Flowmeter Dosing (P_DoseFM)
The P_DoseFM (Flowmeter Dosing) Add-On Instruction controls an
ingredient addition that uses a flowmeter to measure the quantity of ingredient
added. The flowmeter can be an analog flowmeter (signal proportional to flow), a
pulse generating flowmeter (pulse count proportional to quantity delivered), or a
digital flowmeter providing flow rate or quantity (totalized flow) information.
Global Objects
Faceplate
Add-On Instruction
Guidelines
Use this instruction in these situations:
• You want to control basic dosing (ingredient addition) with basic features,
such as bulk/dribble rate selection, preact, automatic preact adjustment,
and the ability to start, pause, and resume flow.
• You are measuring the quantity of ingredient added by using a flowmeter.
The flowmeter can provide an analog flow rate, an analog quantity (total),
or a pulse count with rollover. This instruction is designed to work well
with high-speed counting input cards, such as the 1756-HSC (High-Speed
Counter) module or the 1756-CFM (Configurable Flowmeter) module.
Rockwell Automation Publication SYSLIB-RM020G-EN-E - February 20177
Flowmeter Dosing (P_DoseFM)
Do not use this instruction in these situations:
• You are transferring material by using a weigh scale to measure the quantity
of material before and after transfer. Use the P_DoseWS (Dosing with
Weigh Scale) instruction instead.
• You need to control precision blending. This instruction excludes
capability for controlled-rate addition, such as ratio control, digital
blending, or precision blending. Contact your Rockwell Automation
representative for a blending solution.
• You only need a totalizer (integrator). Use the built-in TOT instruction
instead.
You could need additional logic in these situations:
• You need more complicated sequencing, including special actions when
restarting, aborting, or holding an addition. This sequencing is a good
candidate for an equipment phase. Equipment phase logic can drive the
P_DoseFM instruction by using its Program mode commands and
settings.
• The equipment requires complicated start-up and shutdown logic. You
can provide this logic separately and use the P_DoseFM outputs to trigger
the startup and shutdown of ingredient delivery.

Flowmeter Dosing (P_DoseFM)
Functional Description
A typical sequence of operator commands, settings, and subsequent instruction
actions by using the P_DoseFM instruction to perform ingredient dosing in
operator mode is depicted in the following diagram.
Rockwell Automation Publication SYSLIB-RM020G-EN-E - February 20179
Flowmeter Dosing (P_DoseFM)
The primary operations of the P_DoseFM instruction include the following:
• Provides inputs for rate (flow rate or quantity per time) and quantity (total
or pulse count).
• Provides the ability to use a pulse count as the Quantity PV, with
configurable rollover count.
• Provides the ability to totalize the flow rate PV to determine the
quantity delivered when the flowmeter provides a rate signal but no
quantity.
• Provides the ability to calculate the flow rate given the quantity by
differentiating with respect to time when the meter provides a total or
pulse count but no rate. If the rate PV is calculated from an input quantity,
the P_DoseFM instruction uses a first-order (lag) filter on the calculated
rate PV signal to reduce the impact of jitter, scan time, quantization error,
or input signal noise.
• Provides a low rate cutoff function, used to ignore flow rate values near
zero to deal with noise or zero calibration error in the rate signal.
• Provides the ability to use a flowmeter with built-in totalizer. Forwards the
totalizer clear command to the flowmeter and checks that the flowmeter's
total was reset. Once the total is cleared, the instruction checks for
unrequested flow; that is, an increase in the delivered total before flow is
actually started, and raises a zero fault if such flow occurs.
• Provides outputs to control associated equipment (pumps, valves, and so
forth) to start and stop flow. The operator or the program could start the
ingredient addition, then pause, and resume it if needed.
• Monitors the status of controlled equipment (pumps, valves, and so forth).
Flow is stopped and an alarm is raised on an equipment fault or if the
equipment fails to respond as commanded.
• Monitors rate and/or quantity input communication status and provides
indication of uncertain or bad rate PV or quantity PV. Flow is stopped and
an alarm is raised on a bad PV or communication loss.
• Provides program or operator entry of a quantity to deliver (setpoint) and
calculates the quantity remaining to deliver and percent complete during
delivery.
• Provides program or operator entry of high and low tolerance limits. Lets
the program or operator initiate a tolerance check after delivery is
complete. Provides a warning if under tolerance and lets the operator
bump the flow to make up the shortage. The bump can be set up as a timed
bump or as an operator jog-like function. Provides an alarm if over
tolerance and inhibits further flow.
• Includes the ability to automatically switch to a lower dribble flow rate as
the quantity delivered approaches setpoint. Provides operator or program
entry of the dribble quantity. Provides run, dribble, and stop outputs to
controlled equipment.
10Rockwell Automation Publication SYSLIB-RM020G-EN-E - February 2017
Flowmeter Dosing (P_DoseFM)
• Uses a preact value to stop flow to account for material in the pipe, time for
equipment to stop, and delays in measurement, scan, communication, and
so forth. Provides operator or program entry of the preact value. Provides
an optional automatic preact correction based on the error in delivery
when tolerance is checked. The auto correction lets the preact ‘learn’ the
correct value over time.
• Uses the standard mode (P_Mode) instruction to provide mode
(ownership) for entry of settings and acceptance of commands. See the
Operating Modes section for more information.
Required Files
Add-On Instructions are reusable code objects that contain encapsulated logic
that can streamline implementing your system. This lets you create your own
instruction set for programming logic as a supplement to the instruction set
provided natively in the ControlLogix® firmware. An Add-On Instruction is
defined once in each controller project, and can be instantiated multiple times in
your application code as needed.
Controller File
The P_DoseFM_3_5-00_AOI.L5X Add-On Instruction must be imported into
the controller project to be used in the controller configuration. The service
release number (boldfaced) can change as service revisions are created.
Visualization Files
This Add-On Instruction has associated visualization files that provide a
common user interface. These files can be downloaded from the Product
Compatibility and Download Center at
The visualization file dependencies require Process Library content imports to
occur in a specific order as reflected in the following tables:
• Images
• Global Objects
• Standard Displays
• HMI Tags
• Macros
Images are external graphic files that can be used in displays. They must be
imported for FactoryTalk View to make use of them.
When PNG files are imported, they are renamed by FactoryTalk View with
a .bmp file extension, but retain a .png format.

Controller Code
This section describes the parameter references for this Add-On Instruction.
Flowmeter Dosing Input Structure
Input parameters include the following:
• Input data elements (Inp_) are typically used to connect field inputs from
I/O modules or signals from other objects.
• Configuration data elements (Cfg_) are used to set configurable
capabilities and features of the instruction.
• Commands (PCmd_, OCmd_, MCmd_) are used by program logic,
operators, and maintenance personnel to request instruction actions.
• Settings (PSet_, OSet_, MSet_) are used by program logic, operators, and
maintenance personnel to establish runtime setpoints, thresholds, and so
forth. A Setting (without a leading P, O, or M) establishes runtime settings
regardless of role or mode.
