2 Quick start

2.1 Power up the transmitter

The transmitter must be powered up for all configuration and commissioning tasks, or for process measurement.
Procedure
1. Verify that all transmitter and sensor covers and seals are closed.
WARNING
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 resulting in injury or death.
2. Turn on the electrical power at the power supply.
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 Check meter status

Check the meter for any error conditions that require user action or that affect measurement accuracy.
Procedure
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, the Transmitter Initializing alert is active. This
alert should clear automatically when the power-up sequence is complete.
2. Check the status LED on the transmitter.
Table 2-1: Status LED and device status
Status LED condition Device status
Solid green No alerts are active.
Solid yellow One or more alerts are active with Alert Severity = Out of Specification,
Maintenance Required, or Function Check.
Solid red One or more alerts are active with Alert Severity = Failure.
Flashing yellow (1 Hz) The Function Check in Progress alert is active.

Enhanced FF host Configure Manual Setup Characterization
Basic FF host Measurement TB Device Calibration (OD Index 95–113)
Characterizing the meter adjusts your transmitter to match the unique traits of the sensor it is paired with. The characterization parameters (also called calibration parameters) describe the sensor’s sensitivity to flow, density, and temperature. Depending on your sensor type, different parameters are required.
Values for your sensor are provided on the sensor tag or the calibration certificate.
If your transmitter was ordered with a sensor, it was characterized at the factory. However, you should still
verify the characterization parameters.
Perform a characterization whenever you replace a core processor.
Procedure
1. Optional: Specify Sensor Type.
Straight Tube (T-Series sensors)
Curved Tube (all sensors except T-Series)
Note
Unlike earlier transmitters, the 5700 derives Sensor Type from the user-specified values for FCF and K1 in combination with an internal ID.
2. Set the flow calibration factor: FCF (also called Flow Cal or Flow Calibration Factor). Be sure to include
all decimal points.
3. Set the density characterization parameters: D1, D2, TC, K1, K2, and FD. (TC is sometimes shown as
DT.)
4. Apply the changes as required by the tool you are using.
The transmitter identifies your sensor type, and characterization parameters are adjusted as required:
If Sensor Type changed from Curved Tube to Straight Tube, five characterization parameters are
added to the list.
If Sensor Type changed from Straight Tube to Curved Tube, five characterization parameters are
removed from the list.
If Sensor Type did not change, the list of characterization parameters does not change.
5. T-Series sensors only: Set the additional characterization parameters listed below.

If your sensor tag shows the FCF and the FT values separately and you need to enter a single value, concatenate the two values to form the single parameter value, retaining both decimal points.
Concatenating FCF and FT
FCF = x.xxxx FT = y.yy Flow calibration parameter: x.xxxxy.yy

2.9.3 Density calibration parameters (D1, D2, K1, K2, FD, DT, TC)

Density calibration parameters are typically on the sensor tag and the calibration certificate.
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. If you cannot find a Dens A or D1 value, enter 0.001 g/cm3.
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 you cannot find a Dens B or D2 value, enter 0.998 g/cm3 .
If your sensor tag does not show a K1 or K2 value:
For K1, enter the first five digits of the density calibration factor. In this sample tag, this value is shown as
12500.
For K2, enter the second five digits of the density calibration factor. In this sample tag, this value is shown
as 14286.
Figure 2-4: K1, K2, and TC values in the density calibration factor
If your sensor does not show an FD value, contact customer service.
If your sensor tag does not show a DT or TC value, enter the last four characters of the density calibration factor. In the sample tag shown above, the value is shown as 4.44.
Do not confuse the Meter Factor line on the pictured sensor tag with any meter factor settings discussed in this manual.

ProLink III Device Tools Calibration Smart Zero Verification and Calibration Verify Zero
Field communicator Service Tools Maintenance Calibration Zero Calibration Perform Zero Verify
Enhanced FF host Service Tools Maintenance Calibration Zero Calibration Perform Zero Verify
Basic FF host Measurement TB Perform Zero Verify (OD Index 124)
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.
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:
The zero is required by site procedures.
The stored zero value fails the zero verification procedure.
Do not verify the zero or zero the meter if a high-severity alert is active. Correct the problem, then verify the zero or zero the meter. You may verify the zero or zero the meter if a low-severity alert is active.
Procedure
1. Prepare the meter:
a) Allow the meter to warm up for at least 20 minutes after applying power.
b) Run the process fluid through the sensor until the sensor temperature reaches the normal
process operating temperature.
c) Stop flow through the sensor by shutting the downstream valve, and then the upstream valve if
available.

3 Introduction to configuration and commissioning

3.1 Security and write protection

The transmitter has several features that can help to protect it against intentional or unintentional access and configuration changes.
When locked, the mechanical lock switch on the front of the display prevents any configuration changes
to the transmitter from any local or remote configuration tool. A transmitter without a display does not have a lock switch.
When enabled, the software setting Write Protection prevents any configuration changes. The setting
can only be enabled if the transmitter does not have a display.
If the Universal Service Port (USP) is disabled, the port cannot be used by any service tool to communicate
with or make changes to the transmitter.
When enabled, Security prevents any configuration changes being made from the display unless the
appropriate password is entered.
When enabled, the fieldbus write lock prevents any configuration changes being written from the fieldbus
segment.

3.1.1 Universal Service Port security

This transmitter is equipped with a Universal Service Port that works with USB type A connections, including compatible flash drives. There are multiple levels of security built into the transmitter's service port that you can configure according to your needs and security standards.
The service port offers the following features that enhance interface security:
The service port is inaccessible without physical access to the transmitter and requires removal of the
terminal cover
The service port can be disabled from the transmitter through software
The transmitter has a non-traditional operating system that is not designed to execute programs or run
scripts
The display can be password protected to limit access to the USB file menu
Overall transmitter security switches such as the lock switch or write-protection disallows configuration
changes from all interfaces including the Universal Service Port
This transmitter:
Was designed to be implemented in an industrial automation control system (Level 1 and Level 2 of the
Purdue Reference Architecture Model), with defense in depth security controls
Is not intended to be directly connected to an enterprise or to an internet-facing network without a
compensating control in place

Display
ProLink III Device Tools Configuration Process Measurement Flow Flow Rate Damping
Field communicator Configure Manual Setup Measurements Flow Flow Damping
Enhanced FF host Configure Manual Setup Measurements Flow Flow Damping
Basic FF host Measurement TB Flow Damping (OD Index 29)
Flow Damping controls the amount of damping that will be applied to the measured mass flow rate. It affects flow rate process variables that are based on the measured mass flow rate. This includes volume flow rate and gas standard volume flow rate.
Menu Configuration Process Measurement Flow Variables Flow Damping
Flow Damping also affects specialized flow rate variables such as temperature-corrected volume flow rate
(API Referral) and net mass flow rate (concentration measurement).
Damping is used to smooth out small, rapid fluctuations in process measurement. The damping value specifies the time period, in seconds, over which the transmitter will spread changes in the process variable.
34 Micro Motion 5700 Transmitters with FOUNDATION Fieldbus
Configuration and Use Manual Configure process measurement
MMI-20029970 June 2021
At the end of the interval, the internal value of the process variable (the damped value) will reflect 63% of the change in the actual measured value.
Procedure
Set Flow Damping to the value you want to use.
Default: 0.64 seconds
Range: 0 seconds to 60 seconds
Note
If a number greater than 60 is entered, it is automatically changed to 60.
Tip
A high damping value makes the process variable appear smoother because the reported value changes
slowly.
A low damping value makes the process variable appear more erratic because the reported value changes
more quickly.
The combination of a high damping value and rapid, large changes in flow rate can result in increased
measurement error.
Whenever the damping value is non-zero, the reported measurement will lag the actual measurement
because the reported value is being averaged over time.
In general, lower damping values are preferable because there is less chance of data loss, and less lag time
between the actual measurement and the reported value.
The transmitter automatically rounds off any entered damping value to the nearest valid value. Therefore,
the recommended damping value for gas applications should be 3.2 seconds. If you enter 2.56, the transmitter will round it off to 3.2.
For filling applications, Micro Motion recommends using the default value of 0.04 seconds.
Effect of flow damping on volume measurement
Flow damping affects volume measurement for liquid volume data. Flow damping also affects volume measurement for gas standard volume data. The transmitter calculates volume data from the damped mass flow data.
Interaction between Flow Damping and mA Output Damping
In some circumstances, both Flow Damping and mA Output Damping are applied to the reported mass flow value.
Flow Damping controls the rate of change in flow process variables. mA Output Damping controls the rate of change reported via the mA Output. If mA Output Process Variable is set to Mass Flow Rate, and both Flow Damping and mA Output Damping are set to non-zero values, flow damping is applied first, and the added damping calculation is applied to the result of the first calculation.

Do not use your meter for measurement with Mass Flow Cutoff set to 0.0 g/sec. Ensure that Mass Flow Cutoff is set to the value that is appropriate for your sensor.
Cutoff
Effect of Mass Flow Cutoff on volume measurement
Mass Flow Cutoff does not affect volume measurement. Volume data is calculated from the actual mass data rather than the reported value.
Volume flow has a separate Volume Flow Cutoff that is not affected by the Mass Flow Cutoff value.
Interaction between Mass Flow Cutoff and mA Output Cutoff
Mass Flow Cutoff defines the lowest mass flow value that the transmitter will report as measured. mA Output Cutoff defines the lowest flow rate that will be reported via the mA Output. If mA Output Process Variable is set to Mass Flow Rate, the mass flow rate reported via the mA Output is controlled by the higher of
the two cutoff values.
Mass Flow Cutoff affects all reported values and values used in other transmitter behavior (e.g., events defined on mass flow).
mA Output Cutoff affects only mass flow values reported via the mA Output.
Example: Cutoff interaction with mA Output Cutoff lower than Mass Flow Cutoff
Configuration:
mA Output Process Variable: Mass Flow Rate
Frequency Output Process Variable: Mass Flow Rate
mA Output Cutoff: 10 g/sec
Mass Flow Cutoff: 15 g/sec

MMI-20029970 June 2021
Result: If the mass flow rate drops below 15 g/sec, mass flow will be reported as 0, and 0 will be used in all internal processing.
Example: Cutoff interaction with mA Output Cutoff higher than Mass Flow Cutoff
Configuration:
mA Output Process Variable: Mass Flow Rate
Frequency Output Process Variable: Mass Flow Rate
mA Output Cutoff: 15 g/sec
Mass Flow Cutoff: 10 g/sec
Result:
If the mass flow rate drops below 15 g/sec but not below 10 g/sec:The mA Output will report zero flow.
The Frequency Output will report the actual flow rate, and the actual flow rate will be used in all
internal processing.
If the mass flow rate drops below 10 g/sec, both outputs will report zero flow, and 0 will be used in all
internal processing.

Density Damping controls the amount of damping that will be applied to density data.
Damping is used to smooth out small, rapid fluctuations in process measurement. The 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 of the process variable (the damped value) will reflect 63% of the change in the actual measured value.
Procedure

48 Micro Motion 5700 Transmitters with FOUNDATION Fieldbus
Configuration and Use Manual Configure process measurement
MMI-20029970 June 2021
Tip
A high damping value makes the process variable appear smoother because the reported value changes
slowly.
A low damping value makes the process variable appear more erratic because the reported value changes
more quickly.
The combination of a high damping value and rapid, large changes in density can result in increased
measurement error.
Whenever the damping value is non-zero, the damped value will lag the actual measurement because the
damped value is being averaged over time.
In general, lower damping values are preferable because there is less chance of data loss, and less lag time
between the actual measurement and the damped value.
If a number greater than 60 is entered, it is automatically changed to 60.
Effect of Density Damping on volume measurement
Density Damping affects liquid volume measurement. Liquid volume values are calculated from the damped density value rather than the measured density value. Density Damping does not affect gas standard volume measurement.
Interaction between Density Damping and mA Output Damping
When the mA Output is configured to report density, both Density Damping and mA Output Damping are applied to the reported density value.
Density Damping controls the rate of change in the value of the process variable in transmitter memory. mA Output Damping controls the rate of change reported via the mA Output.
If mA Output Source is set to Density, and both Density Damping and mA Output Damping are set to non­zero values, density damping is applied first, and the mA Output damping calculation is applied to the result of the first calculation. This value is reported over the mA Output.

Tip
Fixed values for temperature or pressure are not recommended. Using a fixed temperature or pressure value may produce inaccurate process data.
Important
Line temperature data is used in several different measurements and calculations. It is possible to use the
internal RTD temperature in some areas and an external temperature in others. The transmitter stores the internal RTD temperature and the external temperature separately. However, the transmitter stores only one alternate temperature value, which may be either the external temperature or the configured fixed value. Accordingly, if you choose a fixed temperature for some uses, and an external temperature for others, the external temperature will overwrite the fixed value.

5.2 Set up concentration measurement

The concentration measurement application calculates concentration from line density and line temperature.

5.2.1 Preparing to set up concentration measurement

The procedure for setting up concentration measurement application depends on how your device was ordered and how you want to use the application. Review this information before you begin.
Requirements for concentration measurement
To use the concentration measurement application, the following conditions must be met:
The concentration measurement application must be enabled.
The API Referral application must be disabled.
Configuration and Use Manual 69
Configure process measurement applications Configuration and Use Manual
June 2021 MMI-20029970
The Advanced Phase Measurement application must be disabled or set for the Liquid with Gas application.
A concentration matrix must be loaded into one of the six slots on the transmitter.
Tip
In most cases, the concentration matrix that you ordered was loaded at the factory. If it was not, you have several options for loading a matrix. You can also build a matrix.
Temperature Source must be configured and set up.
One matrix must be selected as the active matrix (the matrix used for measurement).
Requirements for matrices
A matrix is the set of coefficients used to convert process data to concentration, plus related parameters. The matrix can be saved as a file.
The transmitter requires all matrices to be in .matrix format. You can use ProLink III to load matrices in other formats:
.edf (used by ProLink II)
.xml (used by ProLink III)
The transmitter can store matrices in two locations:
One of the six slots in memory
The transmitter's SD card
Any matrix in a slot is available for use. In other words, it can be selected as the active matrix and used for measurement. Matrices on the SD card are not available for use. Matrices must be loaded into a slot before they can be used for measurement.
All matrices in slots must use the same derived variable. Matrices on the SD card have no requirement for their derived variables to match.
Requirements for derived variables
A derived variable is the process variable that a concentration matrix measures. All other process variables are calculated from the derived variable. There are eight possible derived variables. Each matrix is designed for one specific derived variable.
The transmitter can store up to six matrices in six slots. There are additional matrices on the transmitter's SD card. All matrices in the six slots must use the same derived variable. If you change the setting of Derived Variable, all matrices are deleted from the six slots. Any matrices on the transmitter's SD card are not affected.
Tip
Always ensure that Derived Variable is set correctly before loading matrices into slots.
Derived variables and net flow rate
If you want the transmitter to calculate Net Mass Flow Rate, the derived variable must be set to Mass Concentration (Density). If your matrix is not designed for Mass Concentration (Density), contact customer support for assistance.
If you want the transmitter to calculate Net Volume Flow Rate, the derived variable must be set to Volume Concentration (Density). If your matrix is not designed for Volume Concentration (Density), contact customer support for assistance.

6.2 Detect and report two-phase flow

Two-phase flow (gas in a liquid process or liquid in a gas process) can cause a variety of process control issues. The transmitter provides two methods to detect and report or respond to two-phase flow.

Measurement TB Two Phase Flow Setup (OD Index 91–94)
The transmitter can use line density data to detect two-phase flow (gas in a liquid process or liquid in a gas process). The density limits are user-specified. When two-phase flow is detected, an alert is posted.
Procedure
1. Set Two-Phase Flow Low Limit to the lowest density value that is considered normal in your process.
Values below this will cause the transmitter to post a Process Aberration alert.
Tip
Gas entrainment can cause your process density to drop temporarily. To reduce the occurrence of two­phase flow alerts that are not significant to your process, set Two-Phase Flow Low Limit slightly below your expected lowest process density.
You must enter Two-Phase Flow Low Limit in g/cm³, even if you configured another unit for density measurement.
Default: 0 g/cm³
Range: 0 g/cm³ to the sensor limit
2. Set Two-Phase Flow High Limit to the highest density value that is considered normal in your process.
Values above this will cause the transmitter to post a Process Aberration alert.
Tip
To reduce the occurrence of two-phase flow alerts that are not significant to your process, set Two­Phase Flow High Limit slightly above your expected highest process density.
You must enter Two-Phase Flow High Limit in g/cm³, even if you configured another unit for density measurement.
Default: 5 g/cm³
Range: 5 g/cm³ to the sensor limit

The transmitter always monitors sensor diagnostics and applies a two-phase flow algorithm. You can assign an mA Output to report the results of this calculation: single-phase flow, moderate two-phase flow, or severe two-phase flow. Severe two-phase flow can cause the meter to stop functioning.
Procedure
Set mA Output Source to Two-Phase Flow Detection.

Flow Rate Switch is used to indicate that the flow rate has moved past a user-specified setpoint, in either
direction. The flow rate switch is implemented with a user-configurable hysteresis.
Typically, a Discrete Output is assigned as the flow rate switch indicator. The Discrete Output can be wired to an external device such as a light or a horn.
Prerequisites
A channel must be configured as a Discrete Output, and the Discrete Output must be available for this use.
Configuration and Use Manual 93
Configure advanced options for process measurement Configuration and Use Manual
June 2021 MMI-20029970
Procedure
1. Set Discrete Output Source to Flow Switch, if you have not already done so.
2. Set Flow Switch Variable to the flow variable that you want to use to control the flow rate switch.
3. Set Flow Switch Setpoint to the value at which the flow switch will be triggered (after Hysteresis is
applied).
Depending on the polarity of the Discrete Output:
If the flow rate is below this value, the Discrete Output is ON.
If the flow rate is above this value, the Discrete Output is OFF.
4. Set Hysteresis to the percentage of variation above and below the setpoint that will operate as a
deadband.
Hysteresis defines a range around the setpoint within which the flow rate switch will not change.
Default: 5%
Range: 0.1% to 10%
Example
If Flow Switch Setpoint = 100 g/sec and Hysteresis = 5%, and the first measured flow rate is above 100 g/sec, the discrete output is OFF. It will remain OFF unless the flow rate drops below 95 g/sec. If
this happens, the discrete output will turn ON, and remain ON until the flow rate rises above 105 g/sec. At this point it turns OFF and will remain OFF until the flow rate drops below 95 g/sec.

4. Optional: Set User Name to the name you want to use for the inventory or totalizer.
User Name can have a maximum of 16 characters.
The transmitter automatically generates a name for each totalizer and inventory, based on its source, direction, and type.
Example
Totalizer Source=Mass Flow
Totalizer Direction=Forward Only
Totalizer name=Mass Fwd Total
Example
Inventory Source=Gas Standard Volume Flow
Inventory Direction=Bidirectional
Inventory name = GSV Bidir Inv
The specified name is used on the transmitter display and on all interfaces that support it. If User Name contains only spaces, the transmitter-generated name is used. Not all interfaces support totalizer and inventory names.
Example: Checking for backflow
You suspect that there is a significant amount of backflow through the sensor. To collect data, configure two totalizers as follows:
Source=Mass Flow, Direction=Forward Only
Source=Mass Flow, Direction=Reverse Only
Reset both totalizers, allow them to run for an appropriate period, then look at the amount of reverse flow as a percentage of forward flow.
Example: Tracking three different process fluids
Three tanks are connected to a loading dock through a single meter. Each tank contains a different process fluid. You want to track each process fluid separately.
