1.4 PROFIBUS-PA functionality

The transmitter supports the following methods of configuration and operation:

• Configuration methods:

- Device description (EDD) for use with a PROFIBUS configuration tool such as Siemens Simatic

Process Device Manager (PDM). In this manual, the term “EDD” is used to refer

to this type of configuration.

- Direct read and write of PROFIBUS-PA bus parameters.

• Operation methods:

- GSD file with a PROFIBUS host. The transmitter supports two GSD options— Profile-specific, which is created by PNO, and Manufacturer-specific, which is created by by Micro Motion in order to implement a larger set of function blocks. See Section 2.5 for more information about the two GSD options.

In this manual, the term “host” or “PROFIBUS host” is used to refer to this type of operation.

- Device description (EDD) with PROFIBUS configuration tool (e.g., Simatic PDM). The EDD provides a superset of the operational functionality of the GSD, plus configuration capability.

• Identification and maintenance (I&M) functions:

-I&M 0

-I&M 1

-I&M 2

-PA I&M 0

The transmitter supports both classic and condensed status byte formats.

• Classic mode conforms to the PROFIBUS-PA Profile v3.01, Section 3.7.3.6.

• Condensed mode conforms to the PROFIBUS-PA Specification June 2005 Amendment 2 to the PROFIBUS Profile v3.01, Condensed Status and Diagnostic Messages v1.0.

1.5 Determining version information

Table 1-1 lists the version information you may need to know and describes how to obtain the information. This manual assumes transmitter firmware v3.2 or a later version and ProLink v2.92 with the Build 9827 patch or a later version.

Note: The hardware for transmitters with v2.0 and lower firmware is incompatible with the hardware needed to support v3.0 and later firmware. To upgrade from an earlier firmware version to v3.0 or higher firmware requires hardware replacement.

Startup

2.1 Overview

This chapter describes the procedures you should perform the first time you start the flowmeter. You do not need to use these procedures every time you cycle power to the flowmeter.

The procedures in this section will enable you to:

• Apply power to the flowmeter (Section 2.2)

• Set the node address (Section 2.3)

• Configure the AI block channels (Section 2.4)

• Set the I/O mode of the transmitter (Section 2.5)

• Configure the totalizer block mode (Section 2.6)

• Optional: Configure pressure compensation (Section 2.7)

• Optional: Configure temperature compensation (Section 2.8)

Note: All procedures provided in this chapter assume that you have established communication with the transmitter and that you are complying with all applicable safety requirements. See Appendix C or the documentation for your PROFIBUS host or configuration tool.

2.2 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 all covers are in place before applying power to the transmitter.

Turn on the electrical power at the power supply. The flowmeter will automatically perform diagnostic routines. If the transmitter has a display, the status LED will turn green and begin to flash when the transmitter has finished its startup diagnostics.

Note: If this is the initial startup, or if power has been off long enough to allow components to reach ambient temperature, the flowmeter is ready to receive process fluid approximately one minute after power-up. However, it may take up to ten minutes for the electronics in the flowmeter to reach thermal equilibrium. During this warm-up period, you may observe minor measurement instability or inaccuracy.

2.3 Setting the node address

The factory default setting for the node address is 126. To set the node address:

• With the display, choose

OFF-LINE MAINT > CONFG > ADDRESS PBUS.

• With ProLink II, choose

ProLink > Configuration > Device (Profibus) > Profibus Address.

• With a PROFIBUS host, use the change address function of the host.

2.4 Configuring the analog input function block channels

You can set each of the transmitter’s AI function blocks to measure one transducer block channel. The AI blocks are set at the factory to a default setting that is adequate for most applications, but you can change the assignment of the AI blocks to meet special needs.

The default channel configuration for each block is shown in Table 2-1.

2.5 Setting the I/O mode

The transmitter can function in two different I/O modes: Profile-specific and Manufacturer-specific. The factory default is Manufacturer-specific. The two modes control which function blocks are available for use, and whether the format of the status byte is “classic” or “condensed.” (See Appendix D for more information on the format of the status byte.)

• In Profile-specific mode, the transmitter has the use of three AI blocks and one totalizer block. The status byte output format defaults to classic mode.

• In Manufacturer-specific mode, the transmitter has the use of four AI blocks, four totalizer blocks, and two AO blocks. The status byte output format defaults to condensed mode.

Refer to Table 2-3 for the slot identifications and blocks permitted by each mode. You must select modules exactly as described in Table 2-3, or select an empty module for slots that you do not intend to use. If any modules are left unconfigured, the transmitter will not send data.

• With the display, choose

Figure 2-2 Setting the I/O mode

There are two GSD files that correspond to the two I/O modes. If you are using a PROFIBUS host with GSD files to operate the transmitter, you must use the GSD that corresponds to the I/O mode you have chosen. Table 2-4 lists the GSD file names. Load the correct GSD file into your PROFIBUS host or configuration tool.

2.5.1 Overriding the status byte format

Each I/O mode has a default status byte format – classic or condensed. To override this default:

• With the GSD, set the Condensed Status parameterization bit to either 1 (for condensed status) or 0 (for classic status).

• With the EDD or bus parameters, use the menu flowcharts in Figure 2-3.

Figure 2-3 Status byte format

2.6 Configuring the totalizer block mode

The behavior of the four totalizer function blocks can be configured in two ways:

• Standard, which provides standard PROFIBUS totalizer function block behavior.

In this mode, the totalizer block will integrate whatever data it receives. The Out value of a totalizer in this mode has no relationship to the totalizer data reported by the transducer block, ProLink II, or the display.

• Any of the values in Table 2-5, which cause the totalizer function block to pass through the specified totalizer value from the transducer block.

Micro Motion recommends using one of these modes, because the totalizer block output will be more accurate and will match readings taken with ProLink II and the display.

To configure the totalizer block mode:

2.7 Configuring pressure compensation

Due to process pressure change away from calibration pressure, there can be a change in sensor flow and density sensitivity. This change is called pressure effect. Pressure compensation corrects for these changes.

Not all sensors and applications require pressure compensation. Contact Micro Motion Customer Service before you configure pressure compensation.

Configuring pressure compensation requires three steps:

1. Determining pressure compensation values (Section 2.7.1)

2. Enabling pressure compensation (Section 2.7.2)

3. Selecting a pressure source (Section 2.7.3)

2.7.1 Pressure compensation values

There are three values involved in pressure compensation:

• Flow factor – The flow factor is the percent change in flow rate per psi. Consult the product data sheet for your sensor for this value. You will need to reverse the sign of the flow factor. For example, if the flow factor in the product data sheet is –0.001% per psi, the pressure compensation flow factor would be +0.001% per psi.

• Density factor – The density factor is the change in fluid density, in g/cm product data sheet for your sensor for this value. You will need to reverse the sign of the density factor. For example, if the density factor in the product data sheet is –0.00004 g/cm per psi, the pressure compensation flow factor would be +0.00004 g/cm

• Flow calibration pressure – The pressure at which the flowmeter was calibrated. Refer to the calibration document shipped with your sensor. If the data is unavailable, use 20 psi (1,4 bar).

Note: When setting the IN channel to Pressure via the EDD, the OUT channel will be automatically set to Pressure as well. Setting the IN channel via bus parameters does not automatically change the OUT channel. You must manually set the OUT channel to Pressure or the block will go into Out of Service mode.

2.7.3 Configuring a pressure source

You will need to choose one of two sources for pressure data:

• Analog Output function block – This option allows you to poll for pressure data from an external pressure source.

• Fixed pressure data – This option uses a known, constant pressure value.

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

If you configure pressure compensation to use an AO block for pressure compensation, the other AO block remains available for temperature compensation. However, only one of the AO blocks can be set up for external pressure.

To configure fixed pressure data, refer to the menu flowcharts in Figure 2-5.

To configure an AO function block for pressure compensation:

• With the EDD, refer to the flowchart in Figure 2-6.

• With bus parameters, refer to the flowchart in Figure 2-7.

• With the display, refer to the menu flowcharts in Figure B-15.

2.8 Configuring temperature compensation

External temperature compensation can be used with the petroleum measurement application or the enhanced density application:

• If external temperature compensation is enabled, an external temperature value (or a fixed temperature value), rather than the temperature value from the Coriolis sensor, is used in petroleum measurement or enhanced density calculations only. The temperature value from the Coriolis sensor is used for all other calculations.

• If external temperature compensation is disabled, the temperature value from the Coriolis sensor is used in all calculations.

Configuring temperature compensation requires two steps:

1. Enabling external temperature compensation (Section 2.8.1)

2. Configuring a temperature source (Section 2.8.2)

2.8.1 Enabling external temperature compensation

To enable temperature compensation, refer to the flowcharts in Figure 2-8.

2.8.2 Configuring a temperature source

External temperature data is reported through an analog output (AO) function block. The transmitter has two AO blocks, each of which can be assigned to a compensation variable channel.

To configure an AO function block for temperature compensation:

• With the EDD, refer to the flowchart in Figure 2-9.

• With bus parameters, refer to the flowchart in Figure 2-10.

• With the display, refer to the flowcharts in Figure B-15.

Calibration

3.1 Overview

This chapter describes the following procedures:

• Characterization (Section 3.3)

• Smart Meter Verification (Section 3.4)

• Meter validation and adjusting meter factors (Section 3.5)

• Zero calibration (Section 3.6)

• Density calibration (Section 3.7)

• Temperature calibration (Section 3.8)

3.2 Characterization, Smart Meter Verification, meter validation, and calibration

There are four procedures:

• Characterization – adjusts the transmitter to compensate for the unique traits of the sensor with which it is paired

• Smart Meter Verification – establishing confidence in the sensor’s performance by analyzing secondary variables that are highly correlated with flow and density calibration factors

• Meter validation – confirming performance by comparing the sensor’s measurements to a primary standard

• Calibration – establishing the relationship between a process variable (flow, density, or temperature) and the signal produced by the sensor, or establishing the transmitter’s response to a zero-flow condition.

Meter validation, characterization, and calibration are available on all Model 2700 transmitters. Smart Meter Verification is available only if the Smart Meter Verification option was ordered with the transmitter.

These four procedures are discussed and compared in Sections 3.2.1 through 3.2.4. Before performing any of these procedures, review these sections to ensure that you will be performing the appropriate procedure for your purposes.

Calibration

3.2.1 Characterization

Characterizing the flowmeter adjusts the transmitter to compensate for the unique traits of the sensor it is paired with. Characterization parameters (sometimes called “calibration factors”) describe the sensor’s sensitivity to flow, density, and temperature.

If the transmitter and the sensor were ordered together as a Coriolis flowmeter, then the flowmeter has already been characterized. Under some circumstances (typically when pairing a sensor and transmitter together for the first time), you may need to re-enter characterization data. If you are unsure about whether you should characterize your flowmeter, contact Micro Motion Customer Service.

3.2.2 Smart Meter Verification

Smart Meter Verification evaluates the structural integrity of the sensor tubes by comparing current tube stiffness to the stiffness measured at the factory. Stiffness is defined as the load per unit deflection, or force divided by displacement. Because a change in structural integrity changes the sensor’s response to mass and density, this value can be used as an indicator of measurement performance. Changes in tube stiffness are typically caused by erosion, corrosion, or tube damage.

Smart Meter Verification does not affect measurement in any way. Micro Motion recommends performing Smart Meter Verification at regular intervals.

3.2.3 Meter validation and meter factors

Meter validation compares a measurement value reported by the transmitter with an external measurement standard. Meter validation requires one data point.

Note: For meter validation to be useful, the external measurement standard must be more accurate than the sensor. See the sensor’s product data sheet for its accuracy specification.

If the transmitter’s mass flow, volume flow, or density measurement is significantly different from the external measurement standard, you may want to adjust the corresponding meter factor. A meter factor is the value by which the transmitter multiplies the process variable value. The default meter factors are

1.0, resulting in no difference between the data retrieved from the sensor and the data

reported externally.

Meter factors are typically used for proving the flowmeter against a Weights & Measures standard. You may need to calculate and adjust meter factors periodically to comply with regulations.

3.2.4 Calibration

The flowmeter measures process variables based on fixed points of reference. Calibration adjusts those points of reference. Three types of calibration can be performed:

•Zero

• Density calibration

• Temperature calibration

Density and temperature calibration require two data points (low and high) and an external measurement for each. The density and temperature calibration procedure changes the offset and/or the slope of the line that represents the relationship between process density and the reported density value, or the relationship between process temperature and the reported temperature value.

Note: For density or temperature calibration to be useful, the external measurements must be accurate.

Calibration

Zero calibration requires only that flow through the sensor is stopped.

Flowmeters are calibrated at the factory, and normally do not need to be calibrated in the field. Calibrate the flowmeter only if you must do so to meet regulatory requirements. Contact Micro Motion before calibrating your flowmeter.

Note: Micro Motion recommends using meter validation and meter factors, rather than calibration, to prove the meter against a regulatory standard or to correct measurement error.

3.2.5 Comparison and recommendations

When choosing among Smart Meter Verification, meter validation, and calibration, consider the following factors:

• Process and measurement interruption

- Smart Meter Verification provides an option that allows process measurement to continue

during the test.

- Meter validation for density does not interrupt the process. However, meter validation for

mass flow or volume flow requires process down-time for the length of the test.

- Calibration requires process down-time. In addition, density and temperature calibration

require replacing the process fluid with low-density and high density fluids, or low-temperature and high-temperature fluids. Zero calibration requires stopping flow through the sensor.

Startup ConfigurationCalibrationBefore You Begin

• External measurement requirements

- Smart Meter Verification does not require external measurements.

- Zero calibration does not require external measurements.

- Density calibration, temperature calibration, and meter validation require external

measurements. For good results, the external measurement must be highly accurate.

• Measurement adjustment

- Smart Meter Verification is an indicator of sensor condition, but does not change

flowmeter internal measurement in any way.

- Meter validation does not change flowmeter internal measurement in any way. If you

decide to adjust a meter factor as a result of a meter validation procedure, only the reported measurement is changed—the base measurement is not changed. You can always reverse the change by returning the meter factor to its previous value.

- Calibration changes the transmitter’s interpretation of process data, and accordingly

changes the base measurement. If you perform a zero calibration, you can return to the factory zero (or, if using ProLink II, the previous zero). However, if you perform a density calibration or a temperature calibration, you cannot return to the previous calibration factors unless you have manually recorded them.

Micro Motion recommends obtaining the Smart Meter Verification transmitter option and performing Smart Meter Verification on a regular basis.

3.3 Performing a characterization

Characterizing a flowmeter involves entering parameters that are printed on the sensor tag.

3.3.1 Characterization parameters

The characterization parameters that must be entered depend on the sensor type: “T-Series” or “Other,” as listed in Table 3-1. The “Other” category includes all Micro Motion sensors except T-Ser ies .

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 3-1 and 3-2 for illustrations of newer and older sensor tags.
