1 Preliminary note
Please read the supplied operating instructions for all articles described
below prior to set-up.
These instructions are an amendment to the supplied operating instructions of the
SAxxxx flow sensors in which all setting options via the pushbuttons on the sensor
are described.
These present instructions also give alternative options for parameter setting via
the IO-Link interface.
2 Operating modes
With regard to the software the SAxxxx flow sensor behaves like 3 sensors on a
hardware platform: The following three operating modes can be selected for flow
measurement.
Operating
mode
Medium Process value display
REL Liquids, air % of the taught range
LIQU Liquids m/s, l/min, m
3
/h (fps, gpm, cfm)
GAS Air m/s, l/min, m
3
/h (fps, gpm, cfm)
The operating modes can be set via the pushbuttons on the sensor. Alternatively,
the operating mode can be transferred to the sensor by means of the memory
plug E30398 (→ 3) or the LINERECORDER SENSOR software (→ 4).
3 Operating mode selection via memory plug E30398
By means of the memory plug E30398 it is possible to duplicate the parameter set
and therefore the operating mode of a sensor to several sensors of the same type.

3.1 Procedure
1. Set the operating mode on the sensor:
► Change from the RUN mode to the initialisation menu [
INI
]
► Select [ModE] and define the operating mode: REL, GAS, LIQU.
A medium and an internal pipe diameter must be entered for the operating modes
LIQU and GAS.
When the factory setting is changed (ModE = REL), the unit displays [≡≡≡≡] to force
these entries:
► Press [●].
> [MEdI] is displayed.
► Define medium.
> [diA] is displayed.
► Define the internal pipe diameter in mm or inch.
The operating mode REL requires a flow adjustment.
A change of the operating mode leads to a restart of the unit.
The settings are saved in the respective operating mode,
i.e. after a change of the operating mode the settings are not lost.
2. Save the parameter set of the sensor on the memory plug:
Requirement:
The memory plug is used as delivered (empty / [Write protected])
► Connect the memory plug to the supply voltage.
Ub
► Connect memory plug and sensor.
> The memory plug reads the parameter set of the sensor
and saves it.
