1. Introduction
Overview
The CFT51 Digital Coriolis Mass Flow Transmitter, when used with a Foxboro® CFS flowtube,
measures the mass flow rate, density, and temperature of process fluid directly. It uses digital signal
processing technology in conjunction with the Coriolis principle. The transmitter provides
frequency, scaled pulse, 4 to 20 mA current, alarm, and contact outputs. It also supports
nonvolatile totalization of the output.
You can configure the CFT51 transmitter to use the HART or Modbus communication protocol
via LCD indicator pushbuttons on the transmitter at any time.
HART communications protocol can be used in full digital communications mode to a HART
host system, or as a direct analog communications interface over the 4-20 mA analog signal with a
HART communicator or the configuration software.
Modbus communications protocol allows full digital communications using a Modbus
communication interface.
Local communication is always available using the LCD indicator/configurator.

Input/Output Wiring
The CFT51 supports multiple I/O options, both isolated and non-isolated, which require
external power source.
However, if only one power source is available, the + terminals of the I/Os can be connected
together. In this case the I/Os are no longer isolated from each other.
In addition, for backward compatibility with existing CFT50 installations, the + terminals can all
be connected together and powered by the same power source.

Modbus Wiring
Figure 25 shows the typical connection of the Modbus-configured CFT51 Transmitter to a
Modbus master. It may be necessary to install the optional termination resistor to reduce signal
reflections on long cable length interconnections. It may also be necessary to reverse the Modbus
signal wires for some Modbus masters to keep the proper D0 and D1 signaling convention.
Follow Modbus wiring guidelines and requirements as documented online at
www.modbus.org.
Figure 25. Typical Modbus Wiring
The maximum length of signal wires for Modbus communications is 1000 m (3280 ft), operating
at the default 9600 baud rate, running 26 AWG and 150 ohm terminator resistor. Use twisted
shielded wire. Connect shield on both ends.
For systems with a common connection, use dual twisted shielded wire. One twisted pair for D0
and D1 and the other twisted pair shorted together on both ends for the common connection.

Current Output MA1 and HART Communication Interface
The HART communications interface, superimposed on the 4-20 mA signal, is
available only on Current Output (MA1).
The maximum length of signal wires for HART communication is 3,050 m (10,000 ft). It is
1,525 m (5,000 ft) in HART digital multidrop mode. Current Output 1 must have a minimum
loop load of 250 ohms when HART communications is used.
CFT51 transmitters with HART communication are factory-configured to poll address 0,
allowing them to operate in the standard point-to-point manner superimposed on the 4-20 mA
signal.
The loop load resistor can be a value from 0 to 683
add the series resistance of each component in the loop, excluding the transmitter.

The pulse output (Pulse Output 1 and Pulse Output 2) signal is typically used with a receiver
such as an external totalizer or control system. The pulse output is a high side switch or sourcing
output. If the receiver requires a sourcing input and is internally current limited, it can be
connected as shown in Figure 30.
Figure 30. Pulse Output with a Sourcing Input Receiver (with Internal Current Limiting,
Pulse Output 1 or Pulse Output 2)
For receivers requiring a sourcing input but without internal current limiting, a resistor is required
to limit the current to that specified by the receiver as shown in Figure 31. The pulse output
current is limited to 80 mA maximum.
For example:
V=24 Vdc

If the receiver requires a current sinking input (such as a contact closure or transistor switch), a
resistor is required across the receiver terminals as shown in Figure 32. The resistor should be sized
to limit the on-state current in the pulse output to 80 mA maximum.
Figure 32. Pulse Output with a Receiver Requiring a Sinking Input (Pulse Output 1 or
Pulse Output 2)
Because of the internal bias currents produced by some receivers requiring sinking inputs, a
resistor divider may be necessary to help ensure that the low input threshold requirement of the
receiver is met. This configuration is shown in Figure 33. R1 and R2 must limit the pulse output
on-state current to 80 mA maximum.

HART Digital Multidrop Communication
“Multidrop” refers to the connection of several transmitters to a single transmission line. You can
configure HART communications using the pushbuttons on the LCD indicator. Communication
between the host computer and the transmitters takes place digitally.
On selecting multidrop communication while you configure HART version 5, the
first analog output of the transmitter is deactivated. First analog output deactivation is
optional for HART versions 6 and higher.
With the HART digital communications protocol, up to 63 transmitters can be connected on a
single twisted pair of wires or over leased telephone lines.
The application of a multidrop installation requires consideration of the update rate necessary
from each transmitter, the combination of transmitter models, and the length of the transmission
line. Communication with the transmitters can be accomplished with any HART compatible
modem and a host implementing the HART protocol. Each transmitter is identified by a unique
address (1-63 for HART versions 6 and higher, or 1-15 for HART version 5) and responds to the
commands defined in the HART protocol.
Figure 34 shows a typical HART digital multidrop network. Do not use this figure as an
installation diagram.
Follow HART Communications guidelines and requirements as documented online
at www.hartcomm.org.
Figure 34. Typical HART Multidrop Network
CFT51 transmitters with HART communication are set to poll address 0 at the
factory, allowing them to operate in the standard point-to-point manner
superimposed on a 4 to 20 mA output signal. To activate multidrop communication,
the transmitter address, when configured with HART version 6 or greater, must be
changed to a number from 1 to 63. Each transmitter must be assigned a unique
number on each multidrop network.

Write Protect Jumper
The write protection jumper, located on the printed wiring board shown in Figure 37, allows or
prevents anyone from changing the configuration of the transmitter or resetting the grand
totalizers. (Batch totalizers, however, can still be changed.) This feature is usually used in custody
transfer applications, or to ensure that the configuration and/or totals are not changed.
The jumper is usually placed in the “disabled” (factory default) position. Placing the jumper in
the “enabled” position engages the write protection feature.
If write protection is enabled and someone tries to enter Quick Start mode, enter Setup mode, or
reset the totals, the display reads WPROT/LOCKED.
A change in the write protect jumper position takes effect immediately.
When the CFT51 is configured with the U.S.
Weights and Measures Custody Transfer NTEP (-T)
or Weights and Measures Industry Canada Approvals
(-D) model code options (available only with CFS10
and CFS20 flowtubes), the transmitter displays the
message WritProt Disabled when the write
protection jumper is disabled.

3. Quick Start
NOTE
NOTE
The CFT51 Transmitter can be configured with the local keypad/display, with a HART
communicator, or with the Modbus protocol interface. With any of these options, two
configuration menus exist, Quick Start and Setup. Most basic applications can be configured in
Quick Start mode; other applications require using Setup mode.
If write protection is enabled, the display reads WPROT/LOCKED and you cannot enter
Quick Start or Setup mode. To disable write protection, you must first turn the power
off, move the write protect jumper to the disable position, and then turn the power
back on. See “Write Protect Jumper” on page 52.
When to Use Quick Start Mode
Quick Start mode can be used for applications requiring only:
Flow measurement in the currently selected units. (The factory default is mass flow in
lb/min.)
Positive flow direction.
Use Setup mode (described in “Setup” on page 151) for applications involving:
Volume flow or density measurements
Mass flow units other than the currently selected units
Pulse or multiple Contact Outputs
Alarm or Totalizer functions
Reverse or bidirectional flow.
Flowtube information, including the flowtube model and calibration coefficients, must be entered
in the CFT51 transmitter. The CFT51 transmitter requires three flowtube coefficients: FC2,
DC2, and DC4.
Flow and density coefficients must be entered in real number decimal format (such as
+0.003452), where previous CFT transmitters used exponential format (such as
+3.54062E+02).

Measure Mode
The Measure mode, which is your main operating mode, is displayed upon startup. Depending
on the transmitter configuration, it has up to 13 displays, any/all of which can be configured for
viewing. See “Display” on page 175. All such displays can be configured to be scrolled with the
Up/Down arrow keys or they can also be configured to cycle automatically from one to the other.
Mass Flow — Shows current mass flow rate (forward or reverse) in the selected
engineering units.
Vol um e Flow — Shows current volume flow rate (forward or reverse) in the selected
engineering units.
Density — Shows current density in the selected engineering units.
Concentration — Shows current percent concentration.
If the input(s) to the concentration measurement are out of range, or if the calculated
output is beyond the specified limits, an error message will alternate with the current
value: INP O/R - input (density or temperature) is out of range, or OUT O/R output (calculated concentration) is out of range.
Temperature — Shows current process temperature in the selected engineering units.
Totals 1, 2, 3, and 4 — Shows current totals in the selected engineering units.
If the totalizer measurement exceeds the configured format, the display will alternate
the message ROLLOVER with the current rollover value.
Component A and B Measurements — Shows current mass or volume flow rate
(forward or reverse) in the selected engineering units.
The transmitter can also be configured so that the readings on the measurement display blink
when an alarm and/or diagnostic condition is present. An arrow symbol also appears in the lower
right corner of the display when an alarm occurs. An Up arrow indicates a high alarm; a Down
arrow indicates a low alarm.
The transmitter has a feature which can produce compensated measurements in 2-phase
applications for greater accuracy. The symbol 2 appears in the lower right corner of the display if
2-phase flow is present. This symbol does not indicate that the 2-phase feature is configured “on.”
To activate the 2-phase feature, refer to “2 Phase” on page 183.

Configuring Totals
Totals 1, 2, 3, 4, and Pulse Totals 1 and 2 can be turned on, off, or cleared from the Measure
mode
Taking measurements online:
When using the local keypad push-button to reset Totalizers or to initiate Total Pulse, pressing
the ENTER key from the Measure mode will take the measurements off-line, which means:
4 to 20 mA outputs are held at the last value
Pulse output(s), if set to rate/frequency, are held at the last value, and
Pulse output(s), if set to total, are held at zero.
This condition will continue until you exit the off-line mode and return to Measure mode. If
you are idle for more than 10 minutes during the off-line mode, on-line operation
automatically resumes.
The menu selections to turn on, off, or clear the pulse totalizers do not appear in the
Measure mode unless that pulse output is configured for total mode.
Passwords can be employed to help protect the grand total(s) and batch total(s). The high level
password is required to clear a grand total. If both high and low level passwords are enabled, either
the high or low level password can be used to clear a batch total.
To perform this function:
1. Press the Right arrow key during any measurement display.
2. Enter the password (if passwords are employed).
3. Use the Down arrow key to select the desired total.
4. Select off, on, or clear and press Enter.
Total 1, Total 2, Total 3, and Total 4 can be individually cleared by an external
contact. An external contact can also be used to clear all batch totals or all grand
totals.
Totals can also be cleared using the HART Communicator or Modbus protocol.
If write protection is enabled, the display reads WPROT/LOCKED and you cannot reset
grand totals. Batch totals can be protected only by using the lower level password.
To disable write protection, move the write protect jumper to the “disable” position.
See “Write Protect Jumper” on page 52.

NOTE
Alarm Actions
Conditions That Can Be Alarmed
Alarms can be set for the high setpoint and low setpoint of mass flow, volume flow, density,
concentration, temperature, and component measurements. Alarms can also be set for the high
setpoint of each total measurement.
Actions of Transmitter During Alarm Conditions
Display — The display can be configured to respond or not respond to a specific alarm. The
display can be configured to blink or not blink in response to an alarm condition. An arrow
symbol also appears in the lower right corner of the display when an alarm occurs. An Up arrow
indicates a high alarm; a Down arrow indicates a low alarm.
Milliampere Outputs — Alarms can be configured to force the milliampere output associated
with the alarm to go fully upscale, fully downscale, be held at the last value, or ignore or do
nothing.
Pulse Outputs — Pulse Outputs 1 and 2 have the same options as mA outputs for alarms. Alarms
can be configured to force the pulse output associated with the alarm to go fully upscale, fully
downscale, be held at the last value, or ignore or do nothing.
Relay Contact Outputs — Contact output relay can be configured to respond or not respond to
a specific alarm.
Status Mode — Alarm conditions are defined in the status mode. Either Alarm or No Alrm is
displayed.
Acknowledging Alarms — The alarm acknowledge function can be configured as Auto or
Manual. In Auto, all evidence of the alarm clears when the alarm condition no longer exists. In
Manual, the alarm must be acknowledged manually.
Three methods are available to acknowledge alarms when they are configured for manual
acknowledgment. These methods are effective only after the condition that caused the alarm no
longer exists. The methods are:
Using the local keypad in Status mode. See “Status Mode” on page 66 for details.
Using the HART Communicator or Modbus protocol.
Using an external contact if the contact input was configured to acknowledge alarms
and diagnostics.
A power cycle also acknowledges the alarms.

NOTE
Diagnostic Actions
Conditions That Can Be Diagnosed
Process conditions which preclude a valid measurement
Hardware issue (transmitter, flowtube, and wiring)
Invalid configuration
Actions of Transmitter During Diagnostic Conditions
Display — When a diagnostic condition is present, the entire display can be configured to blink
or not blink.
Outputs — If a diagnostic condition exists, the transmitter can not reliably compute flowrate.
Therefore, the transmitter flowrate outputs go fully upscale, fully downscale, or are held at the last
value depending on the configuration.
Status Mode — The Status mode can be helpful in identifying a diagnostic condition. The Diag
window in Status mode gives an error code and the runtime the diagnostic condition occurred.
This time is presented as the total number of hours the transmitter has been powered. A history is
given for up to 10 conditions. Once the limit of 10 is reached, the oldest diagnostic is dropped
and the new one added. The interpretation of this code and possible corrective actions is given
“Error Codes” on page 195.
Acknowledging Diagnostics — The diagnostic acknowledge function can be configured as Auto
or Manual. In Auto, all evidence of the diagnostic message clears when the diagnostic condition
no longer exists. In Manual, the diagnostic message must be acknowledged manually.
Three methods are available to acknowledge diagnostics when they are configured for manual
acknowledgment. These methods are effective only after the diagnostic condition no longer exists.
The methods are:
Using the local keypad in Status mode. See “Status Mode” on page 66 for details.
Using the HART Communicator or Modbus protocol.
Using an external contact if the contact input was configured to acknowledge alarms
and diagnostics.
A power cycle also acknowledges the diagnostic.

mA Calibration Procedure Using the HART
Communication Protocol
The front panel menu for mA cal requires that you complete the entry of the measured values at
both 4 mA and 20 mA points.
1. Enter the measured value at the 4 mA point to initiate the sequence.
2. Enter the value for 20 mA, which will calculate new offset and span calibration values
and store them in the database for that particular mA output.
Now you can toggle back and forth between the 4 mA and 20 mA menu choices
(without making a change) and see the result of the changes.
At either point, the default value can be cursored through and entered if the measured
value is acceptable.

6. Operation with Modbus Protocol
This section describes Modbus protocols used to communicate with the CFT51 Transmitter and
the parameters that are assigned to Modbus registers.
The Modbus registers used are listed and described in two ways. First the Modbus registers are
described in groups of related transmitter data, and secondly a complete sequential listing of all
registers used is given.
Modbus Communication Overview
Modbus Protocols
RTU Modbus is a binary protocol that uses serial communications for data transfer. Multiple
devices may be addressed on a single RS485 network. A set of Modbus commands are used to
read from and write to registers containing data. Both RTU formatted commands and responses
are protected by a 16 bit CRC. This protocol is supported by the CFT51.
The following protocols are not supported by the CFT51:
Modbus ASCII
Modbus/TCP
Modbus/UDP
Modbus RTU in TCP Message Format
Modbus RTU in UDP Communication Mode
79
Page 80
MI 019-140 – November 20196. Operation with Modbus Protocol
Modbus Function Codes
Modbus Commands
Modbus commands and responses are limited to a total of 256 bytes in size. The following table
lists the Modbus function codes or commands supported by the CFT51 transmitter.
03Read Holding Registers Read the contents of multiple holding registers.
04Read Input RegistersRead the contents of multiple input registers.
05Write Single CoilSet a single coil On or Off.
06Preset Single RegisterChange the contents of a single holding register.
08DiagnosticsPerform diagnostic tests and return communication status information.
15Write Multiple CoilsSet multiple coils On or Off.
16Preset Multiple Registers Change the contents of multiple holding registers.
17Report Slave IDRead device specific identification.
Read/Write Registers consist of two bytes of data in MSB-LSB (most significant byte-least
significant byte) order. A Modbus read multiple registers command can access a contiguous block
of registers (1 to 125) in one transaction. A Modbus preset multiple registers command can write
a contiguous block of registers (1 to 123) in a single transaction. Note that the maximum register
count is reduced by 1 when accessing floating point values.
For more information on the protocol, refer to the Modbus application protocol specification
which can be downloaded from the Modbus website (http://www.modbus-ida.org/specs.php).
Diagnostic Command Options Supported
The following table lists the Modbus diagnostic function codes or commands supported by the
CFT51 transmitter.

Floating-point values are stored in two consecutive registers. Both registers must be
read or written in the same Modbus command. Not doing so results in an exception
response.
ASCII1Two ASCII characters are stored in each register.
Controlling Access to the Configuration Database
Access to the configuration database can be optionally controlled using any combination of the
following methods.
Hardware Write Protect
A jumper on the CPU PWA can be set to disable all changes to the transmitter configuration
attempted from both the local display and the communications interface. This feature is usually
used in custody transfer applications or when you want, for another reason, to help ensure that
the configuration and or totals are not changed.
This method requires partial disassembly of the CFT51 to gain access to the jumper and cannot
be overridden. See “Write Protect Jumper” on page 52. The jumper is usually placed in the
“disable” position (factory default position). Placing the jumper in the “enable” position engages
the protection. When write protect is enabled, Modbus registers are read-only. (When writeprotect is disabled, the read/write ability corresponds to the Modbus Register Database
table.)
A change in write protection does not take effect until power is turned off, the write
protect jumper moved, and power turned on again.
Software Passwords
Controlled access to configuration changes can be made by enabling the password capability in
the transmitter. Passwords, once enabled, control configuration modifications from both the local
display and the communication interface.
Mechanical Protection
Additional mechanical means such as a lock out seal may be employed to control access to this
transmitter.

Modbus Registers
This section of the manual describes some of the CFT51 Transmitter parameters that are assigned
to Modbus registers. The registers described are divided into categories for ease of reference. See
“Modbus Register Database” on page 133 for a complete listing of CFT51 transmitter Modbus
registers in numerical order.
Format of listing registers in this section: #. Register Name (Register address)
The normal practice when documenting Modbus register maps is that all register
numbers are defined to be 1 based. Modbus host software that follows this convention
will automatically subtract 1 from any register number before sending it in a
command to a remote device. If the host software that is in use does not perform this
function, then register numbers must have 1 subtracted from them before they are
used.
Address
The register address is a four digit number. In the presentation in this document, the number
is preceded by a 3 or a 4 and a separator (0) to indicate Read Only and Read/Write
respectively. For example, 40xxxx is Read/Write and 30xxxx is Read only.
