1.4.2 Optional Network Interface With Isolated Digital Pulse Input (Di3)
The System-10 BTU Meter can be provided with an auxiliary pulse input for totalizing pulse outputs from external devices such as water or gas meters. Pulses are accumulated in an internal register, and the totalized value is available on the network. This register can be zeroed via the network. The maximum register total is 9,999,999. The register will rollover to zero when this value is exceeded.
If the auxiliary pulse input option was ordered at the same time the Btu meter was ordered, it will arrive fully congured and ready to use. If it was ordered after the Btu meter was delivered and is being installed as a eld upgrade, it may be necessary to congure the pulse input. The information is required to congure the input provided below and on the following pages:
The input pulse must meet the following criteria:
1. Frequency input range, 50 Hz maximum
2. 10 millisecond minimum pulse duration
Input Pulse Denition:
In order to congure the communications card auxiliary pulse input, you must rst determine which type of pulse your meter produces. The allowable types of input pulses are described on the following pages. Based on the type of pulse, set the selector switch (S1) on the communications circuit board (Fig. 1) to the correct setting.
Fig. 1
AUX PULSE INPUT (Di3) CONNECTOR (T2)
Page 8
Powered Pulse:
This type of output refers to a pulse which has an associated voltage with it (see Fig. 2). Set the selector switch, S1 to Pwrd Pulse. The allowable voltage range is 5-24 VDC. The input impedance is set at the factory to be 11 KOHM via the impedance selector jumper (J1, see Fig. 1). A lower impedance, 3 KOHM can be selected if required by the instrument providing the pulse output. Consult the instrument manufacturer or ONICON if you are uncertain as to the proper jumper selection.

1.5 NETWORK ADDRESSING
The Btu meter contains two microprocessors, the heat computer board processor and the Echelon TP/FT-10F transceiver with its Neuron processor. The TP/FT-10F transceiver is located on the LON board. The two processors communicate with each other using a serial channel. This serial channel device address is xed at 017 and cannot be changed.
1.5.1 LonWorks Network Addressing Every Neuron processor has a unique 48 bit address kown as the Neuron ID. This address is generally used as the Node ID. It is combined with the Domain ID and Subnet ID to form the device address. In most installations, the device address is created dynamically by the network.
1.6 COMMISSIONING THE SYSTEM-10-LON
Pressing the Service Pin on the LON board (see Appendix 2) generates a service pin message on the network. The message contains the Neuron ID and the standard program identier (SPID). The network conguration tool then maps the System-10-LON Neuron ID into the domain/subnet/node ID addressing scheme for the network, creating the device address.
1.6.1 Service Pin LED States
The yellow service pin LED indicates the status of the Lon Talk network connection.
• LED blinking at ½ Hz rate indicates that the meter is in an decommissioned state.
• LED off indicates that the meter is commissioned and operating normally.
1.7 LONWORKS XIF FILES
Each System-10-LON BTU Meter is shipped with a diskette or CD containing the XIF le. It also contains the Neuron executable le in various formats and documentation describing the network variables in detail.
1.7.1 Output Network Variables
The System-10-LON BTU Meter transmits data to the network using Standard Network Variable Types (SNVTs). Volume ow rate, and volume total are provided in oating point format.

1.7.5 Resetting Totals via the Network
Totals are held in non-volatile memory within the Btu meter. Each total (ow, energy or auxiliary input) has a corresponding output variable that transmits the information from the meter to the network. There are two ways to remotely reset totals in the display. This can be done using individual input variables to command the display to reset specic totals or it can be done using the nviRequest variable. Using nviRequest allows you to reset each total individually or all totals simultaneously with one command. See sections
1.7.3 and 1.7.4.1 for specic instructions on how to reset totals.
Page 14
1.7.6 Rollover of Totals
The totals stored in the ow Btu meter memory will roll over to zero when the maximum count is exceeded. When this occurs, the network totals will also roll over to zero. The point at which the rollover occurs is a function of the displayed engineering units and multipliers programmed into the System-10.
The examples below show the rollover point in the engineering units transmitted by the network variable (SNVT) for common totals shown on the System-10-LON BTU Meter.

SECTION 2.0: NETWORK TROUBLESHOOTING TIPS
2.1 TROUBLESHOOTING
REPORTED PROBLEM POSSIBLE SOLUTIONS
For turbine meters ­No Flow Signal/ Energy Rate (while hydronic system is active)
Displayed ow rate too high or too low
Displayed temperature(s) too high or too low vs. expected values
Device is not communicating with the Lon Talk network.
• Verify 24 VDC supply voltage to the ow meter.
• For insertion meters, verify the ow meter is correctly inserted into the pipe (using depth gage).
• For insertion meters, verify that the ow meter electronics enclosure is parallel with the pipe.
• Verify correct wiring to the ow meter (see wiring diagram).
• For turbine meters, check turbine(s) for clogging due to debris.
• If none of the above, check hydronic system to ensure that ow is really present in the line.
• NOTE: Flow meter function cannot be veried by blowing on the turbine(s). The sensing system requires a conductive liquid to operate. You can test it by swirling it around in a bucket of water and looking for the ow indicator LED to ash at the System-10.
• Verify pipe size. Contact ONICON if pipe size is different from calibration tag.
• For insertion meters, verify that meter is inserted correctly into the pipe (using depth gage).
• For insertion meters, verify that the ow meter electronics enclosure is parallel with the pipe.
• For dual turbine meters, conrm that both turbines produce pulses.
• For turbine meters, check turbine(s) for debris.
• Verify supply voltages (to Btu meter and ow meter).
• Verify wiring to temperature sensor(s), including polarity.
• Verify that thermowells are inserted into the ow stream and that the temperature sensors are completely inserted into the thermowells.
• What is the state of the service pin LED?
• Is it ashing? A ashing service pin LED indicates that the Lon module has not been commissioned.
Communications with the Lon Talk network is intermittent.
For technical assistance, contact ONICON at (727) 447-6140.
• Is it off? A service pin LED that is off indicates that the Lon module is commissioned and operating normally.
• Is the network properly terminated? The Lon TP/FT bus can be terminated in 2 different ways.
• A single RC lter can installed at any point on a free topology network. A dual termination scheme is used with 2 RC lters installed at the ends of bus networks. Refer to the Appendix A-6 for details.
• What type of cable is used to wire the network? TP/FT networks should only use twisted shielded pair cable. (Belden 85102 or equiv.)

INTEGER FORMAT OUTPUT NETWORK VARIABLES
Integer format output variables are limited to 2 bytes of data. For this reason, the maximum number that can be transmitted in this format is 65,535. Values for both rate and total data from the Btu meter will often exceed this limit. For this reason, energy rate data is scaled and energy totals are transmitted in segments using multiple variables. This is explained in detail below.
Volume and Energy Rate Variables
The integer output network variables for volume and energy rate are described in the table below. Column 1 contains a brief description of the network variables. Column 2 contains the network variable names. Column 3 contains the Lon SNVTs used for each variable. Column 4 contains the engineering units and column 5, the valid range for each variable. Please note that while the oating point variable for energy rate is transmitted in Watts, the integer network variable is transmitted in kW to ensure that the maximum rate never exceeds the register capacity.

Delta temperature nvoDeltaTempi SNVT_temp_diff_p ° C -327.68 to 327.66
Energy rate nvoEnrRateKWi SNVT_power_kilo KWatts 0 to 65535
Volume and Energy Total Variables
The integer output network variables for volume and energy total are described in the table below. Column 1 contains a brief description of the network variables. Column 2 contains the network variable names. Column 3 contains the Lon SNVTs used for each variable. Column 4 contains the engineering units and column 5, the valid range for each variable.
Please note that while the oating point variable for volume total is transmitted in liters, the integer network variable for volume total is transmitted in kLiters. This is done to increase the maximum total that can be transmitted via the integer variable. Total(s) must be reset before the accumulated value exceeds 6553.5 kliters using nviResetVol1a and/or nviResetVol2a. If this is not done, nvoVol1KLi and/or nvoVol2KLi will over range and continue to indicate 6,553.5 kliters (1,731,252 gallons) until the System-10’s internal total rolls over to zero.
A separate integer SNVT is also available to transmit ow totals in liters. This variable is only used in special small pipe applications as the maximum total it can accumulate is only 65,535 liters (17,312 gallons) before it must be reset.
Energy totals are handled in a slightly different way. The oating point variable for energy total is transmitted in Btu but the integer network variable for energy total is MBtu. This total will over range at 65,535 MBtu. The internal total stored in the Btu meter will not roll over until it exceeds 99,999.99 MBtu.
Page 20
INTEGER FORMAT OUTPUT NETWORK VARIABLES
(continued)
In order to prevent the loss of data nvoMegaBTU1i and/or nvoMegaBTU2i must be reset before the accumulated value exceeds 65,535 MBtu.
A second variable is available for energy totals. It is kBtu. This variable will roll over to zero whenever the accumulated value exceeds 65,535 kBtu. This variable has been provided to accommodate small pipe applications where MBtu is not appropriate. The two energy variables (MBtu and KBtu) can be combined to produce a total with resolution to 1000 Btu (1kBtu). Programming for this calculation is given below.

* Special small pipe volume total variables
Totalizing Using Both the MBtu and KBtu Variables Combined
MBtu (Btu x 1,000,000) is value in nvoMegaBTU1i (or nvoMegaBTU2i)
KBtu (Btu x 1,000,000) is value in nvoKiloBTU1i (or nvoKiloBTU2i)
Combined total = MBtu x 1000 + X
Where X = KBtu - [int (KBtu/1000) x 1000]
Example:
nvoMEGABTU1i present value = 4006 MBtu
nvoKILOBTU!i present value = 6200 KBtu
Combined total = (4006 x 1000) + (6200 - [int(6200/1000) x 1000])
Combined total = 4006000 + (6200 - 6000)
Combined total = 4006200 KBtu
