Scanner 3100 EFM Section 1
Section 1—Introduction
About the Scanner 3100 EFM
The Scanner* 3100 EFM is uniquely designed to serve as a stand-alone ow computer or as a network manager capable
of collecting and storing data from up to 20 Scanner 2000 Series ow computers. As a stand-alone ow computer, the
Scanner 3100 offers dual ow stream and bidirectional measurement and control, as well as the processing power to
handle the industry’s most challenging ow computations for liquid and natural gas measurement. For operations requiring the monitoring of several measurement points, the Scanner 3100 combines up to 20 external wired or wireless Scanner 2000 Series devices into a single scalable local area network that can be managed via a web browser-based interface.
Each of the three serial ports can support multiple wired Scanner 2000 Series devices or other external Modbus devices.
Optional wireless communications signicantly reduce installation costs and setup time and increase worker safety.
The device is explosion-proof and approved by for ATEX/IECEx Zone 1 hazardous area installations and for CSA Class
I, Division 1 hazardous area installations. It is designed for use with a 9-30 VDC external power supply (9 to 24 VDC in
Mexico installations) and two optional lithium battery packs for backup power.
The Scanner 3100 can be ordered with a multivariable transmitter (MVT) and paired with a cone or orice meter for accurate measurement of liquids and natural gas. The Scanner device also computes the corrected (standard) amounts of
uid using signals from external turbine, positive displacement (PD), Venturi, Coriolis and ultrasonic ow meters and
integral or remote pressure and temperature sensors. The measured uids may be expressed as volume, mass or energy
accumulations or rates. See Table 1.4—Flow Rate Standards, page 23 and Table 1.5—Fluid Property and Energy Flow
Calculations, page 24 for a detailed description of supported calculations.
In addition to its two integral ow runs, the device supports 17 inputs and outputs and communications with chromatographs, samplers, and densitometers.
The device logs daily and hourly ow data for each ow run, and provides one-second triggered logging for analysis of
critical events. High-speed communication via Modbus and Enron Modbus protocols makes it easy to integrate the Scanner 3100 into other measurement systems. When congured for use with Modbus master protocol, each of the device’s
three serial ports can log up to 128 data points from external Modbus devices.
For a complete list of specications, see Specications, page 15.
Web Browser-Based Interface
A web browser-based interface equips you to congure ow runs, gas streams, and inputs/outputs, calibrate inputs, and
view archive data from a laptop, tablet, smartphone, or other browser-enabled mobile device without installing software.
You need only an Ethernet connection and an IP address to connect to the device. Four user security levels are available for customizing access for up to 20 users. An electronic user manual (PDF) is embedded in the interface, providing
searchable on-screen help. To position the manual alongside the user interface for simultaneous viewing, congure your
laptop per the instructions provided in the Scanner 3100 Web Interface User manual.

Battery Packs
Cameron’s dual lithium battery packs (Figure 1.3, page 10) provide backup power for the Scanner 3100. Battery life
can vary signicantly depending on the input and output congurations in use. For continuous operation, an external primary power supply is required (9 to 30 VDC at 150 mA; for Mexico installations, use 9 to 24 VDC at 150 mA).
WARNING: EXPLOSION RISK. Housing temperature must not exceed 70 degC (158 degF). Excessive tem-
peratures, which could result from ambient conditions combined with radiated and conductive heat from
!
the process, could cause the internal lithium battery to ignite or explode.
Each stick-style battery pack contains two 3.6 V batteries. Together, the dual packs can autonomously power the device
for a short period (approximately 2 to 3 weeks with a default conguration) in the event of a primary power outage. With
dual packs installed, you can replace a depleted battery pack without interrupting operations even when the device is operating solely on battery power.

Explosion-Proof Control Switch
An external explosion-proof control switch (Figure 1.4) allows you to manually control the operation of a peripheral device (such as a radio), unlatch an alarm, or reset a total being accumulated by the device, depending on how it is congured. The switch is available in either of two models:
• Toggle Switch. Opens or closes a circuit with each push and release of the button. Uses include manual control of
ow accumulation, and manual control of a triggered archive.
• Momentary Switch. Opens or closes a circuit when the button is pushed and held in position. Unlike the toggle
switch, the switch action is terminated upon release of the button. Uses include pacing the display, toggling a wireless
transmitter on and off, resetting grand totals for ow run or pulse input accumulations, unlatching a digital output, and
resetting a latch on a triggered archive.
Figure 1.4—Explosion-proof control switch (left); control switch with factory-installed safety lockout device (right)
Control switches are wired and pre-congured at the factory (Figure 1.5, page 11) when they are purchased with the
Scanner 3100. However, you can change the conguration via the web interface. A momentary switch is connected to
DIO Terminal 5 at the factory, and a toggle switch is connected to DIO Terminal 6. See Digital Inputs—Contact Closure,
page 61 and Digital Outputs, page 64 for wiring diagrams.
Either switch is available with a factory-installed mechanical lockout device (Figure 1.4, right) that can be used with a

Scanner 3100 EFM Section 1
Wireless Communications
The Scanner 3100 wireless communications option includes a factory-installed wireless radio module and an explosionproof coupler (Figure 1.8) that enables an external antenna to be safely used in a hazardous area.
Explosion-proof Coupler
An explosion-proof coupler is factory-installed in the top left conduit opening of the Scanner 3100 enclosure and the
coupler cable is factory-connected to the radio module inside the Scanner 3100. The coupler is rated for compliance with
CSA (North America) or ATEX certication requirements. See Table 7.2—Wireless Components, page 88 for replace-
ment part numbers.
Direct-Mount Antenna
The Cameron-supplied right-angle antenna (Figure 1.8) connects directly to the threaded coupler connection. When installing the antenna, ensure that it is in a vertical position well above ground level and positioned away from large structures that could interfere with signal transmission and reception.
Cameron’s direct-mount antenna is rated for a maximum of 1 watt of power and a maximum antenna gain of 10 dB (in
North America) and has a frequency range of 2.35 to 2.50 GHz. Antennas with equivalent ratings may also be used with
the coupler.
Antenna coupler
Figure 1.8—Direct-mount antenna and explosion-proof antenna coupler (left); the coupler cable is factory-connected to
the Scanner 3100 enclosure
Remote-Mount Antenna
In locations where a physical barrier restricts the use of a direct-mount antenna or where a longer transmission distance
is required, a remote-mount antenna (Figure 1.9, page 14) may be installed up to 30 ft (10 m) away and connected by
cable to the antenna coupler. A remote-mount antenna and connecting cable may be purchased from Cameron (see Sec-
tion 7—Scanner 3100 Parts, page 87). If purchasing cable elsewhere, verify that the cable meets the maximum capaci-
tance and inductance ratings (Figure 2.5, page 32) and that the cable length is adequate to connect to both the antenna
and the coupler. See Specications, page 15 for additional details.
The installation of the antenna coupler, antennas, and antenna cable must meet the requirements shown in Figure 2.4 and
Figure 2.5, page 32. For installation instructions, see:
• Remote-Mount Antenna for Pole Outside Diameters up to 2 Inches, page 34
• Remote-Mount Antenna for Pipe Outside Diameters of 2 3/8 Inches, page 35

Conguration Lock
The conguration lock is located inside the Scanner 3100 housing along the top edge of the display circuit board assembly, just left of center (Figure 1.10). The switch can be enabled to prevent unauthorized individuals from changing
the conguration of the Scanner 3100. By default, this conguration lock feature is disabled and the switch position is
ignored. The conguration lock feature must be enabled via the ADMINISTRATION>GENERAL>SECURITY page
of the Scanner 3100 web interface. For more information, see the Scanner 3100 Web Interface User Manual. After a device is fully congured, the lock can be enabled by changing the mechanical switch to the active position (pushed in the
direction of the display face) and enable the switch in the web interface security settings. After the lid is replaced, a wire
can be connected to an external set screw and secured with a lead seal to prevent unauthorized conguration changes.

Flow Rate and Fluid Property Calculations
The Scanner 3100 calculates ow rates and uid properties for natural gas and liquid ow in accordance with the following industry standards. The calculations compensate for the effects of pressure, temperature, and uid composition to
determine mass and volume at specied base conditions. The uid corrections typically require conguration of inputs
including static pressure and temperature. The ow calculation requires conguration of differential pressure or pulse
(frequency) inputs.

(2004), the ISO-5167 orice ow calculation was adopted without modication.
The ISO orice meter can be used to measure natural gas and liquids.
ISO 5167-4 provides information for calculating ow rates with Venturi tubes.
It is applicable only to Venturi tubes in which the ow remains subsonic
throughout the measuring section and where the uid can be considered
as single-phase. In addition, each of these devices can only be used within
specied limits of pipe size, roughness, diameter ratio and Reynolds number.
ISO 5167 4 is not applicable to the measurement of pulsating ow. It does not
cover the use of Venturi tubes in pipes sized less than 50 mm or more than
1200 mm, or for where the pipe Reynolds numbers are below 20000.
For low ow applications, the Scanner 3100 supports the small bore orice

The worldwide standard for calculating the physical properties of natural gas and
similar gases is the AGA 8 92DC equation originally described in AGA Report No. 8
(1992). The 2017 edition, Part 1, uses the same DETAIL equations of state as in the
1994 edition of AGA 8. However, the temperature, pressure, and gas composition
limits have been modied in this edition.
Use of this calculation requires a gas analysis, i.e. knowledge of the mole fractions of
21 gas components: the alkanes methane through decane, common diluents including nitrogen, carbon dioxide, hydrogen sulde, and assorted trace components. In
ISO 12213-2 (1997), the AGA 8 92DC equation was adopted without modication.
The AGA 8 92DC equation is most accurate between temperatures of 17 degF and
143 degF (–8 degC to 62 degC) and at pressures up to 1,750 psia (12 MPa). If lesser
accuracy is acceptable, the range can be extended from –200 degF to 400 degF
(–130 degC to 200 degC) and pressures up to 20,000 psi (140 MPa). This uid calculation will provide the computed value for Speed of Sound.
When the detailed composition of the gas is unknown, an alternative method of characterizing the gas is available. It is based on the gross properties: real gas relative density
(gas gravity), and content of carbon dioxide and nitrogen. This method detailed in AGA
8 and ISO 12213-3 is based on the SGerg-88 equation. The Gross Characterization
method should only be used at temperatures between 17 degF and 143 degF (–8
degC to 62 degC) and at pressures below 1,750 psia (12 MPa). Gravity range is from
0.554 to 0.87; up to 28.94% carbon dioxide, and up to 53.6% nitrogen. This method
should not be used outside of these limits.
AGA 8, Part II uses temperature, pressure, and gas molar composition to compute
uid density at base and owing conditions. AGA 8, Part II is used with a ow calculation to determine uid ow rate.
The temperature and pressure correction factors for hydrocarbon liquids including
crude oil, rened products (gasoline, jet fuel, fuel oils), lubricating oils, and special
products are calculated according to API MPMS Chapter 11.1 (2004). For crude oils,
the density range is 610.6 to 1,163.5 kg/m3, temperature range is from –58 degF to
302 degF (–50 degC to 150 degC), and pressure range is from 0 to 1,500 psig (0 to
10,340 kPa). For differential pressure meters, the viscosity at operating temperature
is a required input to the ow computer, and it must be determined as accurately as
possible.
API MPMS Chapter 20.1, Section 1.9.5.4, provides procedure for computing net oil
volume in an oil/water mixture when watercut is higher than normal and a dynamic
sampling method, such as an online watercut analyzer, is used to measure watercut,
incorporating a shrinkage factor where applicable.

Flow Correction Factors
The Scanner 3100 measures compensated petroleum liquid ow using an orice or cone ow meter. For accuracy, these
measurements often include a correction factor to compensate for the effect of gas or water on volume, or changes in
calibration. Table 1.6 describes the correction factors congurable in the Scanner 3100 web interface.

Flow Correction Factor Description

Correction (for Gas and

Chisholm-Steven Orice
Meter Multiphase
Correction (for Steam)
The multipoint meter factor calibration method allows users to compensate for
variations between calibrations without changing the meter K-factor from the value
stamped on the meter at the factory. Meter factors are typically determined through
calibrations performed by third-party test laboratories. You can enter the appropriate
factor during calibration to account for any variation in the calibration curve over
Reynolds numbers.
The Chisholm-Steven correction method is used for over-reading prediction in wet
vapor ow conditions (multiphase) for water at the owing conditions along the
saturation line. When provided with a quality measurement, the vapor ow is corrected
and the estimated liquid ow is accumulated.

Flow Correction Factor Description
Crude Oil Shrinkage
Factor
Base Sediment and Water
(BS&W) Correction Factor
This correction factor allows users who are measuring crude oil to automatically
correct their liquid volume measurements for the effects of gas content. When the oil
is discharged from a pipeline to a stock tank at atmospheric conditions, the volatile
components in the oil evaporate, causing a reduction in liquid volume. When live oils
are metered (e.g., test separators), a shrinkage factor must be applied to correct the
measured liquid volume from the metering pressure and temperature to stock tank
conditions unless the meter is proved to stock tank conditions. Shrinkage volumes are
typically obtained with a shrinkage tester. This correction method will correct the meter
reading for both dissolved gas and for oil volume reduction. It will not compensate for
the effects of uid viscosity changes. Shrinkage volumes or factors are often used to
mitigate safety and environmental concerns when live oil volumes are measured at high
pressures or when the live oil contains hydrogen sulde (H2S).
Crude oil generally contains some water. The BS&W correction provides a means

based on a user-entered value (assumed to be constant) or on a watercut monitor/

Section 2—Installing the Scanner 3100 EFM
Overview
The Scanner 3100 ow computer is fully assembled at the time of shipment and ready for mounting. However, Cameron
recommends that operators congure the EFM prior to mounting if the instrument is to be installed in a hazardous area.
The enclosure must be opened to congure the device, either via keypad controls or via software, and once the instrument is mounted in a hazardous area, the cover should not be removed unless the area is void of combustible gas and
vapors.
Hazardous Area Precautions
The Scanner 3100 is ATEX/IECEx-certied (Zone 1) and CSA-certied (Class I, Div. 1) for hazardous area use. Installation requirements vary, depending on the certication required. Carefully review the following hazardous area requirements before installing a Scanner 3100 in a hazardous area.
ATEX Installations (Conditions for Safe Use)
The ATEX-certied standard Scanner 3100 is fully compliant with European ATEX Directive 94/9/EC and has been
evaluated per the following standards:
• IECEx: IEC 60079-0:2011, Edition 6, IEC 60079-1:2007-04, Edition 6, IEC 60079-11:2006, Edition 5, and IEC
60079-31:2013, Edition 2
• ATEX: EN 60079-0:2012, EN 60079-1:2007, EN 60079-11:2012, EN 60079-31:2014
The following instructions apply to equipment covered by certicate numbers Sira15ATEX 1122X and IECEx SIR
15.0049X:
• When removing the conduit plug to t the data transfer socket to the communication adaptor and during data
transfer, the user/installer shall ensure that no explosive atmosphere is present. After data transfer has nished, the
conduit plug shall be retted in accordance with the relevant Code of Practice.
• Under rated conditions, the branching point at the entry point may reach 80 degC (176 degF); therefore, when
choosing cables and cable glands, this shall be taken into account.
• When removing or replacing the internal battery packs, this shall be done in accordance with the user instructions
provided by the manufacturer, and the user/installer shall ensure that no explosive atmosphere is present.
• The user/installer shall install this equipment taking into account any restrictions or special conditions for safe use that
are applicable to the previously certied devices that are used in its construction.
Wiring Precautions
CAUTION In accordance with EN60079-0, Clause 16.6, all cable and cable glands must be rated for 80 degC
(176 degF). The Scanner 3100 may be tted as a remote unit when all the cable entries are tted
with ameproof glands that have been suitably certied by a notied body.
RTD Assembly Options (for Gas and Liquid Flow Runs Only)
The process temperature input is typically supplied by an RTD installed in a thermowell downstream of the primary
differential pressure source. The location of the thermowell should conform to the relative standard to ensure accurate
measurement. Use only an RTD assembly that is tted with a suitably certied, Ex d IIC cable entry gland, such as the
ameproof RTD (Part No. 9A-X-TTXR-0003) listed in Table 7.1—Scanner 3100 EFM Parts, page 87.

Measuring Natural Gas via a Differential Pressure Meter
Best Practices
For best measurement accuracy, ensure that the meter run complies with the following AGA 3 and ISO 5167 guidelines,
as applicable:
• Do not place unit near vents or bleed holes that discharge corrosive vapors or gases.
• Consider the orientation of the meter run when determining the best position for mounting the Scanner 3100.
– If the Scanner 3100 is mounted to a horizontal pipeline, make sure process connections are at the top of the line,
and mount the Scanner 3100 above the pressure connections at the pipe.
– If the Scanner 3100 is mounted to a vertical pipeline, install the sensor above the differential pressure source
connections, or install a condensate (drip) pot to prevent the accumulation of liquid in interconnecting tubes.
Slope all tubing upward at least 1 in./LF to avoid liquid entrapment.
• Mount the Scanner 3100 as near level as possible such that the operator has a clear view of the LCD and can access
the keypad easily when the enclosure cover is removed. The location should be as free from vibration as possible.
• Ensure the high port of the sensor (marked H) is connected to the upstream side of the meter run.
• Flow should remain subsonic throughout the measuring section and should be single phase.
• Pipe diameters (D) should be between 2 in. (50 mm) and 39 in. (1,000 mm) per ISO 5167; or greater than 2 in. (50
mm) per AGA 3.
• Pipe Reynolds numbers must be above 5,000.
• d (orice diameter) must be greater than or equal to 0.45 in. (11.5 mm).
37
Page 38
Section 2 Scanner 3100 EFM
• β (diameter ratio) must be greater than or equal to 0.1 and less than or equal to 0.75.
• Gauge lines should be of uniform internal diameter and constructed of material compatible with the uid being
measured. For most applications, the bore should be no smaller than 1/4 in. (6 mm) and preferably, 3/8 in. (10
mm) in diameter. The internal diameter should not exceed 1 in. (25 mm). If high-temperature uids are likely to be
encountered, make sure the measuring tube used is rated for the anticipated temperature range.
• Gauge line length should be minimized to help prevent pulsation-induced errors.
• Gauge lines should slope downward to the meter at a minimum of 1 in. per foot.
• If gauge lines must slope in more than one direction, do not allow more than one bend and install a liquid or gas
trap, as applicable. A liquid trap should be installed at the lowest point in a gas service installation.
• Gauge lines should be supported to prevent sag and vibration.
• Where pulsation is anticipated, full-port manifold valves with a nominal internal diameter consistent with the gauge
lines are recommended.
If the Scanner 3100 is mounted to a cone meter, consider the following best practices as well:
• Position the cone meter so that there are 0 to 5 diameters of straight pipe upstream of the meter and 0 to 3 diameters
of straight pipe downstream of the meter.
• Install the meter so that the static pressure tap is upstream of the differential pressure tap. The high side of the
integral Scanner 3100 sensor must also be situated upstream.
• Install shutoff valves directly on the pressure taps. Choose a shutoff valve that is rated for the ambient temperatures of
the location and the operating pressure of the pipe in which it will be installed, and suitable for use with dangerous or
corrosive uids or gases, if applicable. The valves must not affect the transmission of the differential pressure signal.
Direct Mount to Orice Meter or Cone Meter
A Scanner 3100 can be mounted directly to an orice meter or cone meter for gas measurement. The setup of the meter
run and plumbing congurations can vary widely, depending upon the challenges existing on location. Figure 2.9 shows
a typical direct-mount installation.
Figure 2.9—Direct-mount installation in an orice meter run. The direct-mount method can be used with a cone meter as
well.

Measuring Natural Gas via a Turbine Meter
Best Practices
The Scanner 3100 calculates gas ow through a turbine meter in accordance with AGA 7 and API MPMS Chapter 21.1
industry standards. For optimum performance, ensure that the turbine and Scanner 3100 installation complies with the
industry recommendations listed below:
• Install the turbine owmeter in the meter run such that there are 10 nominal diameters of straight pipe upstream
and 5 nominal diameters of straight pipe downstream of the meter. Both inlet and outlet pipe should be of the same
nominal size as the meter.
• Straightening vanes are recommended for eliminating swirl conditions. If used, they should be installed 5 diameters
of straight pipe upstream of the meter.
• Where an RTD is used to facilitate compensated gas measurement from a gas turbine meter, locate the RTD within 5
diameters of straight pipe downstream of the meter outlet and upstream of any valve or ow restriction.
Remote Mount to a Turbine Meter
A Scanner 3100 can be mounted remotely and connected to a gas turbine meter for measuring gas in accordance with
AGA 7 calculations. Figure 2.11, page 42 shows an installation in which the pressure input is provided by the integral
MVT. The setup of the meter run and plumbing congurations can vary widely, depending upon the challenges existing
on location.

Measuring Steam via a Differential Pressure Meter
Note Steam uid types are only supported for ow rate calculation methods using orice meters or cone meters.
Best Practices
The Scanner 3100 calculates steam ow in accordance with IF-97, AGA-3, and ISO-5167 industry standards. For optimum performance, ensure that the installation complies with the following industry recommendations:
Condensate Pots
• A condensate pot for a small-volume transducer like the Scanner 3100 MVT can be a simple pipe tee, oriented so
• The pots should be the highest point in the system.
• The pots should be mounted at the same level, and one or both should be adjustable vertically to remove zero shifts in
42
that one port extends downward (into the cold leg), the opposite port extends upward and is closed by a pipe cap or
blowdown valve, and the tee extends horizontally into the hot leg.
the differential pressure measurement.
Page 43
Scanner 3100 EFM Section 2
Hot Legs
• Hot legs should be large diameter (1/2 in. recommended)
• Hot legs should be as short as possible. If these sections must be more than 1ft in length, insulate them.
• Elbows and bends should not form any traps in which liquid can accumulate.
• Hot legs should be sloped along their entire length to allow liquids to drain back into the pipe.
Cold Legs
• Cold legs should enter the multi-variable sensor through its bottom ports. Side port installation is also available.
Contact your sales representative or technical support for assistance with side port installation.
• Cold legs should not be insulated and should be a minimum of 2 ft in length to allow proper convection cooling of
the process uid to below 120 degF. The nominal rate of cooling is 100 degF/ft, with an ambient temperature of 70
degF.
• If the cold leg must be installed horizontally, ensure a slope of approximately 1 in./ft to allow air bubbles to oat up
into the pots.
• Elbows and bends should not form any traps for air bubbles.
• Cold legs should be lled with a suitable antifreeze. Dibutyl phthalate is recommended.
Antifreeze
Dibutyl phthalate (DBP) has the following advantages over glycol antifreeze:
• Does not mix with water, and therefore does not become dilute over time; its specic gravity does not shift.
• It is slightly denser than water, so it will stay in the pot permanently.
• It is non-ammable.
• It is much less toxic than glycol.
• It is available from industrial suppliers.
Valves
• Use only full-opening block valves that are rated for steam service.
• Use only blowdown valves rated for steam service. Periodic blowdowns are recommended to prevent scale build up.
CAUTION Before starting the system, remove the caps and add water or antifreeze if necessary to completely
ll the pots and cold legs. Air trapped in the lines will produce errors in differential pressure measurements.
WARNING: EXPLOSION RISK. Housing temperature must not exceed 70 degC (158 degF). Excessive tem-
peratures, which could result from ambient conditions combined with radiated and conductive heat from
!
the process, could cause the internal lithium battery to ignite or explode.
Installation Procedure—Remote Mount to Orice Meter or Cone Meter

installed in accordance with applicable standards and local wiring practices. Carefully review
!
Hazardous Area Precautions, page 27, to determine specic installation requirements (cable glands, con-
duit seals, signal cable, RTD, etc.).
IMPORTANT When measuring steam, process connections must be designed to eliminate air pockets. This is
achieved by making sure all tubing in the cold legs slopes upward. A bottom-port MVT and block
manifold (shown in Figure 2.12) is recommended to help prevent air bubbles from being
trapped in the sensor.
1. Verify that the meter is properly installed in the ow line (per manufacturer’s instructions).
2. Mount the Scanner 3100 to a 2-in. pipe or to a at, vertical surface using bolts and the mounting holes in the enclosure. A horizontal pipe is recommended, as additional hardware may be required for a vertical pipe mount to provide
clearance for the manifold block.
44
Page 45
Scanner 3100 EFM Section 2
3. Mount a set of pipe tees (which serve as condensate pots) typically on either side of the Scanner 3100 at an elevation
above the process connections of the Scanner 3100 MVT (for proper drainage). They should be a considerable distance (see Best Practices, page 42) from the sensor ports, but as close as possible to the pressure taps on the meter.
4. Install a pipe cap or a blowdown valve that is rated for steam service at the top of each pipe tee. A blowdown valve
is recommended when the steam passing through the meter is known to be dirty.
5. Install tubing and ttings to connect the high-pressure and low-pressure taps of the DP meter to the pipe tees. This
section is typically referred to as the hot legs of the installation, as this section of tubing encounters steam at its
highest temperature. Install a shut-off valve near the high and low ports of the DP meter. Use a suitable compound or
tape on all threaded process connections.
6. Route any additional inputs/outputs or COM connections, etc. through the conduit opening in the side of the Scanner
3100. For hazardous areas, review Hazardous Area Precautions, page 27.
Note To prevent ttings from turning and/or to avoid putting tension on stainless steel tubing, use a backup wrench to
attach stainless steel tubing to shut-off valves or sensor ports.
CAUTION Whenever possible, locate the hot legs of a steam installation behind the Scanner 3100 safely out
of the operator’s normal reach. This will help prevent accidental burns.
7. Install tubing to connect the high-pressure and low-pressure process connections of the block manifold to the pipe
tees installed in step 3. This tubing section is typically referred to as the cold legs of the installation, since it is lled
with water.
8. To eliminate air bubbles, ll the cold legs with water or other ll uid from the lowest point in the system, typically
the MVT, using the following steps:
a. Open the blowdown valve or remove the lling plug from one of the pipe tees/condensate pots.
b. Open the equalizer and bypass/block valves on the block manifold. Ensure the vent valve is closed.
c. Remove the corresponding (high pressure or low pressure) vent screw from the side of the MVT and insert a
tting to allow connection of a hand pump or funnel. If a funnel is used, attach a length of Tygon tubing that is
long enough to elevate the funnel well above the condensate pot to force the uid up the legs.
d. Connect a hand pump or funnel to the tting.
e. Pour ll liquid into the funnel or pump it into the cold leg, tapping the cold leg occasionally to dislodge any
bubbles.
f. Observe the pipe tee/condensate pot and stop pouring when the ll liquid is visible at the top and no air bubbles
can be seen.
g. Remove the tting from the vent of the MVT and quickly replace the vent screw and tighten.
h. Close the blowdown valve or replace the lling plug from one of the pipe tees/condensate pots.
i. Repeat steps a through h for the other cold leg.
9. To eliminate an offset of the differential pressure reading, open the equalizer valves on the block manifold, remove
the caps from the seal pots, and adjust either seal pot vertically to bring the water levels to the exact same elevation.
10. Perform a manifold leak test as described on page 51.
11. Verify the zero offset, if required (and other calibration points, if desired). See the Scanner 3100 Web Interface User
Manual for complete instructions. See also Zero Offset (Static Pressure or Differential Pressure), page 51, Static
Pressure Calibration and Verication, page 52, and Differential Pressure Calibration and Verication, page 53.
IMPORTANT Do not put the Scanner into operation until the valves are positioned properly so that pressure is
supplied to both sides of the MVT. For instructions on proper valve positions, see
Placing the Scanner into Operation, page 54.

Measuring Liquid via a Differential Pressure Meter
Best Practices
To ensure measurement accuracy, ensure that the meter run complies with the following AGA 3 and ISO 5167 guidelines, as applicable:
• Do not place unit near vents or bleed holes that discharge corrosive vapors or gases.
• Consider the orientation of the meter run when determining the best position for mounting the Scanner.
– If the Scanner 3100 is mounted to a horizontal pipeline, make sure process connections are horizontal with
the pipeline, or sloped downwards towards the Scanner. Mount the Scanner 3100 below the pressure taps at
the pipe. Use the side (upper) ports as process connections and the bottom ports for draining and lling the
differential pressure housings.
– If the Scanner 3100 is mounted to a vertical pipeline, install the sensor below the differential pressure source
connections. Slope all tubing downward at least 1 in./LF to avoid gas entrapment.
• Mount the Scanner 3100 as near level as possible such that the operator has a clear view of the LCD, and can access
the keypad easily when the enclosure cover is removed. The location should be as free from vibration as possible.
• Make sure the high port of the sensor (marked “H”) is connected to the upstream side of the meter run.
• Pipe diameters (D) should be between 2 in. (50 mm) and 39 in. (1000 mm) per ISO 5167; or greater than 2 in. (50
mm) per AGA 3.
• Pipe Reynolds numbers must be above 5000. Avoid high-viscosity liquids (greater than 15 cP).
• d (orice diameter) must be greater than or equal to 0.45 in. (11.5 mm).
• Orice β (diameter ratio) must be greater than or equal to 0.1 and less than or equal to 0.75.
• Gauge lines should be of uniform internal diameter and constructed of material compatible with the uid being
measured. For most applications, the bore should be no smaller than 1/4 in. (6 mm) and preferably, 3/8 in. (10
mm) in diameter. The internal diameter should not exceed 1 in. (25 mm). If high-temperature uids are likely to be
encountered, make sure the measuring tube used is rated for the anticipated temperature range.
• If there is possibility of freezing, the gauge lines can be lled with a suitable seal liquid. The seal liquid should be
somewhat denser than the process uid, should not dissolve in it, should have a sufciently low freezing point, and
should be non-toxic. Alternatively, heat tracing can be used.
• Gauge line length should be minimized to help prevent pulsation-induced errors.
• Gauge lines should slope upward to the meter at a minimum of 1 in./ft.
• If gauge lines must slope in more than one direction, do not allow more than one bend and install a gas trap.
• Gauge lines should be supported to prevent sag and vibration.
• Where pulsation is anticipated, full-port manifold valves with a nominal internal diameter consistent with the gauge
lines are recommended.
If the Scanner 3100 is mounted to a cone meter, consider the following guidelines in addition to the best practices listed
above.
• Position the cone meter so that there are 0 to 5 diameters of straight pipe upstream of the meter and 0 to 3 diameters
of straight pipe downstream of the meter.
• Install the meter so that the static pressure tap is upstream of the differential pressure tap. The high side of the
integral Scanner 3100 sensor must also be situated upstream.
• Install shutoff valves directly on the pressure taps. Choose a shutoff valve that is rated for the ambient temperatures
of the location and the operating pressure of the pipe in which it will be installed, and for use with dangerous or
corrosive uids or gases, if applicable. The valves must not affect the transmission of the differential pressure signal.

Direct Mount to Orice Meter or Cone Meter
A Scanner 3100 can be mounted directly to an orice meter or cone meter for liquid measurement using a side-port
MVT, a block manifold and two football ange adapters (Figure 2.13, page 48). The setup of the meter run and plumbing congurations can vary widely, depending upon the challenges existing on location.
CAUTION When measuring liquid with a direct-mount Scanner 3100, process connections must be parallel to
the horizontal center line of the meter, or below the center line to eliminate air pockets.
1. Verify that the meter is properly installed in the ow line (per manufacturer’s instructions).
2. Screw a football ange adapter onto each meter pressure tap using pipe tape or pipe dope to seal the threads.
3. Align the bolt holes in the Scanner 3100 MVT and manifold, and install bolts to mate these components to the foot-
ball anges, using O-rings as appropriate. Torque the bolts to the manufacturer’s specication.
4. Route any additional inputs/outputs, communications connections, etc. through a conduit opening in the top of the
Scanner 3100. For hazardous areas, review Hazardous Area Precautions, page 27.
5. Verify that all manifold valves are closed and ll the meter with process uid.
6. Loosen one of the vent screws in the side of the MVT.
7. Open the equalizer valves and the vent valve on the manifold.
8. Slowly open one of the bypass/block valves on the manifold. Process uid should immediately spurt from the MVT
vent.
9. When air bubbles are no longer visible around the MVT vent, tighten the MVT vent screw.
10. Loosen the other vent screw in the side of the MVT, and repeat steps 7 through 9.
11. Perform a manifold leak test as described in Performing a Manifold Leak Test, page 51.
12. Verify the zero offset (if required) and other calibration points (if desired). See the Scanner 3100 Web Interface User
Manual for complete instructions. See also Zero Offset (Static Pressure or Differential Pressure), page 51, Differ-
ential Pressure Calibration and Verication, page 53, and Static Pressure Calibration and Verication, page 52.

a uid that is safe for the environment and stable when depressurized.
Important If the process uid does not present an environmental risk and is stable when depressurized, it
may be used to bleed air from the lines. If the process uid can contaminate the environment or is
highly volatile when depressurized as with liqueed gases, a different seal uid should be used to
ll the legs. An ideal seal uid is one that does not dissolve in the process uid.

linear or multipoint calibration factor, the instrument performs the required compensation calculations based on the RTD
and/or pressure inputs.
For optimum performance, ensure that the turbine and Scanner 3100 installation complies with the industry recommendations listed below:
• Install the turbine owmeter in the meter run such that there are at least 10 nominal diameters of straight pipe
upstream and 5 nominal diameters of straight pipe downstream of the meter. Both inlet and outlet pipe should be of
the same nominal size as the meter.
• Straightening vanes are recommended for eliminating swirl conditions. If used, they should be installed 5 diameters
of straight pipe upstream of the meter. If a pressure transducer is installed, it is recommended that it be placed
upstream of the ow straightener.

Performing a Manifold Leak Test
A manifold leak test is recommended prior to operating any differential pressure meter into service. Check the manifold
for leaks as follows:
1. Verify that the instrument is approximately level and is properly connected to the pressure source.
2. Make sure the vent valve in the manifold is closed. (The bypass/block valves should be open.)
3. Close both bypass/block valves on the manifold to isolate pressure between the block valve and the MVT (Figure
2.15).
4. Open both equalizer valves to distribute pressure throughout.
5. Monitor the pressure readout and watch for a steady decrease in pressure.
6. If desired, spray all connections and valves with soapy water and observe for bubbling to detect the location of any
leak(s). If leakage is indicated,
a. Depressurize the system by opening both bypass/block valves.
b. Check all manifold and piping joints.
c. Tighten connections and/or replace seals as necessary.
d. Repeat steps 3 through 6 to retest the manifold for leaks.
7. When the manifold is determined to be free of leaks, verify the condition of the equalizing valves as follows.
a. Close both equalizing valves and open the vent.
b. Monitor the differential pressure reading for any change.
8. Repair or replace the manifold as required if the differential pressure varies.

Zero Offset (Static Pressure or Differential Pressure)
The static pressure input for the Scanner 3100 is zeroed at the factory before shipment. However, changes in temperature
and atmospheric pressure can cause the static pressure and differential pressure readings to vary. The inputs can be easily
zeroed in the eld prior to putting the Scanner 3100 into service, if necessary.
To zero the static pressure or differential pressure:
1. Close the bypass valves to isolate the pressure below the manifold (Figure 2.16, page 52).
2. Open the equalizer and vent valves.
3. Connect to the Scanner 3100 via the web interface.
4. Navigate to the Local I/O>DP:Diff Pres or Local I/O>SP:Stat Pres screen, click the Zero Offset tab, and click the
Modify button. You will be prompted to enter the Maintenance mode. See the Scanner 3100 Web Interface User
Manual for complete instructions.
5. Click the “Applied/As Left” eld, enter 0.0, and wait for the reading to be acquired.
6. Click Accept to exit the dialog. The measured zero offset will be displayed on the screen.

Static Pressure Calibration and Verication
Note The pressure range stamped on the MVT is expressed as psia (absolute). However, Scanner 3100 pressure
inputs are recalibrated as psig (gauge) at the factory before the device is shipped. Therefore, default pressure
readings displayed on the LCD and in the web interface are in terms of psig.
The static pressure and differential pressure inputs are calibrated and veried before the Scanner 3100 leaves the factory,
and recalibration in the eld may or may not be required. To comply with API standards for verication, “as found” readings should be recorded at approximately 0, 50, and 100 percent of the operating pressure range, increasing, and at 80, 20
and 0 percent of the operating pressure range, decreasing. For example, the static pressure measurements of a 1500-psi
sensor should be veried at 0 psi, 750 psi, and 1500 psi, then at 1200 psi, 300 psi, and 0 psi.
WARNING: Do not subject the Scanner 3100 to unnecessary shock or over-range pressure during mainte-
!
nance operations.
To calibrate the static pressure:
1. Close the bypass valves to isolate the pressure below the manifold (Figure 2.17, page 53).
2. Open the equalizer valves and vent valve to purge the lines.
3. Close the vent valve.
4. Connect a static pressure simulator to either side of the manifold.
5. Connect to the Scanner 3100 via the web interface.
6. Navigate to the Local I/O>SP:Stat Pres screen, click the Calibration tab, and click the Modify button. You will
be prompted to enter the Maintenance mode. See the Scanner 3100 Web Interface User Manual for complete
instructions.
7. Click the “Applied/As Left” eld, enter a known pressure.
8. Apply the same pressure to the MVT using the simulator and wait for the reading to be acquired.
9. Click Accept to accept the reading and exit the dialog. The pressure read by the simulator will be displayed in the
As Found eld and the calculated error between the pressure applied and the pressure read will appear beside it.
10. Repeat steps 7 through 9 to enter multiple calibration points.
11. When all calibration points have been entered, click Save to apply the new calibration settings.
12. Exit the Maintenance mode.

Power Supply Wiring
Internal Power Supply
Cameron’s 7.2 V lithium battery packs provide reliable backup power when used with an external primary power supply.
The Scanner 3100 supports up to two battery packs simultaneously. The battery compartment is located below the display/keypad assembly and is readily accessible when the front cover is removed from the enclosure.
WARNING: EXPLOSION RISK. Housing temperature must not exceed 70 degC (158 degF). Excessive tem-
!
peratures, which could result from ambient conditions combined with radiated and conductive heat from
the process, could cause the internal lithium battery to ignite or explode.
To determine which battery pack to change, look at the battery life indicator on the device display. See Status Indicators
(Glyphs), page 79 and Table 5.1—Device Status Glyph Denitions, page 80 for additional information.
To install a battery pack,
1. Insert the pack so that the cable end of the battery faces the back of the compartment.
2. Wrap the loose end of the cable toward the front of the compartment so that the connector is visible with the pack
installed.
3. Locate the two receptacles on the back of the display board assembly (Figure 3.3).
4. Taking note of pin positions on the cable receptacle, slide the battery cable connector securely onto the pins of the
receptacle nearest the battery pack.
Note Proceed carefully when connecting the battery packs to the plastic receptacles to avoid damaging the connector
or bending pins. Using a pair of needle-nose pliers to grasp the plastic battery cable connector may aid in aligning the connector and receptacle pins when connecting and disconnecting battery packs.
5. Repeat steps 1 through 4 to install the second battery pack.

Battery Life
Although external power is recommended for continuous use, the dual battery packs will autonomously power the Scanner 3100 for an estimated 2 to 3 weeks under a base load (no analog inputs, digital outputs, or Ethernet communication).
57
Page 58
Section 3 Scanner 3100 EFM
Should the primary power supply fail, take the following precautions to maximize battery life:
• Ensure calculation frequency is no greater than once per minute.
• Ensure logging frequency (interval) is no greater than once per hour.
• Ensure download frequency is no greater than once per month.
• Avoid operating at extremely cold temperatures.
• Avoid the use of digital outputs (pulse or alarm).
• Avoid the use of analog inputs.
• Avoid the use of the Ethernet port (web interface access).
• Avoid powering an external transmitter with the Scanner 3100.
External Power Supply
The Scanner 3100 can be connected to a remote DC power supply (Figure 3.4). The power supply and cable must be capable of supplying 9 to 30 VDC at 150 mA minimum (9 to 24 VDC at 150 mA for installations in Mexico).
The external power supply used with CSA-approved units must be an approved SELV source, insulated from the AC
main by double/reinforced insulation per CSA C22.2, No. 61010-1-04/UL 61010-1, 2nd Edition.
ATEX-approved devices should be powered with an external SELV power supply (Um = 30 VDC) and an internal 7.8 V
battery pack as backup, per ATEX Certicate Number Sira 15ATEX 1122X.
Caution All eld wiring must conform to the National Electrical Code, NFPA 70, Article 501-4(b) for installa-
tions within the United States or as specied in Section 18-156 of the Canadian Electrical Code for
installations within Canada. Local wiring ordinances may also apply. All eld wiring must have a
wire range of 22 to 14 AWG and terminal block screws must be tightened to a minimum torque of 5
to 7 in-lb. to secure the wiring within the terminal block. Only personnel who are experienced with
eld wiring should perform these procedures.
Important In all applications using an external power supply, a switch or circuit breaker must be included in
the safe area within easy reach of the operator. The switch or circuit breaker must be marked as
the “disconnect” for the safe area external DC power supply.

Analog Inputs
The analog inputs (Figure 3.7), which can be congured for a 0 to 5 V, 1 to 5 V, 0 to 20 mA or 4 to 20 mA signal, can
be used to receive readings from a pressure or temperature transmitter for use in any ow run. Alternatively, they can be
used to log measurements from any device with a 0 to 5 V, 1 to 5 V, 0 to 20 mA or 4 to 20 mA output. An on-board resistor is automatically enabled when a current input is congured in the Scanner 3100 web interface. Therefore, no external
resistor is required for use with a current input.
The Scanner 3100 provides approximately 10 VDC at 20 mA for powering a 0 to 5 V or 1 to 5 V transmitter. It is not
suitable for powering a 4 to 20 mA transmitter. For reduced power consumption, disable analog inputs in the Scanner

The 4 to 20 mA output (Figure 3.12) provides a linear current output that can be congured to represent any parameter
in the holding registers using the Scanner 3100 web interface. This output requires a two-conductor cable connected to
a 9 to 30 VDC power supply (voltage required is dependent on loop resistance) and a current readout device located in
the remote location. The analog outputs are electrically isolated from each other and from the main electronics. See the

DIO 1 through DIO 4 are isolated and rated for a maximum of 60 mA at 30 VDC. Maximum frequency is 50 Hz. Wire as
shown in Figure 3.13, page 64 (top diagram). Because the circuit is isolated, it can be used with any other feature on
the Scanner 3100. A two-conductor cable from the Scanner 3100 to the remote location is required.
DIO 5 and DIO 6 are designed for handling signicantly higher currents and can be used to control power to another device. Wire as shown in Figure 3.13, page 64 (bottom diagram). These terminals are rated for a maximum of 500 mA at
30 VDC. Maximum frequency is 50 Hz.

Communications
RS-485 Communications
The Scanner 3100 supports digital serial communications using EIA-RS-485 hardware with Modicon Modbus protocol.
RS-485 communications are supported by three ports with a baud range of 300 to 115.2K. Ports 1, 2, and 3 can be used
simultaneously, if desired, and all three ports are protected from high-voltage transients. The circuit can be terminated by
enabling an internal termination resistor in the web interface. See the Scanner 3100 Web Interface User Manual for details. Wire as shown in Figure 3.14, page 65.
Ports 1 and 2 (shown at left) are designed for use with low-power peripherals such as radios, gas chromatographs, other
wired Modbus devices, and wired Scanner slave devices, and are always enabled. If a large number of slave devices are
to be connected to a Scanner 3100 network via a serial port, more than one communication port may be required, depending on archive periods and baud rates desired.
Port 3 (shown at right) supports both RS-485 and RS-232 communications and may be preferred for continuous, highspeed communications. Port 3 is disabled by default, and must be enabled before use. The mode (RS-485 or RS-232) is
automatically detected by the hardware.
Note Not all RS-485 devices, including converters, identify A and B terms consistently. If communications are not
established, switch the wires.

JavaScript in the 5 most commonly used web browsers, see http://www.enable-javascript.com/.
Important Before attempting to connect to the Scanner 3100, check with your Information Technology (IT)
department to determine the best method of connection, review relevant company policies, and
obtain permission before attempting to add the device to a corporate network infrastructure.
IP Address Options
The Scanner 3100 accommodates both dynamic and static IP addresses.
Dynamic IP is considered the least restrictive means of supporting communications with the Scanner, and is often preferred by corporations with extensive IP needs. However, you should be aware that dynamic IP addresses are subject to
change over time (the frequency of such changes is controlled by corporate network settings). If the Scanner 3100 device
is to be installed in a remote location, a dynamic IP address may not be the most reliable choice.
Static IP addresses are unchanging, which helps protect user access to the device but restricts the address from being
used with any other device. A static IP address may be a consideration if you must access the device from a great distance and do not have a local contact near the device who can verify the IP address from the device display.
Note Static IP addresses can be disabled during rmware upgrades, requiring onsite assistance to restore the static IP
address.
Dynamic IP is recommended for initial setup of the device. Once communication with the device is achieved, a static IP
address can be assigned, if applicable. Basic instructions for changing an IP address are provided in the Scanner 3100
Web Interface User Manual linked to the web interface. step-by-step instructions may vary with web utilities and computer operating systems. If you are unfamiliar with this process, seek assistance from an IT professional.
Important The following instructions will help guide you through an initial connection to the Scanner 3100
using the Scanner’s dynamic IP address. If a static IP address is required for ongoing Scanner
communications, the IP can be recongured in the web interface after this initial connection. See
the static IP conguration instructions in the Scanner 3100 Web Interface User Manual for details.

Connection Options
A computer can be connected to a Scanner 3100 using either of two methods:
• Direct (1 to 1) Connection (Ethernet Only). This method is recommended only if you have experience changing
Windows settings and have the administrative rights to assign a static IP address to your computer.
• Standard Connection (Ethernet and WiFi). This method requires no changes to computer settings and is typically
the easiest connection method for novice users. Three different types of connections are supported by the Scanner
3100:
– Add the Scanner 3100 to an existing corporate network (contact your IT professional for assistance)
– Create an ad hoc network using a wireless router (for locations without an external power supply, Cameron
recommends the use of a portable router)

The IP address used to connect with a Scanner 3100 via the web interface is displayed at the top of the LCD. The IP address is assigned when a user connects to the device for the rst time using a computer or other browser-enabled device.
If no address appears in the display, check for a problem with the Ethernet connection.
Status Indicators (Glyphs)
When power is applied to the device, a row of pictorial status indicators or “glyphs” appears in the top right corner of the
LCD. You can use these glyphs to quickly assess the status of the LCD display, wireless connectivity, power connectivity, and battery capacity once you become acquainted with the symbols and their meanings (Figure 5.1 and Table 5.1—
Device Status Glyph Denitions, page 80).
Figure 5.1—LCD display components
Additionally, glyphs indicating the parameter status appear to the left of the parameter reading. You can use these glyphs
to quickly identify the status of a parameter (fail, locked, high- or low-system alarm, etc.) See Table 5.2—Parameter Sta-
tus Glyph Denitions, page 81 for more information about the parameter status glyphs.

Keypad Use. This glyph depicts the four keys positioned on either side of the LCD. Pressing a key
on the keypad causes the corresponding key in the glyph to appear lled, verifying that the key is
actuated.
Device Boot-up Failure. The illumination of all four keys in the keypad glyph when no keys are
depressed signals a boot failure. Should this occur, the LEP and UIC rmware versions will appear as
“0.000” in the web interface (Device menu), and the communication ports and turbine inputs will not
function properly.
To rule out a hardware failure:
1. Remove all power sources and unplug power at the terminal block.
2. Let the device sit idle for at least 10 seconds.
3. Check the power supply to ensure it complies with the Scanner’s external power supply rating.
4. Restore power and check the keypad glyph. If the four quadrants are still illuminated, contact
Cameron for assistance.

Battery Status. These numbered glyphs represent the Scanner 3100’s two lithium battery packs. The
left-most indicator represents the battery on the left as you face the display. Each glyph provides two
indications.
Battery Capacity The tall battery shape indicates battery capacity. A lled “battery pack” (black
on a light gray background) indicates full capacity. An empty “battery pack”
indicates a nearly depleted battery pack or none installed. Battery replacement
is recommended when the indicator shows capacity to be 50% or less. Battery
levels typically remain high (full) for the majority of a battery’s life and then
deplete quickly near the end of the battery’s life.
Battery State
(In Use or Not in
Use)
A lled block under the number indicates the battery is in use. One or both
batteries may be in use at any given time. When external power is available,
neither battery block should appear lled. If a mostly depleted battery is shown
to be in use when you are ready to replace it, you may proceed without concern.
The Scanner 3100 will automatically switch to the remaining battery pack when
one pack is disconnected from the device. To avoid interrupting operations: If
both batteries are nearly depleted, connect an external power source before
disconnecting the battery pack(s) for replacement. If external power is not
available and at least one installed battery pack has the capacity to power the
device momentarily, disconnect and replace the fully depleted pack before
disconnecting and replacing the second pack.

Section 6—Scanner 3100 EFM Maintenance
The Scanner 3100 is engineered to provide years of dependable service with minimal maintenance. Batteries require periodic replacement, and battery life depends on (1) whether battery power is the primary or secondary power source, (2)
the conguration settings of the Scanner 3100, and (3) ambient temperature conditions.
All conguration settings are stored in nonvolatile memory; therefore, conguration settings will not be lost in the event
of power failure.
WARNING: Before servicing the Scanner 3100, disconnect all power sources/signal sources or verify that
!
the atmosphere is free of hazardous gases. Do not remove the cover while circuits are alive. The Scanner
3100 poses no hazard when opened in a safe area.
Lithium Battery Pack Replacement
Two integral battery packs provide backup power for the Scanner 3100 when external power is present, and can sustain
the device for short periods as an autonomous power supply. Battery life can vary, depending on the power demands of
the conguration. As an autonomous supply, the dual battery packs have an estimated life of 2 to 3 weeks, assuming the
device is congured with a base load.
A battery capacity indicator in the Scanner 3100 display helps users predict the need for battery replacement. See Table
5.1—Device Status Glyph Denitions, page 80, for details. Battery replacement is recommended when the indicator
shows capacity to be 50% or less. Battery levels typically remain high (full) for the majority of a battery’s life and then
deplete quickly near the end of the battery’s life.
When two packs are installed, a user can replace a spent battery pack without interrupting operations.
WARNING: The lithium battery pack that powers the Scanner 3100 is a sealed unit; however, should a lithi-
!
um battery develop a leak, toxic fumes could escape upon opening the enclosure. Ensure that the instrument is in a well-ventilated area before opening the enclosure to avoid breathing fumes trapped inside the
enclosure. Exercise caution in handling and disposing of spent or damaged battery packs. See additional
information in Lithium Battery Disposal, page A-1.
Replacement Procedure
The stick-style battery packs are installed in a compartment just below the display (Figure 6.1). Battery leads are connected to the Scanner 3100 via two connectors extending from the back side of the display assembly on either side of the
rounded cutout.

Section 6 Scanner 3100 EFM
To replace a Scanner 3100 lithium battery pack,
1. Remove the cover from the enclosure (after securing the area per the warning on the previous page).
Note Proceed carefully when connecting the battery packs to the plastic receptacles to avoid damaging the connector
or bending pins. Using a pair of needle-nose pliers to grasp the plastic battery cable connector may aid in aligning the connector and receptacle pins when connecting and disconnecting battery packs.
2. Disconnect the battery leads of the spent battery from the connector on the back side of the display assembly.
3. Firmly grasp the battery pack and gently pull it forward to remove it from the enclosure.
4. Insert the fresh battery pack so that the battery lead end faces the rear of the battery compartment.
5. Connect the lead to the connector on the back side of the display assembly.
6. Repeat steps 2 through 5 to replace the other battery pack if required. Even if no external power is supplied, operations will continue uninterrupted as long as one battery pack remains connected.
7. Replace the enclosure cover.

Spare Parts and Optional Hardware
The stick-style lithium battery packs, the lithium coin cell battery that controls the real-time clock, and the desiccant
packets are the only consumable parts within the Scanner 3100 that require periodic replacement. If a WiFi communication accessory is in use, fuses may be replaced periodically as well.
Lithium coin cell batteries can last 8 years or longer, depending on operating conditions. Keeping a spare battery on hand
can prevent the loss of the device time and date in the event the coin cell battery fails.

Appendix A—Lithium Battery Information
Lithium Battery Disposal
Once a lithium battery is removed from a device and/or is destined for disposal, it is classied as solid waste under EPA
guidelines. Depleted lithium batteries are also considered to be hazardous waste because they meet the denition of Reactivity, as per 40 CFR 261.23(a)(2), (3) and (5). This document describes how the lithium reacts violently with water,
forms potentially explosive mixtures with water, and when exposed to certain pH conditions, generates toxic cyanide or
sulde gases.
Federal law requires that depleted lithium battery packs be sent to a fully permitted Treatment, Storage and Disposal Facility (TSDF) or to a permitted recycling/reclamation facility.
Important Do not ship lithium battery packs to our factory. Cameron facilities are not permitted recycling/rec-
lamation facilities.
CAUTION Proling and waste characterization procedures must be followed prior to shipping a lithium bat-
tery to a disposal site. It is the shipper’s responsibility to comply with all applicable federal transportation regulations (see below).
Transportation Information
WARNING: The Scanner 3100 contains lithium batteries. The internal component (thionyl chloride) is haz-
!
ardous under the criteria of the Federal OHSA Hazard Communication Standard 29 CFR 1920.1200. Before
shipping a lithium battery or equipment containing a lithium battery, verify that the packaging and labeling conforms with the latest version of all applicable regulations.
The transport of the lithium batteries is regulated by the United Nations, “Model Regulations on Transport of Dangerous
Goods,” (special provisions 188, 230, and 310), latest revision.
Within the United States, the lithium batteries and cells are subject to shipping requirements under Part 49 of the Code of
Federal Regulations (49 CFR, Parts 171, 172, 173, and 175) of the US Hazardous Materials Regulations (HMR), latest

Appendix B—FTP Downloads
FTP downloads provide an alternative to the web interface download process and may be preferred for expediting downloads, particularly if you have no other need to log into the web interface. FTP downloads can be performed with a router
connection to the Scanner, or with a physical Ethernet cable connection between the PC/laptop and the Scanner. The only
piece of information required is the IP address of the Scanner 3100 storing the archive les.
The following steps describe the FTP download process using the Windows FTP Command executable le.
Important Other third-party FTP le managers, such as File Commander, provide a graphical interface. Please
note that the Scanner 3100 currently supports only one FTP session at a time; some software programs require two simultaneous sessions to function properly.
Downloading SDF Files from the Scanner 3100
To download SDF les using Windows FTP Command prompts, perform the following steps:
1. Access the Command Prompt window by clicking the Start button.
2. Type cmd and click Enter.
3. Type ftp <IP address of the Scanner 3100 device> and click Enter.
4. At the prompt, type <your login name> and click Enter.
5. At the prompt, type <your login password> and click Enter.
6. Type cd archives and click Enter to access the parent level of the directory. This directory contains three folders
of SDF les: full, recent, and events.
7. Type cd <file type> (for example, cd full to select the full folder) and click Enter.
8. Type ls or dir to view a list of .sdf les inside the folder. The command “dir” provides additional details about the
les such as archive timestamp and le size.
9. To download an .sdf le, type get <complete filename> c:<location for saving the SDF
file > and click Enter.
10. To download a batch of .sdf les, type bye to exit the connection. The command prompt will display your default
directory. Unlike the single le download process where you can specify the desired location of the download les
as part of the command string, batch downloads require you to establish the intended location before the download
command it issued.
11. If the current directory is not where the SDF les are to be stored, type cd <desired directory path for
storing SDF files> and click Enter.
12. Type cd archives\<file type> (for example, cd archives\full) and click Enter.
13. Type prompt and click Enter.
14. Type m ge t <*.s df > and click Enter. The batch of les should automatically be transferred to the directory path
designated in step 11.
Note FTP clients are prone to timeouts. To restart following a timeout, type open <Scanner IP address>.
Note To move back one level in your directory path, type cd ..
