system. This manual describes the basic functions of the WinSetup configuration software, how to set up
tank capacity tables (TCT), product parameters for inventory calculations, and various service functions.
The manual includes a brief description of the recommended setup procedure for a Rosemount Tank
Gauging system.

The Rosemount Tank Gauging product portfolio includes a wide range of components for small and large
customized tank gauging systems. The system includes various field devices, such as radar level gauges,
temperature transmitters, and pressure transmitters for complete inventory control. The TankMaster
software suite provides you with the tools that you need to configure and operate the Rosemount Tank
Gauging system. For detailed descriptions of how to setup various devices refer to the respective
reference manuals. The Rosemount Tank Gauging System Configuration Manual
comprehensive information on Rosemount Tank Gauging systems and how to use WinSetup for setting
up Rosemount Tank Gauging systems. See “Technical documentation” on page 5 for a list of technical
documentation.

TankMaste r™ WinSetup is the recommended tool for setting up a Rosemount Tank Gauging

1.1 What is Rosemount TankMaster?

Rosemount TankMaster is an Emerson Automation Solutions/Rosemount Tank Gauging inventory
management software package for installation and configuration of level gauging equipment. It
provides you with powerful and easy-to-use tools for installation and configuration of level gauging
devices such as radar transmitter gauges (RTGs). Settings for protocols, devices and tanks can be
changed in real time.

provides

Introduction

The graphical interface gives you a clear overview of installed devices and tanks. For each tank you can
easily see the associated transmitters in the WinSetup application.

Key features

 Monitoring of measured data
 Clear overview of installed tanks and devices (using WinSetup)
 Simple installation using wizards (using WinSetup)
 Open connectivity
 Object-oriented, user-friendly Graphical User Interface (GUI)

Rosemount TankMaster is designed to be used in a Microsoft
access to measurement data from any PC in your network. Measurements and data are presented in
realtime and you can customize views to suit your needs.

Rosemount TankMaster lets you connect via the TRL2, RS232, RS485, or Ethernet TCP/IP interfaces. Other
communication interfaces, such as Enraf BPM, are also supported. Rosemount TankMaster is based on the
open OPC standard, allowing you to import data into other systems such as DCS:s, PLC:s, Scada systems
and Microsoft Office programs.

The TankMaster software package comprises several software modules such as:

 WinOpi
 WinSetup
 WinView
 Tank Server
 Master Protocol server
 Slave Protocol Server

WinOpi

WinOpi is the operator interface to the tank gauging system. It communicates with the Tank Server and
various protocol servers to let the user monitor measured tank data. WinOpi also provides:

 alarm handling
 automatic report distribution
 historical data sampling
 inventory calculations for volume, observed density and other parameters.

WinSetup

The WinSetup program is a graphical user interface (GUI) for installation, configuration and maintenance
of level gauging devices.

WinView

WinView is the operator´s interface to the tank gauging system. It communicates with the Tank Ser ver
and the different protocol servers to let the user monitor measured tank data. WinView also provides

alarm handling, automatic report handling as well as inventory calculations for volume and mass.

Introduction

Reference Manual

00809-0100-5110, Rev AA

Tank Server

The Tan k Ser ver communicates with devices via the Master Protocol Server and handles configuration data
for all installed tanks and devices. Parameters stored by the Tank Server include:

 device names
 configuration data, such as antenna type
 number of connected temperature sensors
 number of connected analog inputs

The Tank Server collects data from connected devices and distributes this information to the WinOpi and
WinSetup user interface.

Master protocol server

The Master Protocol Server transfers configuration data and measured data between the Tank Server and
connected devices in the tank gauging system. The Master Protocol Server is able to communicate with
various types of devices such as FCUs, the Rosemount 2410 Tank Hub, and the Rosemount 5900S Radar
Level Gauge to collect measurements for, for example, level, temperature and pressure.

Slave protocol

Introduction

December 2018

The Slave Protocol Server is used to connect the Tan k Mas te r system to a host computer (DCS system). The
Slave Protocol Server exchanges tank data between the Tank Ser ver and the host computer.

OPC Server with browser

Ta nk Ma st er uses OPC Data Access 2.0 (OLE for Process Control), an open industry standard, which
eliminates the need for costly customized software integration.

With the OPC server and the browser it is easy to import all custody transfer and inventory data to other
OPC clients such as different DCS:s, PLC:s, Scada systems, or Microsoft Office® programs.

See the web site for the OPC Foundation for more information: www.opcfoundation.org

Customized views

You can customize specific views and windows in Ta nk Ma ste r. Existing objects can be modified or new
ones. You could, for example, create a window with an embedded image of your own plant, to give a
realistic overview, and configure the window so that when you click on a specific tank in the image you

3.1 Communication protocol setup

The TankMaster work station can be connected to field devices and host computers via Master and Slave
protocols. The Modbus Master protocol is available as default protocol when the Rosemount
TankMaster software is installed on a TankMaster work station. Optional protocols, such as the Modbus
Slave protocol for communication with host systems, can be obtained as well. Please contact Emerson
Automations Solutions for more information on Rosemount Tank Gauging systems.

A Modbus protocol offers up to eight channels. Enraf and HART protocols support 16 channels. For each
channel you can specify which PC communication port (USB/COM) to connect to, as well as standard
communication parameters such as Baud Rate, Parity, and number of Stop Bits.

3.4.1 Overview

The purpose of the tank installation procedure is to associate various devices to the right tanks. It also
includes mapping variables such as Free Water Level and Vapor Pressure to specific instrument outputs.

Basic Functions

December 2018

Installing a new tank is a simple and straightforward procedure when using the tank installation wizard.

Note

Make sure that measurement units are specified before installing a new tank. See also “Measurement

units” on page 34.

The specified measurement units only affect installation of new tanks. Changing measurement units has
no effect on tanks which are already installed in WinSetup. This means that if you want to change
measurement units for an installed tank, it has to be uninstalled first, and then installed again after
changing the measurement units in the Server Preferences/Units window. See also “Measurement units”

on page 34.

A tank installation includes the following steps:

1. Specify tank type: Fixed Roof, Floating Roof, Sphere, Horizontal etc.

2. Select which devices to associate with the tank.

3. Configure the tank. For inventory calculations you will need to specify source signals for Free Water

Level (FWL), Vapor Temperature, Vapor Pressure and Liquid Pressure.

4. Specify input for the different tank variables: automatic (measured by a field device) or manual

values.

3.5 Level gauge calibration

A minor level gauge adjustment may be needed in order to accurately match measured and actual
product levels. For example, a deviation may result from minor errors in tank geometry parameters such
as the tank height (R) or the position of the Gauge Reference Point (see the Rosemount 5900S Radar
Level Gauge reference manual

The Rosemount 5900 can be calibrated by using the Calibration Distance parameter. It can be manually
adjusted in the 5900 Properties/Geometry window.

For Still-pipe applications, you may use the Calibrate function to automatically calculate an optimized
Correction Factor and Calibration Distance based on measurement data and hand dipping at different
product levels.
