Chapter 1 – Introduction
This chapter describes the structure of this manual and presents an
overview of the Level Sensor (LS) Application Module for the
FloBoss™ 107 (“FB107”). The LS Application Module provides all the
functions necessary to communicate with a level sensor (such as an
Advanced Telemetrics 1100LD digital tank gauge or any other level
sensor using that protocol), including an onboard communications port
that enables module-to-LS communications without using one of the
communications ports on the FB107.
The standard APP 485 application module (which includes the LS
Application Module) streamlines the installation process by
automatically installing all point types and screens that are part of the
application. APP 485 modules can house a variety of applications; for
further information about additional APP 485 modules, contact your
sales representative.
Level Sensor Application Module User Manual
1.1 Scope and Organization
This document serves as the user manual for the Level Sensor
Application module, which is intended for use in a FloBoss 107
(FB107). This manual describes how to install and configure the Level
Sensor Application module (referred to as the “LS Application module”
or “the module” throughout the rest of this manual). You access and
configure this module using ROCLINK™ 800 Configuration Software
loaded on a personal computer running Windows® 2000 (with Service
Pack 2), Windows XP, or Windows Vista.
The sections in this manual provide information in a sequence
appropriate for first-time users. Once you become familiar with the
procedures and the software, the manual becomes a reference tool.
This manual has the following major sections:
Chapter 1 – Introduction
Chapter 2 – Installation
Chapter 3 – Configuration
Chapter 4 – Reference
This manual assumes that you are familiar with the FB107 and its
configuration. For more information, refer to the FloBoss 107 Flow
Manager Instruction Manual (Form A6206) or the ROCLINK 800
Configuration Software User Manual (for FloBoss 107) (Form A6217).
1.2 Product Overview
The Level Sensor Application module enables the FB107 to
communicate directly with up to ten level sensors (reporting on oil or
Issued Jun-09 Introduction 1-1
Level Sensor Application Module User Manual
water or both) on the same EIA-485 (RS-485) communications port.
(The module provides its own communication for this purpose.) The
module serves as an interface between the sensors and the FB107,
supporting the Advanced Telemetrics 1100LD or 1100C digital tank
gauges or any other level sensor using that protocol. The module polls
data from the level sensor, validates that data, and updates the
appropriate production totals using that data.
At a scan interval you specify, the module polls each sensor, requesting
current tank levels and fluid temperatures. As each sensor responds, the
module compares the current tank level value against that sensor’s last
good level value response.
If the sensor reports a difference (representing a drop in level), the
module multiplies that difference by a conversion factor (“strapping
value”) you define, reflects that change in the accumulated runs, and
calculates and updates the closing stock value. For this module, the drop
in level value represents a load. The module also determines production
values, which represent increases in the level values, using the
calculation:
(Closing stock value) + (Accumulated runs) – (Opening stock value)
At the contract hour (which you can either specifically define for the
module or default to the contract hour defined on the FB107), the
module:
Copies the total production values for all tanks to yesterday’s total
production and initializes total production, and
Copies the closing stock values to the opening stock values and
initializes the accumulated runs and production.
1.2.1 Wave Smoothing
The module uses an algorithm to limit the detection of “waves,” or false
changes in fluid level. You use the Level Sensor Data screen (see
Section 3.2) to configure the wave smoothing parameters, which
include:
Maximum wave limit (distance in inches above or below the last
valid reading).
Scan periods (the number of times the module reads the level to
validate the wave height).
Wave timeout (the number of scans to determine if level variations
are due to liquid movement or “sloshing”). This parameter enables
you to validate and count level changes that are smaller than the
maximum wave limit.
To assist in the calculations, the module also tracks the following values
and displays them on the Level Sensor Data screen:
Current level (the actual measured level).
Production accumulation (positive changes in level).
Load accumulation (negative changes in level).
1-2 Introduction Issued Jun-09
Level Sensor Application Module User Manual
Change (sensor level minus production or load level).
Once each scan period, the module reads the sensors and performs wave
smoothing calculations. You can configure maximum wave limits
(typically 1 inch) and specify the number of scan periods (typically one
per second) until the module considers a wave a valid reading (where
the wave timeout value = 5) for oil or water.
When the module first reads the sensor, the module stores that value as
the production or load level. When the next sensor reading occurs, the
module compares the stored production level value to the actual reading
and, depending on the amount of change, performs one of three actions:
No change
If the difference between one reading and the next is less than or
equal to the maximum wave limit value, the module retains the
current value for the specified number of scan periods until wave
timeout value expires. At that time the level becomes the production
or load level and the module adjusts the accumulators accordingly.
Positive change
If the difference between one reading and the next is positive and
greater than the maximum wave limit value, the module adds the
change to the production accumulator and the new level becomes
the production or load level. The module continues to add positive
changes to the production accumulator until there are no more
changes outside of the maximum wave limit and the wave timeout
value expires. At that time the level becomes the production or load
level.
Negative change
If the difference between one reading and the next is negative and
greater than the maximum wave limit value, the module adds the
change to the load accumulator and continues adding subsequent
values to the load accumulator as long as the level continues to drop
and the wave timeout value has not expired.
Figure 1 presents a flow chart illustrating this process:

DO Points
To save power, you can specify a DO point the module controls,
which enables you to turn on a level sensor before it is polled and then
turn it off after polling. This is typically a DO status point (2,x,3). To
accomplish this, you need to connect to a DOR module on the FB107
or supply your own relay.
1.3 Program Requirements
The Level Sensor Application module is compatible with version 1.20
(or greater) of the FB107 firmware and with version 1.82 (or greater) of

Chapter 2 – Installation
This chapter provides instructions for installing the LS Application
module. Read Section 1.3 of this manual for program requirements.
2.1 Installing the Application Module
The application module occupies the standard footprint of a FB107 I/O
or communications module. To install the module, place it in an empty
slot (1 through 7) on the FB107. To ensure that the FB107 recognizes
the module, you must perform a warm start (ROC > Flags > Warm
Start).
Note: Although the label on the physical module is APP 485, the
Description field on the General tab verifies that this module
contains the Level Sensor Application. See Figure 3.
Level Sensor Application Module User Manual
Figure 3. LS Application Module
Once you have verified that the FB107 has recognized the LS
Application module, proceed to Chapter 3 to begin configuring the
module.

2-2 Installation Issued Jun-09
Chapter 3 – Configuration
After you have successfully installed the LS Application module in the
FB107, you configure the module using two module-specific screens
(Level Sensor Program Configuration and Level Sensor Data):
Use the Level Sensor Program Configuration screen to define the
number of sensors; assign a DO point to the module, and set scan,
polling, and communication parameters.
Use the Level Sensor Data screen to set sensor-specific parameters
such as labels, alarms, and wave smoothing values. This screen also
displays production information and polling status.
You must configure the module before you can establish
communications with the level sensors. To configure the module (after
logging onto ROCLINK 800 and successfully installing the module),
proceed through the screens as shown in this chapter.
Level Sensor Application Module User Manual
You can access all the module-specific screens from the main
ROCLINK 800 screen:
