Connecting with ProLink II or Pocket ProLink Software

3.1 Overview

ProLink II is a Windows-based configuration and management tool for Micro Motion transmitters. It provides complete access to transmitter functions and data. Pocket ProLink is a version of ProLink II that runs on a Pocket PC.

This chapter provides basic information for connecting ProLink II or Pocket ProLink to your transmitter. The following topics and procedures are discussed:

• Requirements (see Section 3.2)

• Configuration upload/download (see Section 3.3)

• Connecting to a Model 1700 or 2700 transmitter (see Section 3.4)

• Connecting to a Model 1500 or 2500 transmitter (see Section 3.5)

Using the Display Using the CommunicatorUsing ProLink IIBefore You Begin

The instructions in this manual assume that users are already familiar with ProLink II or Pocket ProLink software. For more information on using ProLink II, see the ProLink II manual. For more information on using Pocket ProLink, see the Pocket ProLink manual. Instructions in this manual will refer only to ProLink II.

3.2 Requirements

To use ProLink II with a Series 1000 or 2000 transmitter, the following are required:

• ProLink II v2.0 or later for most basic functions

• ProLink II v2.5 or later for access to many advanced functions, such as meter verification

• Signal converter(s), to convert the PC port’s signal to the signal used by the transmitter

- For RS-485 connections, an RS-485 to RS-232 signal converter. The Black Box IC521A-F RS-232 to RS-485 converter is recommended. For computers without serial ports, the Black Box IC138A USB to RS-232 converter can be used in conjunction with the IC521A-F. Both converters are available from Micro Motion.

- For Bell 202 connections, a HART interface. The MACTek Interface (for serial port) or USB HART Interface Model 010031 (for USB) are recommended. Both converters are available from Micro Motion.

• 25-pin to 9-pin adapter (if required by your PC)

Note: If you are using the enhanced core processor and you connect directly to the core processor’s RS-485 terminals (see Figure B-4 or Figure B-14) instead of to the transmitter, ProLink II v2.4 or later is required. This connection type is sometimes used for troubleshooting.

3.3 ProLink II configuration upload/download

ProLink II provides a configuration upload/download function which allows you to save configuration sets to your PC. This allows:

• Easy backup and restore of transmitter configuration

• Easy replication of configuration sets

Micro Motion recommends that all transmitter configurations be downloaded to a PC as soon as the configuration is complete.

To access the configuration upload/download function:

1. Connect ProLink II to your transmitter as described in this chapter.

2. Open the

File menu.

• To save a configuration file to a PC, use the

Load from Xmtr to File option.

• To restore or load a configuration file to a transmitter, use the option.

3.4 Connecting from a PC to a Model 1700 or Model 2700 transmitter

Depending on your transmitter, there are several options for connecting ProLink II to your transmitter. See Table 3-1.

Notes: Service port connections use standard settings, do not require transmitter configuration, and are always available. Therefore, they are easy and convenient. However, service port connections require opening the power supply compartment. Accordingly, service port connections should be used only for temporary connections, and may require extra safety precautions.

Due to the design of HART protocol, connections made using HART protocol are slower than connections that use Modbus protocol. If you use HART protocol, you cannot open more than one ProLink II window at a time.

3.4.1 Connecting to the service port

To connect to the service port, which is located in the non-intrinsically safe power supply compartment (see Figure 3-1):

1. Attach the signal converter to the serial or USB port of your PC, using a 25-pin to 9-pin adapter if required.

2. Open the cover to the wiring compartment.

Opening the wiring compartment in a hazardous area can cause an explosion.

Because the wiring compartment must be open to make this connection, the service port should be used only for temporary connections, for example, for configuration or troubleshooting purposes.

When the transmitter is in an explosive atmosphere, use a different method to connect to your transmitter.

Using the Display Using the CommunicatorUsing ProLink IIBefore You Begin

3. Open the power supply compartment.

Opening the power supply compartment in explosive atmospheres while the power is on can cause an explosion.

Before using the service port to communicate with the transmitter in a hazardous area, make sure the atmosphere is free from explosive gases.

Opening the power supply compartment can expose the operator to electric shock.

To avoid the risk of electric shock, do not touch the power supply wires or terminals while using the service port.

4. Connect the signal converter leads to the service port terminals. See Figure 3-1.

3.5 Connecting from a PC to a Model 1500 or Model 2500 transmitter

ProLink II software can communicate with a Model 1500 or Model 2500 transmitter using:

Poll button in the Connect

• Modbus/RS-485 protocol (see Section 3.5.1

)

- Configurable connection

- SP (service port) standard connection

• A HART/Bell 202 connection (see Section 3.5.2

)

Note: Service port connections use standard settings and do not require transmitter configuration. Therefore, they are easy and convenient. However, service port connections can be established only during a 10-second interval after power-up. See Step 5 in the following section.

Note: Due to the design of HART protocol, connections made using HART protocol are slower than connections that use Modbus protocol. If you use HART protocol, you cannot open more than one ProLink II window at a time.

3.5.1 Connecting to the RS-485 terminals or an RS-485 network

To connect a PC to the RS-485 terminals or an RS-485 network:

1. Attach the signal converter to the serial or USB port of your PC, using a 25-pin to 9-pin adapter if required.

2. To connect to the RS-485 terminals, connect the signal converter leads to terminals 33 and 34. See Figure 3-7.

3. To connect to an RS-485 network, connect the signal converter leads to any point in the network. See Figure 3-8.

4. For long-distance communication, or if noise from an external source interferes with the signal, install 120 ohm, 1/2 watt resistors in parallel with the output at both ends of the communication segment.

4.1 Overview

The 275 HART Communicator and the 375 Field Communicator are handheld configuration and management tools for HART-compatible devices, including Micro Motion transmitters.

This chapter provides basic information for connecting the 275 HART Communicator or 375 Field Communicator to your transmitter. The following topics and procedures are discussed:

• Communicator models (see Section 4.2)

• Connecting to a transmitter (see Section 4.3)

• Conventions used in this manual (see Section 4.4)

The instructions in this manual assume that users are already familiar with the Communicator and can perform the following tasks:

• Turn on the Communicator

• Navigate the Communicator menus

Using the Display Using the CommunicatorUsing ProLink IIBefore You Begin

4.2 Communicator models

Configuration and Use Manual 29

• Establish communication with HART-compatible devices

• Transmit and receive configuration information between the Communicator and HART-compatible devices

• Use the alpha keys to type information

If you are unable to perform the tasks listed above, consult the Communicator manual before attempting to use the Communicator. The documentation is available on the Micro Motion web site (www.micromotion.com).

Two models of the Communicator – the 275 HART Communicator and the 375 Field Communicator – can be used with Series 1000 and Series 2000 transmitters. However, the 275 HART Communicator does not have device descriptions for all models. In some cases, you can communicate with a transmitter using a device description that provides partial support for the new transmitter’s features.

Some features of the Series 1000 and 2000 transmitters, e.g., gas standard volume flow, are not supported by the device descriptions for either the 275 or 375 Communicator.

Table 4-1 lists the Communicator device descriptions that are available for Series 1000 and 2000 transmitters, and the type of support they provide.

1. If you are connecting to a Model 1700/2700 transmitter, open the cover to the wiring compartment.

Opening the wiring compartment in a hazardous area can cause an explosion.

Because the wiring compartment must be open to make this connection, connections to the mA terminals should be used only for temporary connections, for example, for configuration or troubleshooting purposes.

When the transmitter is in an explosive atmosphere, use a different method to connect to your transmitter.

Flowmeter Startup

5.1 Overview

This chapter describes the procedures you should perform the first time you install the flowmeter. Performing these steps will help verify that all the flowmeter components are installed and wired correctly. It is usually necessary to perform some additional first-time configuration of the transmitter, which is described in Chapter 6.

The following procedures are discussed:

• Applying power to the flowmeter (see Section 5.2) – This step is required.

• Performing a loop test on the transmitter outputs (see Section 5.3) – Although this is not a requirement, performing a loop test is strongly recommended as a way to verify that the flowmeter is properly installed and wired.

• Trimming the mA outputs (see Section 5.4) – This step may be necessary depending on the results of a loop test.

• Zeroing the flowmeter (see Section 5.5) – Zeroing is not generally necessary, but you may need to zero to meet local requirements or if you are instructed to do so by Micro Motion Customer Service.

Required Configuration Optional ConfigurationUsing the TransmitterFlowmeter Startup

This chapter provides only basic information for each procedure. For more details about how to perform each procedure, see the flowcharts for your transmitter and communication tool, provided in the appendices to this manual.

Notes: All ProLink II procedures provided in this chapter assume that your computer is already connected to the transmitter and you have established communication. All ProLink II procedures also assume that you are complying with all applicable safety requirements. See Chapter 3 for more information.

If you are using AMS, the AMS interface will be similar to the ProLink II interface described in this chapter.

All Communicator procedures provided in this chapter assume that you are starting from the “Online” menu. See Chapter 4 for more information.

Configuration and Use Manual 35

Flowmeter Startup

WARNING

5.2 Applying power

Before you apply power to the flowmeter, close and tighten all housing covers.

Operating the flowmeter without covers in place creates electrical hazards that can cause death, injury, or property damage.

Make sure safety barrier partition and covers for the field-wiring, circuit board compartments, electronics module, and housing are all in place before applying power to the transmitter.

Using the service port to communicate with a Model 1700/2700 transmitter in a hazardous area can cause an explosion.

Before using the service port to communicate with the transmitter in a hazardous area, make sure the atmosphere is free from explosive gases.

Turn on the electrical power at the power supply. The flowmeter will automatically perform diagnostic routines. When the flowmeter has completed its power-up sequence:

• For Model 1700/2700 transmitters under normal conditions, the status LED on the display will turn green and begin to flash.

• For Model 1500/2500 transmitters under normal conditions, the status LED will turn green.

• If the status LED exhibits different behavior, an alarm condition is present or transmitter zero is in progress. See Section 7.5.

Note: The flowmeter is ready to receive process fluid approximately one minute after power-up (time varies with models). However, approximately ten minutes are required for the electronics to warm up to equilibrium. During this ten-minute period, the transmitter may exhibit minor instability or inaccuracy.

5.2.1 Communication methods after power-up

For Model 1700/2700 transmitters, all communication methods supported by the transmitter are available immediately after power-up.

For Model 1500/2500 transmitters:

• If you are using the Communicator, or ProLink II with HART/Bell 202, you can establish communication with the transmitter immediately after power-up, using terminals 21 and 22. See Chapter 3 for more information on using ProLink II and Chapter 4 for more information on using the Communicator.

• If you are using ProLink II via the RS-485 physical layer, terminals 33 and 34 are available to establish a connection in service port mode for 10 seconds immediately after power-up. If no service port connection is made during this period, the terminals are automatically reset to the configured Modbus communication parameters. Be sure to set the ProLink II connection parameters appropriately. See Chapter 3.

5.3 Performing a loop test

A loop test is a means to:

• Verify that analog outputs (mA and frequency) are being sent by the transmitter and received accurately by the receiving devices

• Determine whether or not you need to trim the mA outputs

• Select and verify the discrete output voltage

• Read the discrete input

Perform a loop test on all inputs and outputs available on your transmitter. Before performing the loop tests, ensure that your transmitter’s channels are configured for the input/outputs that will be used in your application (see Section 6.3).

You can perform a loop test with the display, with ProLink II, or the Communicator. The general procedure for performing a loop test is shown in Figure 5-1.

Notes: If you are using the display, dots will traverse the top line of the display when an output is fixed, and the status LED will blink yellow.

If the custody transfer application is enabled on the transmitter, it is not possible to perform a loop test of the frequency output, even when in security breach mode.

Required Configuration Optional ConfigurationUsing the TransmitterFlowmeter Startup

If you are using either a Communicator or ProLink II via HART/Bell 202, the HART signal will affect the primary mA reading. While testing the primary mA output, disconnect the Communicator or ProLink II before reading the output, then reconnect the Communicator or ProLink II and resume the loop test after taking the reading.

Milliamp readings do not need to be exact. You will correct differences when you trim the mA output(s).

Yes

Perform the procedure for each mA output at both 4 mA and 20 mA.

5.4 Trimming the milliamp outputs

Trimming the mA output creates a common measurement range between the transmitter and the device that receives the mA output. For example, a transmitter might send a 4 mA signal that the receiving device reports incorrectly as 3.8 mA. If the transmitter output is trimmed correctly, it will send a signal appropriately compensated to ensure that the receiving device actually indicates a 4 mA signal.

You must trim the mA output at both the 4 mA and 20 mA points to ensure appropriate compensation across the entire output range.

Perform a milliamp trim on all mA outputs available on your transmitter. Before performing the trim, ensure that your transmitter’s channels are configured for the input/outputs that will be used in your application (see Section 6.3).

You can trim the outputs with ProLink II or a Communicator. The general procedure for performing a milliamp trim is shown in Figure 5-2.

Notes: If you are using either a Communicator or ProLink II via HART/Bell 202, the HART signal will affect the primary mA reading. While trimming the primary mA output, disconnect the Communicator or ProLink II before reading the output, then reconnect the Communicator or ProLink II and resume the trim procedure after taking the reading.

Any trimming performed on the output should not exceed ±200 microamps. If more trimming is required, contact Micro Motion customer support.

Flowmeter Startup

CAUTION

5.5 Zeroing the flowmeter

Zeroing the flowmeter establishes the flowmeter’s point of reference when there is no flow. The meter was zeroed at the factory, and should not require a field zero. However, you may wish to perform a field zero to meet local requirements or to confirm the factory zero.

When you zero the flowmeter, you may need to adjust the zero time parameter. Zero time is the amount of time the transmitter takes to determine its zero-flow reference point. The default zero time is 20 seconds.

•A long zero time may produce a more accurate zero reference but is more likely to result in a zero failure. This is due to the increased possibility of noisy flow, which causes incorrect calibration.

•A short zero time is less likely to result in a zero failure but may produce a less accurate zero reference.

For most applications, the default zero time is appropriate.

Note: In some menus, a convergence limit parameter is displayed. Micro Motion recommends that you use the default value for convergence limit.

Note: Do not zero the flowmeter if a high severity alarm is active. Correct the problem, then zero the flowmeter. You may zero the flowmeter if a low severity alarm is active. See Section 7.5 for information on viewing transmitter status and alarms.

If the zero procedure fails, see Section 12.6 for troubleshooting information. Additionally, if you have the enhanced core processor:

• You can restore the factory zero. This procedure returns the zero value to the value obtained at the factory. The factory zero can be restored with ProLink II or the display (if the transmitter has a display).

• If you are using ProLink II to zero the flowmeter, you can also restore the prior zero immediately after zeroing (e.g., an “undo” function), as long as you have not closed the Calibration window or disconnected from the transmitter. Once you have closed the Calibration window or disconnected from the transmitter, you can no longer restore the prior zero.

5.5.1 Preparing for zero

To prepare for the zero procedure:

Required Configuration Optional ConfigurationUsing the TransmitterFlowmeter Startup

1. Apply power to the flowmeter. Allow the flowmeter to warm up for approximately 20 minutes.

2. Run the process fluid through the sensor until the sensor temperature reaches the normal process operating temperature.

3. Close the shutoff valve downstream from the sensor.

4. Ensure that the sensor is completely filled with fluid.

5. Ensure that the process flow has completely stopped.

If fluid is flowing through the sensor, the sensor zero calibration may be inaccurate, resulting in inaccurate process measurement.

To improve the sensor zero calibration and measurement accuracy, ensure that process flow through the sensor has completely stopped.

Default values and ranges for the parameters described in this chapter are provided in Appendix A. Optional configuration procedures are described in Chapter 8.

If you are using AMS, the AMS interface will be similar to the ProLink II interface described in this chapter.

All Communicator procedures provided in this chapter assume that you are starting from the “Online” menu. See Chapter 4 for more information.

6.2 Characterizing the flowmeter

Characterizing the flowmeter adjusts the transmitter to compensate for the unique traits of the sensor it is paired with. The characterization parameters, or calibration parameters, describe the sensor’s sensitivity to flow, density, and temperature.

6.2.1 When to characterize

If the transmitter, core processor, and sensor were ordered together, then the flowmeter has already been characterized. You need to characterize the flowmeter only if the core processor and sensor are being paired together for the first time.

6.2.2 Characterization parameters

The characterization parameters that must be configured depend on your flowmeter’s sensor type: “T-Series” or “Other” (also referred to as “Straight Tube” and “Curved Tube,” respectively), as listed in Table 6-1. The “Other” category includes all Micro Motion sensors except T-Series.

The characterization parameters are provided on the sensor tag. The format of the sensor tag varies depending on your sensor’s date of purchase. See Figures 6-2 and 6-3 for illustrations of newer and older sensor tags.

Density calibration factors

If your sensor tag does not show a D1 or D2 value:

• For D1, enter the Dens A or D1 value from the calibration certificate. This value is the line-condition density of the low-density calibration fluid. Micro Motion uses air.

• For D2, enter the Dens B or D2 value from the calibration certificate. This value is the line-condition density of the high-density calibration fluid. Micro Motion uses water.

If your sensor tag does not show a K1 or K2 value:

• For K1, enter the first 5 digits of the density calibration factor. In the sample tag in Figure 6-2, this value is shown as

12500.

• For K2, enter the second 5 digits of the density calibration factor. In the sample tag in Figure 6-2, this value is shown as

14286.

If your sensor does not show an FD value, contact Micro Motion customer service.

If your sensor tag does not show a DT or TC value, enter the last 3 digits of the density calibration factor. In the sample tag in Figure 6-2, this value is shown as

4.44.

Flow calibration values

Two separate values are used to describe flow calibration: a 6-character FCF value and a 4-character FT value. Both values contain decimal points. During characterization, these are entered as a single 10-character string that includes two decimal points. In ProLink II, this value is called the Flowcal parameter; in the Communicator, it is called the FCF for T-Series sensors, and Flowcal for other sensors.

To obtain the required value:

• For older T-Series sensors, concatenate the FCF value and the FT value from the sensor tag, as shown below.

• For newer T-Series sensors, the 10-character string is represented on the sensor tag as the FCF value. The value should be entered exactly as shown, including the decimal points. No concatenation is required.

• For all other sensors, the 10-character string is represented on the sensor tag as the Flow Cal value. The value should be entered exactly as shown, including the decimal points. No concatenation is required.

6.9 Establishing a meter verification baseline

Note: This procedure applies only if your transmitter is connected to an enhanced core processor and you have ordered the meter verification application. In addition, ProLink II v2.5 or later is required.

Meter verification is a method of establishing that the flowmeter is performing within factory specifications. See Chapter 10 for more information about Smart Meter Verification.

Micro Motion recommends performing metere verification several times over a range of process conditions after the transmitter’s required configuration procedures have been completed. This will establish a baseline for how widely the verification measurement varies under normal circumstances. The range of process conditions should include the expected variations in flow rate, temperature, density, and pressure.

Using the Transmitter

7.1 Overview

This chapter describes how to use the transmitter in everyday operation. The following topics and procedures are discussed:

• Special applications on your transmitter (see Section 7.2)

• Viewing process variables (see Sections 7.4)

• Viewing transmitter status and alarms (see Section 7.5)

• Acknowledging alarms (see Section 7.6)

• Viewing and using the totalizers and inventories (see Section 7.7)

Notes: All ProLink II procedures provided in this section assume that your computer is already connected to the transmitter and you have established communication. All ProLink II procedures also assume that you are complying with all applicable safety requirements. See Chapter 3 for more information.

Required Configuration Optional ConfigurationUsing the TransmitterFlowmeter Startup

If you are using AMS, the AMS interface will be similar to the ProLink II interface described in this chapter.

All Communicator key sequences in this section assume that you are starting from the “Online” menu. See Chapter 4 for more information.

7.2 Special applications

Your transmitter may support one of the following special applications:

• Petroleum measurement (API feature)

• Enhanced density

• Either Smart Meter Verification or the original version of the meter verification application

• Custody transfer

The special application must be enabled at the factory or by a Micro Motion field service engineer.

Configuration of the petroleum measurement application is discussed in Section 8.6. For information on configuring and using the enhanced density application, see the manual entitled Micro Motion Enhanced Density Application: Theory, Configuration, and Use. Smart Meter Verification is discussed in Chapter 10. For information on configuring the custody transfer application, see Chapter 11.

7.3 Recording process variables

Micro Motion suggests that you make a record of the process variables listed below, under normal operating conditions. This will help you recognize when the process variables are unusually high or low, and may help in fine-tuning transmitter configuration.

Record the following process variables:

• Flow rate

• Density

•Temperature

• Tube frequency

• Pickoff voltage

•Drive gain

For information on using this information in troubleshooting, see Section 12.13.

7.4 Viewing process variables

Process variables include measurements such as mass flow rate, volume flow rate, mass total, volume total, temperature, and density.

You can view process variables with the display (Model 1700 and 2700 transmitters only), ProLink II, or the Communicator.

7.4.1 With the display

Process variable values are displayed using either standard decimal notation or exponential notation:

•Values < 100,000,000 are displayed in decimal notation (e.g., 123456.78).

•Values ≥ 100,000,000 are displayed using exponential notation (e.g., 1.000E08).

- If the value is less than the precision configured for that process variable, the value is

displayed as 0 (i.e., there is no exponential notation for fractional numbers).

- If the value is too large to be displayed with the configured precision, the displayed

precision is reduced (i.e., the decimal point is shifted to the right) as required so that the value can be displayed.

See the Configuration and Use Manual Supplement for your transmitter for additional information and instructions on viewing process variables with the display.

7.4.2 With ProLink II

The Process Variables window opens automatically when you first connect to the transmitter. This window displays current values for the standard process variables (mass, volume, density, temperature, external pressure, and external temperature).

To view the standard process variables with ProLink II, if you have closed the Process Variables window, click

7.5.3 Using ProLink II

ProLink II provides two ways to view alarm information:

• Choose independent of configured alarm severity. The alarms are divided into three categories: Critical, Informational, and Operational. To view the indicators in a category, click on the associated tab. A tab is red if one or more status indicators in that category is active. On each tab, currently active alarms are shown by red indicators.

• Choose unacknowledged Fault and Informational alarms. (The transmitter automatically filters out Ignore alarms.) A green indicator means “inactive but unacknowledged” and a red indicator means “active.” Alarms are organized into two categories: High Priority and Low Priority.

Notes: The location of alarms in the Status window is not affected by the configured alarm severity (see Section 8.13.1). Alarms in the Status window are predefined as Critical, Informational, or Operational.

7.7 Using the totalizers and inventories

The totalizers keep track of the total amount of mass or volume measured by the transmitter over a period of time. The totalizers can be viewed, started, stopped, and reset.

The inventories track the same values as the totalizers but can be reset separately. Because the inventories are reset separately, you can keep a running total of mass or volume across multiple totalizer resets.

The transmitter can store totalizer and inventory values up to 2 internal totalizer to go into overflow.

8.4 Configuring standard volume flow measurement for gas

Special functionality is provided for measuring the standard volume flow of gases.

ProLink II is required to access this functionality. Other tools provide only limited support:

• The Communicator cannot be used to configure volume flow meaurement for gas or to select a standard gas volume flow measurement unit. If standard gas volume flow measurement has been configured, the Communicator will display the correct volume flow value, but will display “Unknown Enumerator” for the units label.

• The local display cannot be used to change the volume flow type. However, after the transmitter has been configured for standard gas volume flow measurement, the display can be used to select a standard gas volume flow measurement unit.

Standard gas volume flow and liquid volume flow are mutually exclusive settings. When the Vol Flow Type is set to Std Gas Volume, the units list contains the units that are most frequently used for gas measurement. If Liquid Volume is configured, gas measurement units are not available.

To configure the transmitter to use gas standard volume flow:

Note the following:

• You can create all special measurement units with ProLink II.

• Using the Communicator, you can create special measurement units for mass flow and liquid volume flow, but not for gas standard volume flow.

• You cannot create any special measurement units with the display.

Special measurement units can be viewed normally with the display and with ProLink II. The Communicator will display special measurement units for mass flow and liquid volume flow. For special measurement units for gas standard voume flow, the Communicator will display the correct value but will display “Spcl” for the units label.

8.5.1 About special measurement units

Special measurement units consist of:

• Base unit – A combination of:

- Base mass or base volume unit – A measurement unit that the transmitter already recognizes (e.g.,

kg, m3, l, SCF)

- Base time unit – A unit of time that the transmitter already recognizes (e.g., seconds, days)

• Conversion factor – The number by which the base unit will be divided to convert to the special unit

• Special unit – A non-standard volume flow or mass flow unit of measure that you want to be reported by the transmitter

The preceding terms are related by the following formula:

8.5.2 Special measurement unit procedure

To create a special measurement unit:

1. If necessary, set Volume Flow Type to match the type of special measurement unit you will create.

2. Identify the simplest base volume or mass and base time units for your special mass flow or volume flow unit. For example, to create the special volume flow unit pints per minute, the simplest base units are gallons per minute:

• Base volume unit: gallon

• Base time unit: minute

3. Calculate the conversion factor using the formula below:

Note: 1 gallon per minute = 8 pints per minute

4. Name the new special mass flow or volume flow measurement unit and its corresponding totalizer measurement unit:

• Special volume flow measurement unit name: Pint/min

• Volume totalizer measurement unit name: Pints

Note: Special measurement unit names can be up to 8 characters long (i.e., 8 numbers or letters), but only the first 5 characters appear on the display.

5. To apply the special measurement unit to mass flow or volume flow measurement, select

Special from the list of measurement units (see Section 6.4.1 or 6.4.2).

8.6 Configuring the petroleum measurement application (API feature)

The API parameters determine the values that will be used in API-related calculations. The API parameters are available only if the petroleum measurement application is enabled on your transmitter.

8.6.1 About the petroleum measurement application

The petroleum measurement enables Correction of Temperature on volume of Liquids, or CTL. In other words, some applications that measure liquid volume flow or liquid density are particularly sensitive to temperature factors, and must comply with American Petroleum Institute (API) standards for measurement.

Terms and definitions

The following terms and definitions are relevant to the petroleum measurement application:

• API – American Petroleum Institute

• CTL – Correction of Temperature on volume of Liquids. The CTL value is used to calculate the VCF value

• TEC – Thermal Expansion Coefficient

• VCF – Volume Correction Factor. The correction factor to be applied to volume process variables. VCF can be calculated after CTL is derived

CTL derivation methods

There are two derivation methods for CTL:

• Method 1 is based on observed density and observed temperature.

• Method 2 is based on a user-supplied reference density (or thermal expansion coefficient, in some cases) and observed temperature.

API parameters

The API parameters are listed and defined in Table 8-2.

API reference tables

Reference tables are organized by reference temperature, CTL derivation method, liquid type, and density unit. The table selected here controls all the remaining options.

• Reference temperature:

- If you specify a 5x, 6x, 23x, or 24x table, the default reference temperature is 60

- If you specify a 53x or 54x table, the default reference temperature is 15 °C. However, you

• CTL derivation method:

- If you specify an odd-numbered table (5, 23, or 53), CTL will be derived using method 1

- If you specify an even-numbered table (6, 24, or 54), CTL will be derived using method 2

• The letters A, B, C, or D that are used to terminate table names define the type of liquid that the table is designed for:

- A tables are used with generalized crude and JP4 applications.

- B tables are used with generalized products.

described above.

- C tables are used with liquids with a constant base density or known thermal expansion

coefficient.

- D tables are used with lubricating oils.

• Different tables use different density units:

Temperature data

For the temperature value to be used in CTL calculation, you can use the temperature data from the sensor, or you can poll an external temperature device:

• To use temperature data from the sensor, no action is required.

• To poll an external temperature device, configure polling for temperature as described in Section 9.4. When polling is enabled, the transmitter will automatically use the external temperature value for CTL calculation.

8.7 Configuring cutoffs

Cutoffs are user-defined values below which the transmitter reports a value of zero for the specified process variable. Cutoffs can be set for mass flow, volume flow, or density.

Note: The density cutoff is available only with core processor software v2.0 or above and transmitter software rev3.0 or above.

See Table 8-4 for cutoff default values and related information. See Sections 8.7.1 and 8.7.2 for information on how the cutoffs interact with other transmitter measurements.

Table 8-4 Cutoff default values

Cutoff type Default Comments

Mass flow 0.0 g/s Recommended setting:

• Standard use: 0.5–1.0% of the sensor’s rated maximum flow rate

• Empty-full-empty batching: 2.5% of the sensor’s rated maximum flow rate

Volume flow 0.0 L/s Lower limit: 0

8.7.1 Cutoffs and volume flow

If you are using liquid volume flow units (

Vol F low Ty pe is set to Liquid):

• The density cutoff is applied to the volume flow calculation. Accordingly, if the density drops below its configured cutoff value, the volume flow rate will go to zero.

• The mass flow cutoff is not applied to the volume flow calculation. Even if the mass flow drops below the cutoff, and therefore the mass flow indicators go to zero, the volume flow rate will be calculated from the actual mass flow process variable.

If you are using gas standard volume flow units (

Vol Flow Type is set to Std Gas Volume), neither

the mass flow cutoff nor the density cutoff is applied to the volume flow calculation.

8.7.2 Interaction with the AO cutoffs

Both the primary mA output and the secondary mA output (if it is available on your transmitter) have cutoffs (the AO cutoffs). If the mA outputs are configured for mass flow, volume flow, or gas standard volume flow:

• And the AO cutoff is set to a greater value than the mass, volume, or gas standard volume cutoff, the mA output will report zero flow when the AO cutoff is reached.

• And the AO cutoff is set to a lower value than the mass, volume, or gas standard volume cutoff, when the mass, volume, or gas standard volume cutoff is reached, all outputs representing that process variable will report zero flow.

8.8 Configuring the damping values

A damping value is a period of time, in seconds, over which the process variable value will change to reflect 63% of the change in the actual process. Damping helps the transmitter smooth out small, rapid measurement fluctuations.

• A high damping value makes the output appear to be smoother because the output must change slowly.

• A low damping value makes the output appear to be more erratic because the output changes more quickly.

When you specify a new damping value, it is automatically rounded down to the nearest valid damping value. Flow, density, and temperature have different valid damping values. Valid damping values are listed in Table 8-5.

Before setting the damping values, review Sections 8.8.1 through 8.8.3 for information on how the damping values interact with other transmitter measurements and parameters.

8.8.1 Damping and volume measurement

When configuring damping values, note the following:

• Liquid volume flow is derived from mass and density measurements; therefore, any damping applied to mass flow and density will affect liquid volume measurement.

• Gas standard volume flow is derived from mass flow measurement, but not from density measurement. Therefore, only damping applied to mass flow will affect gas standard volume measurement.

Be sure to set damping values accordingly.

8.8.2 Interaction with the added damping parameter

Both the primary mA output and the secondary mA output (if it is available on your transmitter) have a damping parameter (added damping). If damping is configured for flow, density, or temperature, the same process variable is assigned to an mA output, and added damping is also configured for the mA output, the effect of damping the process variable is calculated first, and the added damping calculation is applied to the result of that calculation.

8.8.3 Interaction with the update rate

Flow and density damping values depend on the configured Update Rate (see Section 8.9). If you change the update rate, the damping values are automatically adjusted. Damping rates for Special are 20% of Normal damping rates. See Table 8-5.

Note: The specific process variable selected for the 100 Hz update rate is not relevant; all damping values are adjusted as described.

8.9 Configuring the update rate

The update rate is the rate at which the transmitter polls the sensor for process data. Update Rate affects the transmitter’s response time to changes in the process.

There are two settings for Update Rate:

• When

If you set the update rate to 100 Hz. Different 100 Hz variables are available, depending on which special applications are installed on your transmitter.

Note: For transmitters with transmitter software rev5.0 running the enhanced density application, the Special update rate is not available.

Normal and Special.

Normal is configured, most process variables are polled at the rate of

20 times per second (20 Hz).

Special is configured, a single, user-specified process variable is

polled 100 times per second (100 Hz). Polling for some process variables and diagnostic/calibration data is dropped (see Section 8.9.1), and the remaining process variables are polled a minimum of 6 times per second (6.25 Hz).

Special, you must also specify which process variable will be polled at

74 Micro Motion Series 1000 and Series 2000 Transmitters

Note: Most users should select the Normal update rate. Use the Special update rate only if required by your application. See Section 8.9.1.

Note: If you change the update rate, the setting for damping is automatically adjusted. See Section 8.8.3.

8.9.1 Effects of Special mode

In Special mode:

• Not all process variables are updated. The process variables listed below are always updated:

- Mass flow

-Volume flow

- Gas standard volume flow

- Density

- Temperature

-Drive gain

- LPO amplitude

- Status (contains Event 1 and Event 2)

- Raw tube frequency

- Mass total

- Volume total

- Gas standard volume total

- API temperature-corrected volume total

- API temperature-corrected density

- API temperature-corrected volume flow

- API batch weighted average temperature

- API batch weighted average density

The process variables listed below are updated only when the petroleum measurement application is not enabled:

- RPO amplitude

-Board temperature

- Core input voltage

- Mass inventory

- Volume inventory

- Gas standard volume inventory

All other process variables are not polled at all. The omitted process variables will remain at the values they held before Special mode was implemented.

• Calibration data is not refreshed.

• Discrete event status is not polled.

• The enhanced density application is not available.

Micro Motion recommends the following:

• Do not use Special mode unless required by your application. Contact Micro Motion before setting Update Rate to Special.

• If Special mode is required, ensure that all required data is being updated.

• Do not perform any calibrations while in Special mode.

• Do not restore the factory zero or prior zero.

• Do not use discrete events (the dual-setpoint event model) while in Special mode. Instead, use Event 1 and Event 2 from the single-setpoint event model. See Section 8.11.

8.10 Configuring the flow direction parameter

The flow direction parameter controls how the transmitter reports flow rate and how flow is added to or subtracted from the totalizers, under conditions of forward flow, reverse flow, or zero flow.

• Forward (positive) flow moves in the direction of the arrow on the sensor.

• Reverse (negative) flow moves in the direction opposite of the arrow on the sensor.

Options for flow direction include:

•Forward

•Reverse

• Absolute Value

• Bidirectional

• Negate Forward

• Negate Bidirectional

For the effect of flow direction on mA outputs:

• See Figure 8-1 if the 4 mA value of the mA output is set to 0.

• See Figure 8-2 if the 4 mA value of the mA output is set to a negative value.

For a discussion of these figures, see the examples following the figures.

For the effect of flow direction on frequency outputs, totalizers, and flow values reported via digital communication, see Table 8-6.

See the Configuration and Use Manual Supplement for your transmitter for information and instructions on configuring events.

8.11.1 Changing event setpoints from the display

For Event 1 or Event 2 from the single-setpoint event model only, the value of Setpoint A can be changed from the display, under the following circumstances:

• Mass total or volume total (gas or liquid) must be assigned to the event.

• Mass total or volume total must be configured as a display variable (see Section 8.14.6).

Then, to reset Setpoint A from the display:

8.12 Configuring slug flow limits and duration

Slugs – gas in a liquid process or liquid in a gas process – occasionally appear in some applications. The presence of slugs can significantly affect the process density reading. The slug flow parameters can help the transmitter suppress extreme changes in process variables, and can also be used to identify process conditions that require correction.

Slug flow parameters are as follows:

• Low slug flow limit – the point below which a condition of slug flow will exist. Typically, this is the lowest density point in your process’s normal density range. Default value is 0.0 g/cm

range is 0.0–10.0 g/cm

• High slug flow limit – the point above which a condition of slug flow will exist. Typically, this is the highest density point in your process’s normal density range. Default value is 5.0 g/cm

range is 0.0–10.0 g/cm

• Slug flow duration – the number of seconds the transmitter waits for a slug flow condition (outside the slug flow limits) to return to normal (inside the slug flow limits). Default value is

0.0 seconds; range is 0.0–60.0 seconds

If the transmitter detects slug flow:

• A slug flow alarm is posted immediately.

Scroll to the volume total

;

80 Micro Motion Series 1000 and Series 2000 Transmitters

• During the slug duration period, the transmitter holds the mass flow rate at the last measured pre-slug value, independent of the mass flow rate measured by the sensor. All outputs that report mass flow rate and all internal calculations that include mass flow rate will use this value.

• If slugs are still present after the slug duration period expires, the transmitter forces the mass flow rate to 0, independent of the mass flow rate measured by the sensor. All outputs that report mass flow rate and all internal calculations that include mass flow rate will use 0.

• When process density returns to a value within the slug flow limits, the slug flow alarm is cleared and the mass flow rate reverts to the actual measured value.

Note: This functionality is not available via the display menus.

Note: The slug flow limits must be entered in g/cm

, even if another unit has been configured for

density. Slug flow duration is entered in seconds.

Note: Raising the low slug flow limit or lowering the high slug flow limit will increase the possibility of slug flow conditions. Conversely, lowering the low slug flow limit or raising the high slug flow limit will decrease the possibility of slug flow conditions.

Note: If slug flow duration is set to 0, the mass flow rate will be forced to 0 as soon as slug flow is detected.

8.13 Configuring fault handling

There are three ways that the transmitter can report faults:

• By setting outputs to their configured fault levels

• By configuring a discrete output to indicate fault status

• By posting an alarm to the active alarm log

Status alarm severity controls which of these methods is used. For some faults only, fault timeout controls when the fault is reported.

8.13.1 Status alarm severity

Status alarms are classified into three levels of severity. The severity level controls transmitter behavior when the alarm condition occurs. See Table 8-7.

Table 8-7 Alarm severity levels

8.13.2 Fault timeout

If a fault is detected, the transmitter always sets the “alarm active” status bit immediately. Fault actions for the transmitter outputs and digital communications may be implemented immediately or may be delayed until the fault timeout expires. During the fault timeout, outputs continue to report their last measured value.

The default fault timeout value is

The fault timeout is not applicable to all faults. See Table 8-8 for information about which faults are affected.

8.14 Configuring the display

If your transmitter has a display, you can enable or disable specific display functions, specify the process variables to be shown on the display, and set a variety of parameters that control display behavior.

8.14.4 Changing the scroll rate

The scroll rate is used to control the speed of scrolling when Auto Scroll is enabled. Scroll Rate defines how long each display variable (see Section 8.14.6) will be shown on the display. The time period is defined in seconds; e.g., if Scroll Rate is set to 10, each display variable will be shown on the display for 10 seconds.

If you are using the Communicator to configure the transmitter, you must enable Auto Scroll before you can configure Scroll Rate (see Section 8.14.3).

8.14.5 Changing the display password

The display password is a numeric code that can contain up to four digits. It is used for both the off-line password and the alarm screen password. See Section 2.4.4 for information on how the two passwords are implemented.

If you are using the Communicator or the display, you must enable either the off-line password or the alarm screen password before you can configure the password (see Section 8.14.3).

Pressure Compensation, Temperature Compensation, and Polling

9.1 Overview

This chapter describes the following procedures:

• Configuring pressure compensation (see Section 9.2)

• Configuring external temperature compensation (see Section 9.3)

• Configuring polling (see Section 9.4)

Note: All ProLink II procedures provided in this section assume that your computer is already connected to the transmitter and you have established communication. All ProLink II procedures also assume that you are complying with all applicable safety requirements. See Chapter 3 for more information.

Note: All Communicator key sequences in this section assume that you are starting from the “Online” menu. See Chapter 4 for more information.

9.2 Pressure compensation

Series 1000/2000 transmitters can compensate for the effect of pressure on the sensor flow tubes. Pressure effect is defined as the change in sensor flow and density sensitivity due to process pressure change away from calibration pressure.

Note: Pressure compensation is an optional procedure. Perform this procedure only if required by your application.

Measurement Performance TroubleshootingCustody TransferCompensation

Configuration and Use Manual 89

9.2.1 Options

There are two ways to configure pressure compensation:

• If the operating pressure is a known static value, you can enter the external pressure in the

software, and not poll a pressure measurement device.

• If the operating pressure varies significantly, you configure the transmitter to poll for an

updated pressure value from an external pressure measurement device. Polling requires HART/Bell 202 communications over the primary mA output.

Note: If you configure a static pressure value, ensure that it is accurate. If you configure polling for pressure, ensure that the pressure measurement device is accurate and reliable.

(1) Setting the pressure measurement unit is optional. (2) See Section 9.4. (3) If previously configured. Polling for temperature is allowed. See

Section 9.4.

9.2.2 Pressure correction factors

When configuring pressure compensation, you must provide the flow calibration pressure – the pressure at which the flowmeter was calibrated (which therefore defines the pressure at which there will be no effect on the calibration factor). Refer to the calibration document shipped with your sensor. If the data is unavailable, use 20 psi.

Two additional pressure correction factors may be configured: one for flow and one for density. These are defined as follows:

• Flow factor – the percent change in the flow rate per psi

• Density factor – the change in fluid density, in g/cm

Not all sensors or applications require pressure correction factors. For the pressure correction values to be used, obtain the pressure effect values from the product data sheet for your sensor, then reverse the signs (e.g., if the flow factor is 0.000004 % per PSI, enter a pressure correction flow factor of –0.000004 % per PSI).

9.2.3 Configuration

To enable and configure pressure compensation:

• With ProLink II, see Figure 9-1.

• With the Communicator, see Figure 9-2.
