MENU 1 - SENSOR
Menu visuali zed on the transmitter (from 1 to 11)
The following pages give a description of the most important functions and how they can be changed or
enabled/disabled by the user.
(POS. 1.11) Electrodes cleaning [El. cleaning]
Selectable options: OFF, minimum, average and maximum. It is not recommended the use of this
function (let OFF) when the liquid has a conductivity less than 100μS/cm.
(POS. 1.12) Empty pipe threshold [E.P. thr.=XXX]
This value represents the threshold of measure block to zero in empty pipe condition; the span
function is 0-255. Since the sensibility of empty pipe detection could be changed by the liquid
conductivity, ground connections, type of lining, in case of needed it is possible to adjust manually
the preset threshold. It is recommended to check periodically its proper functioning. Value
increasing means sensibility decreasing.
(POS. 1.13) Autozero calibration [Autozero cal.]
This function activates the zero calibration automatic system. To perform this operation, it is
necessary for the sensor to be full of liquid, and the liquid be perfectly still. Even minimal
movement of the liquid may affect the result, and consequently, the accuracy of the system. Once
you are sure the above conditions have been fulfilled (and the percentage flow rate value is stable)
press the key and automatically activates the zeroing procedure, after which it is necessary to
check that the percentage value showed goes to zero, repeat the operation otherwise. When the
value is stable at zero, then press the key.
(POS. 2.1-2) Full scale N.1-2 [Fs1-2=dm³/s X.XXXX]
The Full scale range N.1-2 is the corresponding output signal (20mA) to the meters maximum flow
rate (max 10m/s). There are four fields to fill in order to set this parameter, from left to right: 1)
volume measure unit, 2) unit type, 3) time measure unit and 4) numeric value. The selection is
made by positioning the cursor on the field to modify. To change the measure unit type (metric,
British or American, mass or volume) the cursor has to be positioned on the symbol “/” (field N. 2).
When the nominal diameter is set to zero it is possible to modify only the numeric field, since the
measure unit stays at m/sec.
The following tables show the available measure units and the conversion factor by comparison

diversified by using capital and small characters.
When a mass measure unit is set, the specific gravity function is automatically enabled by the
system. Please, note that the mass measure is heavily affected by the temperature. With certain
liquids this may cause significant measurement errors. The following time measure units can be
selected: s = second, m = minute, h = hour, d = day.
(POS. 2.3) Measure unit and decimal places number [Tot.MU=dm³ X.XXX]
Setting the measure unit and decimals places number displayed for the volumes. To set the
measure unit, position the cursor on the measure unit field. To set the unit type, position the cursor
on the blank space between the measure unit and the numeric value; the decimal places number
can be selected by placing the cursor on numeric field and choosing one of the possible
combinations: 1000-01.00-001.0-00001.
(POS. 2.4-5) Pulse value channel 1-2 and total measure unit [Pls1-2=dm³ X.XXXXX]
Setting of a flow volume by which a corresponding pulse will be emitted on channel 1-2, units must
be identical to ‘Full scale’ and ‘Totalizer’ functions. To set the parameter, complete the three fields,
from left to right: 1) measure unit, 2) unit type and 3) numeric value. The selection is performed by
positioning the cursor in the field to be modified. To change the unit type (metric, British or
American, mass or volume) position the cursor on the blank space between the measure unit and
the numeric value. When the nominal diameter is set to zero it is possible to modify only the
numeric field since the measure unit stays at meters (m) or feet (ft). Only those units described
above are available to be selected. This function is active only if the pulse emission on channel is
enabled.
Setting of the pulse duration generated on channel 1-2. This value is expressed in milliseconds and
has to be between 0.4 and 9999.99. When the high frequency output is present, then the minimum
value can be set to a minimum of 0.04 milliseconds. ATTENTION: since the transmitter cannot
detect which device type is connected to the transmitter, the user must verify that the set pulse
duration is compatible with the external device processing such pulses. If, for example, an electromechanical pulse counter is connected, one of two problems may occur; firstly, if the pulse is too
long the coils may burn out, secondly, if the pulse is too short, the counter may not be able to
function, with the possibility of causing damage to the output.

MENU 3 - MEASURE
(POS. 3.1) Damping [Damping=OFF/SMARTX /(time)]
This section of the manual is extremely important. The correct filter settings ensures a proper
response of the instrument to the measured flow rate. The available dampening filter values range
between no damping (damping=OFF) and maximum damping based of 1000 seconds
(Damping=1000).
The three diagrams below demonstrate the instrument behavior with different dampening settings
with flow rate changes in the range of 1-100%.

Damping mode based on
time (fro
0.2s to 1000s) The measure
is averaged over a number of
samples determined by the
value assigned to the
dampening function. When
the damping parameter is
expressed in seconds, the
filter works damping the
measurement noise and
sudden change of flow rate.
Increasing the parameter of
damping increases the
stability of the
measurement.
Enables/disables the automatic scale change. The meter may have two different working ranges in
order to suit variable process conditions. In order to get the best results out of this function it is
important that range N.2 is greater than N.1. When the flow rate increases and reaches the 100%
of the scale N.1, the meter automatically switches to scale N.2. When the flow rate subsequently
decreases to an equivalent value on scale N.2 (equal to the 90% of full scale N.1), scale N.1 will
assume the active scale. Allowed values for this parameter: ON/OFF.
Note: the autorange does not allow using the manual change of range (pos. 5.8)
(POS. 4.4) Current output value in failure case [mA v.fault =% XXX]
Setting of the value of the 4-20mA current output in one or more of the following cases; empty
pipe, ADC error, and coils interrupted.
The permitted range is from 0% to 120% of the 0-20mA scales, 120% corresponds to 24mA and
does not depend on the selected range (0-20/4-20mA).
The NAMUR NE43 recommendations requires alarms signaling value for a current output lower than
3.6 mA (<18%) or greater than 21mA (>105%). It is preferable to set the value of this function at
10%, so that the current value in cases of a.m. would be 2mA, allowing the following diagnostics:
current < 2mA - 5%: line interrupted, power supply failure or faulty transmitter;
2mA -5% ≤ current ≤ 2mA + 5%: hardware alarm;
4mA ≤ current ≤ 20mA: normal working range;
20mA < current ≤ 22mA: out of range, measure above 100% full scale (f.s.).
(POS. 4.5) Frequency output value in failure case [Hz v.fault=% XXX]
To set the frequency value assigned to the on/off output in one or more of the following cases:
Empty pipe; coils interrupted; ADC error
Allowable range from 0% to 125% of the frequency full scale value.
Although there are no specific rules regulating cases such as these, it would be convenient to use
the failure information as follows:
0% Hz ≤ frequency ≤ 100% f.s.: normal working range;
100% f.s. < frequency ≤ 110% f.s.: overflow, measure above the 100% of the f.s.;
115% f.s. ≤ frequency ≤ 125% f.s.: hardware alarm condition.
This function enables/disables the automatic zero calibration system. When this function is active,
applying a voltage on the meter’s on/off input terminals performs an autozero calibration cycle.
ATTENTION: if the voltage pulse is less 1 sec., the meter performs an Auto calibration cycle to
compensate possible thermal drifts. If the voltage pulse is more 1 sec, the meter performs an
Autozero measure calibration.

(POS. 6.3) Current output option and range [Out mA=X_XX XXX]
This function sets the current output N.1. This function is optional and will not appear unless the
option has been requested. There are three fields to modify for this function:
• Scale zero: 4 or 0mA
• Full scale: 20 or 22mA
• Field: + = positive, - = negative, blank = both, -0+ = central zero scale
The values corresponding to the scale points are shown in the following chart:
In hardware alarm conditions “HARDW AL.” (interrupted coils, empty pipe, measure error) the
current value is programmed by the function “mA v.fault” (pos. 4.4) and it is expressed as
percentage of a fixed current range, where: 0% = 0mA and 110% = 22mA.

(POS. 8.8-9) Conversion factor for flow rate totalizers [EUR/dm³+/- =X]
Setting of the conversion/currency value for direct (and reverse) flow totalizers. There are three
setting fields for this parameter, from left to right: 1) monetary symbol, 2) default/personalized
monetary symbol, 3 ) conversion coefficient. To select, set the cursor over the field to be modified.
Setting the monetary symbol can be achieved in two ways:
1. Choosing one of the 7 predetermined monetary symbols (standard ISO 4217-REV81):
EUR=Euro; USD=USA dollar; CAD=Canadian dollar; AUD=Australian dollar; GPB=English
pound; CHF=Swissfranc; JPY=Japanese yen.
2. Entering a three character (numbers or letters) personalized currency. To change the
characters, the cursor must be set on the symbol “/” (second field)
Activates the reset of total and partial flow totalizer. These functions are activated by pressing the
key during the visualization of the function itself. When "EXECUTE?" is required, press to
proceed. Press any other key to delete the operation.
(POS. 10.1) Meter calibration [Calibration]
Enables the meter calibration function. The activation of this function happens by pressing the key
during the function visualization, at the following question will be visualized: "EXECUTE?", so press
the key to proceed. Press any other key to delete the operation.
(POS. 10.2) Self test function [Self test]
Meter auto test function. This function stops the meter normal functions and performs a complete
test cycle on the measuring input circuits and the excitation generator. To activate this function,
selecting it, by pressing the key , at the prompt: “EXECUTE?” press the key to start the test,
any other key will delete the operation. The test result is shown on the display, the display will
return to one of the visualization pages at the test end. The function is automatically performed
when the device is switched on. For any errors see the next page for corrective actions.
Flow rate simulation enabling. This function allows for the possible generation of an internal signal
that simulates the flow rate, allowing the outputs and all the connected instruments to be tested.
After enabling it, a ‘S’ appears in the top right of the screen and the flow rate simulation can be:
set: by pushing the key from one of visualization pages, to set the required % flow rate
(Fl.rate=%) and the same key to confirm the value;
finished: by pushing the key from visualization pages and then by pushing the key .
