2 Quick start
Topics covered in this chapter:

Power up the transmitter

Check meter status

Make a startup connection to the transmitter
Verify mass flow measurement
Verify the zero
2.1 Power up the transmitter
The transmitter must be powered up for all configuration and commissioning tasks, or for process measurement.
1. Ensure that all transmitter and sensor covers and seals are closed.

Quick start

DANGER!
To prevent ignition of flammable or combustible atmospheres, ensure that all covers and seals are tightly closed. For hazardous area installations, applying power while housing covers are removed or loose can cause an explosion.
2. Turn on the electrical power at the power supply.
The transmitter will automatically perform diagnostic routines. The transmitter is self-switching and will automatically detect the supply voltage. When using DC power, a minimum of 1.5 amps of startup current is required. During this period, Alert 009 is active. The diagnostic routines should complete in approximately 30 seconds. For transmitters with a display, the status LED will turn green and begin to flash when the startup diagnostics are complete. If the status LED exhibits different behavior, an alert is active.
Postrequisites
Although the sensor is ready to receive process fluid shortly after power-up, the electronics can take up to 10 minutes to reach thermal equilibrium. Therefore, if this is the initial startup, or if power has been off long enough to allow components to reach ambient temperature, allow the electronics to warm up for approximately 10 minutes before relying on process measurements. During this warm-up period, you may observe minor measurement instability or inaccuracy.
2.2
Configuration and Use Manual 7
Check meter status
Check the meter for any error conditions that require user action or that affect measurement accuracy.
Quick start
1. Wait approximately 10 seconds for the power-up sequence to complete.
Immediately after power-up, the transmitter runs through diagnostic routines and checks for error conditions. During the power-up sequence, Alert A009 is active. This alert should clear automatically when the power-up sequence is complete.
2. Check the status LED on the transmitter.

Review the troubleshooting suggestions for flow measurement issues.

Verify the zero

Verifying the zero helps you determine if the stored zero value is appropriate to your installation, or if a field zero can improve measurement accuracy.
The zero verification procedure analyzes the Live Zero value under conditions of zero flow, and compares it to the Zero Stability range for the sensor. If the average Live Zero value is within a reasonable range, the zero value stored in the transmitter is valid. Performing a field calibration will not improve measurement accuracy.
Important
In most cases, the factory zero is more accurate than the field zero. Do not zero the meter unless one of the following is true:
Configuration and Use Manual 9
Quick start
The zero is required by site procedures.
The stored zero value fails the zero verification procedure.
Procedure
1. Allow the flowmeter to warm up for at least 20 minutes after applying power.
2. Run the process fluid through the sensor until the sensor temperature reaches the normal process operating temperature.
3. Stop flow through the sensor by shutting the downstream valve, and then the upstream valve if available.
4. Verify that the sensor is blocked in, that flow has stopped, and that the sensor is completely full of process fluid.
5. From ProLink III, choose Device Tools > Calibration > Zero Verification and Calibration > Verify Zero and wait until the procedure completes.
6. Observe the drive gain, temperature, and density readings. If they are stable, check the Live Zero or Field Verification Zero value. If the average value is close to 0, you should not need to zero the meter.
7. If the zero verification procedure fails:
2.5.1
a. Confirm that the sensor is completely blocked in, that flow has stopped, and that
the sensor is completely full of process fluid.
b. Verify that the process fluid is not flashing or condensing, and that it does not
contain particles that can settle out.
c. Remove or reduce sources of electromechanical noise if appropriate.
d. Repeat the zero verification procedure.
e. If it fails again, zero the meter.
Postrequisites
Restore normal flow through the sensor by opening the valves.

Terminology used with zero verification and zero calibration
Term Definition
Zero In general, the offset required to synchronize the left pickoff and the right
pickoff under conditions of zero flow. Unit = microseconds.
Factory Zero The zero value obtained at the factory, under laboratory conditions.
Field Zero The zero value obtained by performing a zero calibration outside the fac-
tory.

Quick start
Term Definition
Prior Zero The zero value stored in the transmitter at the time a field zero calibration
is begun. May be the factory zero or a previous field zero.
Manual Zero The zero value stored in the transmitter, typically obtained from a zero
calibration procedure. It may also be configured manually. Also called “mechanical zero” or “stored zero”.
Live Zero The real-time bidirectional mass flow rate with no flow damping or mass
flow cutoff applied. An adaptive damping value is applied only when the mass flow rate changes dramatically over a very short interval. Unit = con­figured mass flow measurement unit.
Zero Stability A laboratory-derived value used to calculate the expected accuracy for a
sensor. Under laboratory conditions at zero flow, the average flow rate is expected to fall within the range defined by the Zero Stability value (0 ± Zero Stability). Each sensor size and model has a unique Zero Stability val­ue. Statistically, 95% of all data points should fall within the range defined by the Zero Stability value.
Zero Calibration The procedure used to determine the zero value.
Zero Time The time period over which the Zero Calibration procedure is performed.
Unit = seconds.
Field Verification Zero A 3-minute running average of the Live Zero value, calculated by the
transmitter. Unit = configured mass flow measurement unit.
Zero Verification A procedure used to evaluate the stored zero and determine whether or
not a field zero can improve measurement accuracy.

Field Communicator Configure > Manual Setup > Display > Offline Variable Menu Features
Overview
By default, access to the off-line menu of the display is enabled. If it is disabled, you must enable it if you want to use the display to configure the transmitter.
Restriction
You cannot use the display to enable access to the off-line menu. You must make a connection from another tool.

3.4 Disable write-protection on the transmitter configuration

Display OFF-LINE MAINT > CONFG > LOCK
ProLink III Device Tools > Configuration > Write-Protection

Overview
If the transmitter is write-protected, the configuration is locked and you must unlock it before you can change any configuration parameters. By default, the transmitter is not write-protected.
Tip
Write-protecting the transmitter prevents accidental changes to configuration. It does not prevent normal operational use. You can always disable write-protection, perform any required configuration changes, then re-enable write-protection.

Overview
Mass Flow Measurement Unit specifies the unit of measure that will be used for the mass flow rate. The unit used for mass total and mass inventory is derived from this unit.
You can configure the mA and Frequency Outputs independently. For example, you can configure the mA Output for mass flow and the Frequency Output for liquid volume or gas standard volume. If the same process variable is assigned to both the mA and Frequency Outputs, then any selected measurement unit, (mass, volume or gas standard volume), is automatically applied to both outputs.
Procedure
Set Mass Flow Measurement Unit to the unit you want to use.
The default setting for Mass Flow Measurement Unit is g/sec (grams per second).
Configuration and Use Manual 19

Tip
If the measurement unit you want to use is not available, you can define a special measurement unit.
Options for Mass Flow Measurement Unit
The transmitter provides a standard set of measurement units for Mass Flow Measurement Unit, plus one user-defined special measurement unit. Different communications tools may use different labels for the units.

Overview
A special measurement unit is a user-defined unit of measure that allows you to report process data, totalizer data, and inventory data in a unit that is not available in the transmitter. A special measurement unit is calculated from an existing measurement unit using a conversion factor.
Note
Although you cannot define a special measurement unit using the display, you can use the display to select an existing special measurement unit, and to view process data using the special measurement unit.
Procedure
1. Specify Base Mass Unit.
Base Mass Unit is the existing mass unit that the special unit will be based on.
2. Specify Base Time Unit.
Base Time Unit is the existing time unit that the special unit will be based on.
3. Calculate Mass Flow Conversion Factor as follows:
a. x base units = y special units
b. Mass Flow Conversion Factor = x ÷ y
The original mass flow rate value is divided by this value.
4. Enter Mass Flow Conversion Factor.
5. Set Mass Flow Label to the name you want to use for the mass flow unit.
6. Set Mass Total Label to the name you want to use for the mass total and mass
inventory unit.
The special measurement unit is stored in the transmitter. You can configure the transmitter to use the special measurement unit at any time.
Example: Defining a special measurement unit for mass flow
You want to measure mass flow in ounces per second (oz/sec).
1. Set Base Mass Unit to Pounds (lb).
2. Set Base Time Unit to Seconds (sec).
3. Calculate Mass Flow Conversion Factor:
Configuration and Use Manual 21
Configure process measurement
a. 1 lb/sec = 16 oz/sec
b. Mass Flow Conversion Factor = 1 ÷ 16 = 0.0625
4. Set Mass Flow Conversion Factor to 0.0625.
5. Set Mass Flow Label to oz/sec.
6. Set Mass Total Label to oz.
4.1.2 Configure Flow Damping
Display Not available
ProLink III Device Tools > Configuration > Process Measurement > Flow
Field Communicator Configure > Manual Setup > Measurements > Flow > Flow Damping
Overview
Damping is used to smooth out small, rapid fluctuations in process measurement. Damping Value specifies the time period (in seconds) over which the transmitter will spread changes in the process variable. At the end of the interval, the internal value will reflect 63% of the change in the actual measured value.
Procedure
Set Flow Damping to the value you want to use.
The default value is 0.8 seconds. The range depends on the core processor type and the setting of Update Rate, as shown in the following table.
Update Rate setting
Normal
Special
Damping range
0 to 51.2 seconds
0 to 40.96 seconds
The value you enter is automatically rounded off to the nearest valid value. For example, if the damping is currently set to 0.8 seconds, any value entered up to 1.2 seconds will be rounded down to 0.8 seconds, and any value entered from 1.21 to 1.59 seconds will be rounded up to 1.6 seconds.
