 for complete details.

Product Description
The MX 9000 Flow Monitor is a versatile, multi-functional device that helps you
track rate, flow, limit, ratio, and other variables. The unit’s multicolor back-lighted
LCD display is easy-to-read with up to 22 different display modes available,
depending on model. The standard unit is one channel, but the optional twochannel version allows you to monitor dual flows and display them in a number
of ways: separately, as a sum (for example in total material use), as a difference
(as in fuel consumption), or as a ratio of product A/product B. You can also
use the MX 9000 to detect bi-directional flow when A and B channel signals
are available from a single flow meter. Other capabilities include the capacity to
monitor data and program the unit remotely. Four model variations give the MX
9000 the capability of performing limit, warning and alarm duties and batching.
Principle of Operation
After first making connections to the power source and to flow transmitter input
and output, you can choose up to 22 display modes. These include rates,
totals, ratios, limits and others, based on the model purchased. Then input kfactor values, the required engineering units, gate times, limits, etc. A 20 point
linearizer is built-in for added display accuracy. You may also program other
values such as warning/alarm limits and ratios, depending on model.

Technical Data
Minimum Power Supply Requirements
• 16 VAC/250mA with supplied 110 VAC transformer, or
• 18-24 VDC/250mA. (customer supplied direct current)
Pulse inputs are opto isolated and come referenced to signal ground. Regulated
+15 VDC at 50mA max is available for powering each sensor. Inputs can also be
isolated from the control power by cutting CT1 or CT2 with a sharp knife but then
the internal +15 VDC supply is not available. Minimum input voltage is 5 VDC
peak for pulses.
Figure 2: Sensor/Pulse Inputs
Reset Input
Opto-isolated external reset input will trigger the MX 9000 to reset the
totalizer(s) when the input sees a momentary transition from low (ground) to high
(near supply). Reset input can be isolated from internal ground by cutting CT3
with a sharp knife.
Figure 3: Reset Input
10
Analog Output(s)
The isolated 16-bit 4-20mA output(s) can be wired for use with Loop powered
inputs or for ground referenced inputs. The analog signal has an internal LED
in series which varies in intensity as the mA signal varies. This can be used
for troubleshooting purposes. When using the analog signal with inputs used
with loop powered signals, it is important to note that the MX 9000 requires an
external power supply to power the loop as shown below.
Figure 4: Analog Outputs
Frequency Output (option boards 1 and 2)
An opto-isolated NPN open-collector output can sink or source depending on
connection. Attention must be paid to polarity of connections. Limit circuit
current to 50 mA and 30 VDC for this circuit.
Figure 5: Frequency Output
Relay Outputs
Two form C relay outputs are available on option boards 1 and 2. They are
programmed by the limit screens as to the function of each. See Relay Contact
Ratings on page 10 for limits.

Figure 6: Relay Outputs
Analog Input (option board 1)
The analog input is available on option board 1. It can be configured for either
a 4-20 mA input or a 0-5 or 0-10 VDC input. The input is referenced to the
system common. Programming of the input is done using JP1. For 4-20 mA,
use jumper pins 1&3 and 2&4. For 0-5 VDC, use jumper pins 3&5 and 4&6.
For 0-10 VDC, use jumper pins 3&5 only. Pins are identified on the printed
circuit board. Remove back cover to access.
Figure 7: Analog Input
120/240 VAC Input (option board 2)
The line voltage input is available on option board 2. It can be configured for
120 or 240 volt input using jumper pins 1. For 120 volt input jumper both sets
of outside pins (see decal on board). For 240 volt input jumper only the center
two pins (see decal). NOTE – board is factory set for 120 volt input.

Figure 8: 120/240 VAC Input
Batch Controller Inputs (option board 3)
Five inputs are available for remote control of the batch process. You must have
ordered the batch model to access these inputs (MX9-B). A 15 VDC output is
provided as a supply for the inputs. Program / Run uses a maintained contact
(switch), and the other inputs require momentary signals.

S/N 0000000
Software Version 1.0.0
HART SW Version 1.0.0
The LOGO screen shows 3 or 4 lines of important data for the display unit which
is needed if contacting the factory for support issues.
1. Line 1 shows the basic model name
2. Line 2 shows the unique serial number of the unit.
3. Line 3 shows the firmware version of the unit
Pushing the SELECT button on the LOGO screen will show the actual model
number of the MX 9000. As the features vary with the model, please make a
note of this while reading through this manual.
Rate Screens
RATE A (B)
600.00 GPM
The RATE screen displays the flow rate of A or B in the programmed engineering
units. If the linearizer is active, ‘LN’ shows in lower left corner. If the Gate Time
filter is active, ‘GT’ shows in lower right corner.
Total / Grand Total Screens
TOTAL A (B)
6000 GAL
15
The TOTAL screen displays the flow total of A or B in programmed engineering
units. Pressing the RESET button resets the value back to zero (0). The Total
can also be reset remotely by connecting a momentary voltage to the external
RESET input.
GRAND TOTAL A (B)
6000 GAL
The GRAND TOTAL screen can be accessed using the ENTER button from the
TOTAL screen. To reset this total pressing the RESET button will request the
user to enter a password at this point. Use the UP – DOWN – SELECT buttons
to enter the password code of “53126”. Then press the RESET button which will
reset the grand total value back to zero (0).
Note that both grand totals must be reset independent of one another.
The STATUS screen is a raw data display of the current major properties of

the monitor. The rates are shown as Hz, total in pulses, limits as on or off and
current loop output (main loop only) in programmed mA DC.
NOTE: The Gate Time lter and linearizer, if acve, do not aect the ow rate value in the STATUS
screen.
This is the raw incoming frequency. The mA shown is not a direct reading of the
loop current if there are other problems outside of the controller such as a broken
wire or defective loop power source.
NOTE: Because the mA value is an actual signal output, it is aected by the Gate Time and linearizer,
if acvated.
