Batcher
Application
The unit is normally used for batch control or inventory tracking. The display may be toggled between batch, rate, and grand total. A programmable K-factor makes keying-in engineering units easy. The unit accepts pulse, contact closures or analog inputs and provides two separate preset controls.
Principle of Operation
The batcher receives an input from a pulse producing flowmeter through a sensor. The user programs the batcher to condition the incoming pulses signal and compute the batch flow and flow rate. A wide variety of different functions can then be performed based on the programmed configurations such as start/stop functions, totalizing, and/or flow rate monitoring. Several other inputs, outputs and functions are available.

SECTION 1 INTRODUCTION
1-1 General Description Sections 1 through 8 of this manual describe
the wiring, programming and functionality of the standard Batch controller. Section 9 de­scribes the wiring, programming and function­ality of Batch controllers with software version
8.7 (Option 6). Software version 8.7 incorpo­rates Remote Start, Stop & Reset with EZ PRE (easy preset). EZ PRE is a useful tool for applications that require frequent changes to the Preset amount.
1-3 Principles of Operation
Presets
When the start button is pushed, two relays engage simultaneously to start flow. When the prewarn number is reached, one relay drops out. When the preset number is reached, the other relay drops out. The user may enter the two numbers when setting up the batch counter. The prewarn is set a cer­tain number of counts less than the preset number. If the prewarn is set larger than the preset, the message "PREWRONG" will ap­pear on the display.
The Batch controller uses the following soft­ware versions:
VER 8.7 (Basic unit; Remote Start, Stop
& Reset with EZ PRE “Easy Preset”)
VER 12.0 (Option 4; 16 point linearization)
1-2 Typical Application
Remote
Totalizer
123456
Strip Chart
Recorder
Analog Output
Flowmeter
Pulse Output
RS232 Output
Solenoid Valve
Computer
The above application involves liquid flow. The start button is pushed and the Batcher receives pulses from the flowmeter. The pulses are scaled by the K Factor and sent out via the pulsed output to an external counter. The Analog output is directed to a strip chart recorder which gives a hardcopy of the rate. As the Prewarn is reached, the control valve partially closes. When the final Preset is reached the valve shuts down com­pletely. At any time the flow can be sus­pended by hitting the stop button. Through the serial communications, a computer keeps a record of the daily events.
Ratemeter
Accurate to 5 1/2 digits (±1 display digit). The ratemeter can be programmed to accept al­most any number of pulses per unit of mea­surement, sample from 2 to 24 seconds maxi­mum, and auto range up to 6 digits of signifi­cant information. The ratemeter with a K Fac­tor of 1 displays the rate of pulses per second. Simply dial in the proper K Factor to display in minutes, hours or other units of measurement. Press the C button, while the unit is displaying the batch, to display the rate; 'R' is displayed on the left side of the display.
K Factor
The K Factor is used to convert the input pulses or analog input into workable units. The 8 digit K Factor is a divider with a range of 0.00011 to 99999999 (the decimal point may be keyed into any position). Separate K Factors may be entered into the count and rate sections of the Batcher. Thus, you may batch in gallons and display rate in liters per hour. The maximum factored count speed is 20000 Hz. The maximum factored rate is 7 digits.
16 Point Linearization (Optional) This option extends the accurate range by al­lowing users to dial in different K Factors for different input rates. This option may be used with digital or analog inputs. (See Section 7-
3.)

1-3 Principles of Operation (continued)
Counter
The maximum count is 99999999. In the setup mode choose "RO" (Reset to Zero) for adding (count up) operation or "SP" (Set to Preset) for subtracting (count down) opera­tion. At any time, the display can be made to flash the Grand Total by pressing the ENT button while in the run mode. Activating the CLR button while the Grand Total is flashing, resets the Grand Total counter.
Lockout
Unauthorized front panel changes can be pre­vented by entering a user selected, four digit code, in the "Lockout" mode. The status of the unit can be observed but "LOCK ON" ap­pears if changes are attempted. Entering the code again returns the unit to "LOCK OFF" status.
Analog Output (Optional) The Analog Output option is available on all units except those with Square Law inputs. Controlled by an Open Collector transistor, it gives a 4 to 20mA (or 0-20mA) output which corresponds to predefined rate or total read­ings. In the Setup mode the user is prompted to set the low and high (4 to 20 mA) values and also decide if the analog signal will corre­spond to the ratemeter or totalizer.
Frequency out
The Batcher generates a pulse out for each factored count. An NPN transistor output (Pin
2), can drive external devices at rates of 10, 200, 2000 or 20000 counts per second as se­lected through the keypad menu. If the K Factor scaled inputs generate pulses faster than the output speed selected, an internal buffer will store up to 9,999 counts before "DATALOST" flashes on the screen. This in­dicates that the counts being totaled and the scaled outputs may be incorrect. Note that all counts stored in the internal buffer will be pulsed out at the selected frequency even if the counter is reset.
Outcard (Optional) RS232 or RS422 serial two way communica­tions are available. Up to 15 units can be linked together in parallel and addressed separately to transmit unit status or accept new set points in the standard ASCII format. Baud rates of 300, 600, 1200, 2400, 4800 or 9600 as well as choice of odd, even, space, or mark parity can be selected by keypad con­trol.
A sinking driver generates a linear current across the user's external device (such as a strip chart recorder, PLC, computer, external meter, etc). The Batcher can supply the 24 VDC to power the current loop. (Connect pin 15 to 13, Pin 16 is now +24 VDC with respect to pin 12.) Connect Pin 16 to the + DC side of the external device and connect Pin 3 to -DC side of the external device.

1-4 STD PRE and EZ PRE Operation Modes
STD PRE and EZ PRE Operation Modes
Version 8.7 of the batcher software allows the user to choose between STD PRE (Standard Preset) and EZ PRE (Easy Preset) operation modes. STD PRE operation is well suited for batch amounts that do not change, since the program mode must be entered to change the preset and the batch count must be cleared before starting a new batch. EZ PRE has been designed for users who frequently change the batch amount. During EZ PRE operation, the preset can be viewed and changed without entering the program mode and another batch can be started without resetting the unit. Note:
inputs.
Note:
Before a batch is started and after a batch is complete, the unit will continue to totalize all EZ PRE is not available on units with 16 Point Linearization.
Using STD PRE Programming
Select STD PRE - Go into the Program Mode and
select STD PRE in the PRE TYP sub menu.
Set the PRESET and PREWARN - Go into the
Program Mode and enter the desired values for the PRESET and the PREWARN.
Program the Counter - Go into the Program
Mode and set up the counter in the COUNT sub menu.
Operation Start a Batch - In the Run Mode, reset the total
by pressing “CLR”, then press “A” to start. When started, both relays energize and the counter begins to count. When the batch is complete, the relays drop out and the unit displays the amount that was batched (0 if in Set to Preset mode).
Stop a Batch - Press “B, to temporarily stop
process by de-energizing the PRESET and PREWARN relays. Press start, “A”, to continue process.
Repeat a Batch - In the Run Mode, reset the total
and press the start button.
Change the Batch Size - Go to the Program
Mode and enter new PRESET and PREWARN values.
Using EZ PRE Programming
Select EZ PRE - Go into the Program Mode and
select EZ PRE in the PRE TYP sub menu.
Set the PRESET and PREWARN - Go into the
Program Mode and enter the desired values for the PRESET and the PREWARN.
Program the Counter - Go into the Program
Mode and set up the counter in the COUNT sub menu.
Operation Start a Batch - In the Run Mode, press A to
start. When started, both relays energize and the counter begins to total. When complete, the relays drop out and the display flashes the current PRESET value.
Stop a Batch - Press “B, to temporarily stop
process by de-energizing the PRESET and PREWARN relays. Press start, “A”, to continue process.
Repeat a Batch - Press the start button. Change the Batch Size - With the current
PRESET flashing on the display, type a new number using the keypad. This number becomes the PRESET.

SECTION 2 INSTALLATION
2-1 Receipt of Equipment When the equipment is received, the outside packing case should be checked for damage incurred during shipment. If the packing case is damaged, the local carrier should be notified at once regarding his liability. A report should be submitted to the factory. Carefully remove the equipment from the pack­ing case and inspect for damaged or missing parts.
2-2 Return Shipment Do not return assembly or part with out a Return Material Authorization. The RMA is obtained by calling your local distributor.
2-3 Panel Mounting The controller should be located in an area with a clean, dry atmosphere which is relatively free of shock and vibration. The Batcher is installed in a 7.365" (187 mm) wide by 2.495" (63.4 mm) high panel cutout. To mount the controller proceed as follows: a. Prepare the panel opening. b. Slip the gasket (provided) over the rear of the
counter case and slide it forward until it engages the inner surface of the front bezel.
c. Install the screws (provided) in the mounting
brackets and insert in the holes located on both sides of the Batcher.
d. Tighten the screws firmly to attach the
counter bezel to the panel.
2-4 Electrical Connections (Reference Figures 2-1 to 2-3) All connections are completed at terminal blocks located at the rear of the case. Make sure all power is disconnected before making any electrical connections. In cases where cables are situated in areas with heavy electrical fields,

averaging is not available on units with 16 Point Linearization.
Weighted averaging can be used to create a more stable display when the rate input is fluctuating. A weight, W, from 00 to 99 is applied to the old rate data before the new rate data is sent to the display. The following equation is used:
Rate Display =
W = Weight (00-99)
(Old Data x W + New Data)
(W + 1)

STOP - Pressing B, will temporarily stop
the process by de-energizing the PRESET and PREWARN relays. Use START to continue the process from where it stopped.
RATE/TOTAL - Pressing “C toggles between rate and total count displays. The rate display has an “R” on the left side of the screen.
MENU - Pressing “D takes the unit out of the Run Mode and into the Programming Mode (See Programming, Page 43 and
45). D is also used make to some programming selections.
ENT - With Count showing in the Run Mode, pressing “ENT” displays the Grand Total, which begins flashing on the screen. Press “ENT” again to return to the Count. In the Programming Mode, “ENT” is used to accept a selection (See Programming, Page 43 and 45).
CLR - When the count total is displayed, pressing CLR will reset the counter to 0 or to Preset A depending on how it was programmed. When the Grand Total is displayed, pressing “CLR” will reset it to
0. When the Preset or Program Mode values are displayed, pressing “CLR” will reset them to 0, so that new values can be entered.
If a weight of 00 is used, the new rate data will go directly to the display without being averaged. If a number other than 00 is entered for the weight, then the new data will be averaged with the old data before being sent to the display. Higher weight numbers will create a more stable rate display. Small rate changes will be more noticeable when lower weight numbers are used.
Programming Weighted Averaging
1. In the Program Mode, got to the RATE sub menu and program the K-FACTOR, the WINDOW, and the SIG FIG parameters.
2. When the display shows WEIGHTXX (XX represents the current WEIGHT value), either accept the current value and return to the Run Mode by pressing “ENT” or clear the current value by pressing “CLR”.
3. If the current value was cleared, the display shows WEIGHT00. Using the keypad, enter a new WEIGHT value from 00 to 99. Press “ENT” to accept the new value and return to the Run Mode.
Remote Start, Stop, and Reset
A 4 to 30 VDC positive pulse will activate these inputs. Remote Start, Stop, and Reset is not available on units ordered with the Control Input option 7A (4-20 mA In, 4-20 mA Out).
START (Pin 10): When activated, the unit will
START as described in Front Panel Operation.
STOP/RESET (Pin 5): When activated, the unit will
STOP (If the unit is started and the batch is not complete). A second pulse to pin 5 will reset the counter (When the unit is stopped or when the batch is complete). If pin 5 is held high (4 to 30 VDC), the display will flash “STOPPED” and any start inputs will be inhibited.
