The Siemens SITRANS FUP1010 Weatherproof IP67 Portable flow meters achieve highly accurate flow measurements using ultrasonic transit-time technology. The sensors are mounted on the outside of the pipe, preventing contact with the medium. This means no cavities or clogging by high paraffin liquids found in many hydrocarbon applications.
The sensors offer superior performance in terms of volumetric flow accuracy, density accuracy, and turn-down ratio. The sensor construction makes installation and commissioning of even the largest sizes very straight forward and easy.
The sensors deliver true multi parameter measurements i.e.: volume flow and temperature.
The flow meter has a degree of protection of IP67.
This operating Instructions manual applies to the following FUP1010 IP67 (weather proof) operating systems: Version 3.02.00K and later and version 4.03.00 and later.
The FUP1010 weatherproof single and dual channel flow meters use a compact and rugged submersible, weatherproof case. The following portable models are available:

3.2 Applications
The system software allows simultaneous operation of one channel in the Transit-Time mode and the other in Reflexor mode.
All SITRANS F 1010 models use transit-time flow measurement technology varying only in functionality and environmental housing.
The SITRANS F 1010 transit-time flow meter is highly resistant to the effects of liquid nonhomogeneity caused by the inclusion of air or solid particulate. However, sonic beam scattering may occur when mineral-based solids or gaseous content is a high percentage of the volume. This can cause difficulty in operation due to signal attenuation. Liquid conditions that may be unsuitable for transit-time operation can be measured using the Reflexor mode. Dual channel portable systems allow operation with one transit-time channel and one Reflexor channel measuring flow on the same pipe.
SITRANS F flow meters are designed for measurement of a variety of liquids and gases. The transmitters are multi-parameter devices offering accurate measurement of mass flow, volume flow, density, and temperature.
The typical applications of the flowmeter are:
Description
3.3 Theory of Operation
The liquid flow meter relies on the MultiPulse transit. Two WideBeam ultrasonic sensors per measuring path, alternating as transmitter and receiver, are used to interrogate the liquid flowing within the metering section. The resulting time of arrival for each direction of transmit (upstream and downstream) is then measured using a highly accurate and stable digital signal processing method.
Using this detection scheme, the flow meter is capable of resolving the relative transit-time difference (dT) to within ±100 psec. Considering typical liquid flow transit-time differences ranging from 1x104 to 1x106 psec, the flow meter is capable of providing an exceptional turn-down ratio. The flow meter also incorporates a correlation technique which enables the system to detect very high flow velocities with the same high degree of resolution. The ultrasonic sensors are designed with sufficient beam divergence characteristics to insure that the receive sensor will always have sufficient signal to maintain operation under conditions of high beam blowing associated with high flow velocities.
With accurate signal arrival time available, the flow meter can compute the raw flow velocity from the measured upstream and downstream transit times.
Another important consideration is that the ultrasonic flow meter has to compensate for the flow profile to maintain calibration accuracy. Shown below is a graphic of a "fully-developed" flow profile. Note that the fluid velocity increases toward the center (axis) of the flow stream.
(1) Fluid velocity near the axis of the flow stream tends to be greater.
The Reynolds number is then computed as follows:
Rn = 645 * Pipe ID * VF Viscosity where viscosity = cS = cP/density cS = kinematic viscosity cP = absolute viscosity
The flow meter then uses this computation of Reynolds number to compensate the raw flow velocity for conditions of laminar or turbulent flow profile as defined by an internal Reynolds compensation table. The flow meter then converts the compensated flow velocity to volumetric flow rate.
Rate = VF * Comp(Rn) * Pipe area
The flow meter provides Standard Volume output by inferentially determining the liquid API @ 60°F (or the specified base temperature) and then applying the API standard (2540) algorithm as outlined below. Before describing API algorithm the steps required to obtain bulk or actual flow should be reviewed.
Liguldent = Vos + TempSlope * (t - base temp) + PresSlope * (p = base pressure)
where: t = measured temperature (°F)
TempSlope = change in liquid sonic velocity per °F (Linear for petroleum products.)
PresSlope = change in liquid sonic velocity per PSI (Linear for petroleum products.)
Liquident provides an output that identifies the liquid independent of the operating temperature and pressure.
a) ρ60 = (141.5 *999.012) / (131.5 + API60)
The final volume compensated flow rate is then: Std Flow = FLOWBULK * VCF
The flow meter automatically conditions Installation Menu choices to suit the selected meter type. The following illustrates the 2-Channel and 2-Path flow meter types.
Dual Channel provides two independent measurement channels that operate simultaneously. Depending on the specific model, Dual Channel supports: Clamp-on Transit-time, In-line Transit-time and Reflexor.
2-Path flow meters use two measurement channels to achieve a single output via a "virtual" third channel. The resultant data is the average of the two channels. Only clamp-on or in-line transit-time operation is allowed. Benefits include highest available precision and enhanced immunity to distorted flow profile conditions.
As shown in the figure below, an ultrasonic sensor induces an axial sonic beam within the wall of the pipe. These vibrations spread along the pipe wall and then enter the liquid in the form of a WideBeam wave front traveling at an angle to the main pipe axis. The wide beam "rains" over the receiving sensor. The wide coverage of the receiver is necessary because the angle of the sonic beam is related to the liquid's sonic propagation velocity by Snell's Law.
According to this formula, it can be stated that as the liquid sonic propagation velocity changes so will the angle between the sonic beam and the flow stream.
Therefore, a significant liquid sonic velocity shift could deflect a "narrow" beam transmission away from the receiving sensor entirely. The upstream vs. downstream transit-time difference will also be affected by the changing (or refracting) beam angle. This makes it necessary for systems to continuously compute this angle, since it is subject to varying degrees of refraction. The flow meter derives the angle by knowing the fixed position of the sensors, the dimensions of the pipe and the measured transit-time. Therefore, the flow meter computes the beam angle relative to the axis of the pipe.
Normally, the flow stream is in line with the axis of the pipe. On this basis, the calibration factor of a clamp-on ultrasonic flow meter is proportional to the cosine of the beam angle relative to the pipe axis. However, this reveals that if the angle of flow stream is not in line with the pipe axis, the flow calibration factor could be compromised. This most often occurs when the sensor mounting location is within close proximity of a bend or other pipe obstruction. It is recommended that, whenever possible, mount sensors on the longest available straight run of pipe and also use Reflect Mode mounting (as shown below).
Reflect mounting automatically corrects for non-axial flow or cross flow conditions. When the exchange of sonic signals occurs by reflection off the far pipe wall as shown above, the average beam versus stream angle will be equivalent to that of an axial flow stream
In applications with working pressures/media that can be dangerous to people, surroundings, equipment or others in case of pipe fracture, we recommend that special precautions such as special placement, shielding or installation of a pressure guard or a safety valve are taken when the sensor is mounted.
If the flow meter is not used according to the specifications, the manufacturer cannot be held responsible for any resulting damage.
4.3 Application Guidelines
The flow meter has an optional battery charger that operates from a 100, 110 or 220 VAC (50 Hz or 60 Hz) power source. It has a universal power input that requires no user switching. Optional cords can be provided for connection to AC outlets in most countries.
The 1015BCK-1 Power Adapter/Battery charger is NOT waterproof or water resistant. Do not allow it to become wet, or attempt to use it when wet. Exposure to a wet or submerged environment will result in damage to the unit that cannot be repaired and could expose the user to the risk of electric shock.

All portable systems include battery chargers that operate from an AC voltage source. We strongly recommend that you "form" and charge the battery before operating the system for the first time.
A battery status indicator shows the status of its internal battery and charging circuits. The indicator LED color switches between red or green based upon the flow meter operation.
LED Battery Condition | |

Green | Trickle charge in progress |
Red | Rapid Charge in progress (flow meter must be off) |
The flow meter uses an internal, rechargeable battery pack designed for a rapid charge cycle (NiMH, 12 VDC, 3200mAH). The batteries have to be "formed" to deliver their optimum operating time, which is approximately 7 hours. This is accomplished by performing a minimum of two complete discharge/charge cycles.
To remove, replace or dispose of the internal battery pack refer to Maintenance and Service (Page 117) in the instruction manual.
5.1 Transmitter Wiring
To maintain the battery "forming," whenever possible, discharge the battery completely before recharging. If the operating time during battery use appears to be unusually short, then a discharge/charge cycle should lengthen the operating time. If this does not correct a short operating time, then the internal battery should be replaced.

5.2 Sensor Wiring
Reflect and Direct mounting modes are supported for clamp-on sensors. The flow meter recommends a mounting mode after analyzing your pipe and liquid data entries.
When installing sensors, do not key in the V/M (Version/Modification) label number as the Sensor Size.
The transmitter recommends a mounting mode after analyzing your pipe and liquid data entries. However, you can install clamp-on sensors in the way that best suits your application and the sensor type you have purchased.
Figure 5-2 Reflect Mount (Pipe shown from above in 12 o'clock position)
Reflect mount is recommended whenever possible. This is the simplest way to mount the sensors. Also, Reflect mount resists abnormal flow profile conditions such as cross-flow within the flow stream. Reflect mount supports the AutoZero function, which zeroes the flow meter automatically without user-participation. In addition, Reflect mount may be the only possibility if conditions do not allow access to the opposite side of the pipe.
Direct mount provides a shorter sonic beam path. This usually improves performance with sonically attenuative liquids or pipe materials. We recommend using Direct mount for plastic pipes. Compared to Direct mounting, Reflect mount requires almost double the amount of mounting length. Therefore, Direct mount may be the only option if the availability of mounting space is limited.

The EZ Clamp is a quick and easy way to securely mount sensors on any pipe. The spacer bar eliminates manual spacing measurements and provides rigidity for mounting the sensors while maintaining axial alignment.
Figure 5-10 Reflect Mount with EZ-Clamp and Spacer Bar
This view only menu cell shows the distance in inches or millimeters between the front faces of the sensors along the axis of the pipe. If you are mounting the sensors without a track or spacer bar, you have to space them according to this value. Note that Ltn may be a negative number for direct mount on very small pipes where the sensor spacing overlaps.
In some cases, the sensors may have two sets of securing holes. When using the EZ Clamp assembly, use the lower set of holes when attaching the spacer bar.

The combination of EZ Clamp and spacer guide is the recommended way to mount Direct Mode sensors. This method ensures that sensors will align exactly 180° from each other and remain spaced the proper distance apart.
For Direct Mode mounting, a spacer bar is used to establish the distance between sensors and a spacing guide is used to locate the sensors at the nine o'clock and three o'clock positions. Should the distance between sensors be beyond the span of a spacer bar, a measuring tape can be used. The Mylar spacing guide comes in various lengths and widths to accommodate most pipe sizes.

The 1012TP and 1012THP Mounting Tracks provide a rigid mounting platform for Series 1011 Universal or high precision size A or B sensors. The mounting tracks service pipe sizes up to a maximum of 140 mm (5.00") outer diameter. The 1012TP mounting tracks support both Direct and Reflect mounting modes. The transmitter recommends the appropriate sensors, mounting track and mounting mode, based on the pipe data entries.
The Sensor Installation procedures show how the automatic selection of sensors, mounting mode and spacing method are established. Examine the figure below, which illustrates a typical [Install Sensor] menu screen. Note the automatic assignment of mounting track part numbers, plus the designation of the Number Index.

① Automatic selection of mounting track part number , mount mode and Number Index
The combination of two Model 1012TP Mounting Tracks and a spacer guide is the recommended way to mount sensors in the Direct Mode. This method ensures that sensors will align exactly 180° from each other and remain spaced the proper distance apart.
The Direct Mount configuration uses a set of two track rail assemblies; one for each sensor, installed 180° apart on the pipe. The set includes:
• Direct Mode Track Assembly - This track rail has number index holes for inserting an index pin to position the other sensor.
5.2 Sensor Wiring
Index pins are used as stops against each sensor inserted at the reference hole for one sensor and the Number Index hole for the other sensor (see (1)) in figure below).
FUP1010 IP67 Portable Operating Instructions, 03/2012, A5E02951522-02
Some sensors require a right-angle adapter. This adapter should be installed before placing the sensors in the tracks.

For a vertical pipe installation, use a tie, tape or bungee cord to hold the two tracks in place while chaining.
6. Finger-tighten the chain Tension Screw to secure the chain and tracks to the pipe.
1. Wrap a length of the Mylar spacing guide around the pipe and against the end of the track assemblies. Ensure that the spacer guide edges on both sides align. Arrange so that one end overlaps the other by at least 8 cm (3 inches). Trim to fit if necessary, but in order to keep the end square, be sure not to trim at the overlapping end.

2. Remove the spacer guide. Measure or fold spacer guide to find its halfway distance. Mark a center line and then tape spacer guide to pipe.
5.2 Sensor Wiring
3. Use the edge of the Spacer Guide as a stop for both tracks to keep them parallel. Adjust tracks as necessary.
4. Loosen the chains enough to allow you to rotate the track assembly until the center of one track aligns with the center line on the Spacer Guide and the center of the other track aligns at the point where the Spacer Guide ends meet. The tracks should now be 180° apart. Tighten both chains but not too tight.

Remember to install the sensors with the cable connectors facing away from each other.
Unlike turbine flow meters ultrasonic transit-time flow meters provide active flow measurement right down to zero flow, however, the measurement of the transit-time delta is dependent on the similarity or "match" of the electronics, cables and ultrasonic sensors. Consequently some flow offset (or zero offset) may be present in any installation. To eliminate this residual zero offset Siemens has developed several different methods to insure proper zero flow compensation. The following paragraphs describe each method and when they should be used.
When the 1011HP sensors are mounted in the Reflect Mode configuration the AutoZero routine is automatically invoked at the end of the Initial Makeup. Flow does not have to be stopped to perform AutoZero since only the pipe wall signal is used in determining the zero offset and not the liquid component. The AutoZero routine performs a one-time analysis of the pipe wall component of the ultrasound signal to quantify any residual mismatch in the hardware. Once the AutoZero routine is complete, the system memorizes this measured zero offset and subtracts this value from the flow reading.
5.3 Zero Flow Adjust Menu
The Actual Zero function simply averages the indicated "zero flow" readings (over a user defined time period) then stores this average value in memory. Under normal operation the indicated flow reading is zero compensated by simply subtracting this memorized value from the uncompensated flow reading. Actual Zero is the most positive method for zeroing the system; however, flow must be stopped with the line blocked (if possible) before invoking this function. If stopping flow is not possible then an alternate zeroing method should be selected.
This routine involves swapping the Up and Down sensors on the pipe (while keeping the cables attached) such that the difference in the transit-time change represents the zero offset. The fixed zero offset value is stored in memory in the same manner as described in Actual Zero. This routine would generally be used whenever flow cannot be stopped and the sensors cannot be mounted in the Reflect Mode configuration. Flow must be stable during the entire process.
When ZeroMatic is invoked the flow meter first performs the same analysis as described above in the AutoZero routine. However, after this analysis is complete the flow meter continues to interrogate the pipe wall signal and update the zero offset value under normal operation, such that the flow meter dynamically compensates for changing conditions which would normally result in zero drift. ZeroMatic will only operate with the sensors mounted in the Reflect Mode configuration and is recommended for applications which experience large temperature extremes.
Invoking ZeroMatic will clear any existing "fixed" or memorized zero offset. If any zero offset remains after flow is stopped, an Actual Zero can be performed without interrupting ZeroMatic operation. To disable ZeroMatic, invoke it again, but then press <Left Arrow> to abort the installation.
The ZeroClr command only resets the memorized zero offset registers not those set when the AutoZero routine is invoked.
Flow must be stopped with the line blocked (if possible) before invoking this function.
If a flow offset is desired (i.e., to test analog outputs) then press <Right Arrow> to enable numeric entry.
3. Press <ENTER> to start the Actual Zero process.
When you send the command, the flow meter analyzes the current flow rate for up to sixty seconds, integrating (averaging) the data for the best zero correlation. During this time, the menu prompt at the top of the display screen shows a timer that counts from zero to sixty. You can allow zero averaging for the entire period, or cancel the process at any time by pressing the <ENTER> key. This controls the amount of data the flow meter averages to obtain a zero level.
If site conditions do not permit stopping the flow rate at the mounting location, and you do not know the current flow rate, then you can use the ReversaMatic routine to establish the zero flow level. You should perform the ReversaMatic procedure as quickly as possible to ensure that the flow rate remains constant throughout the procedure.
5.3 Zero Flow Adjust Menu
This completes the ReversaMatic procedure. The system's zero accuracy will be very close to that obtainable using the Actual Zero method, providing flow remained constant during this procedure.
A caution on the use of upper and lower flow limits (used to prevent flow mis-registration) prior to using the Reversal Zero technique (ReversaMatic): If the negative flow rate that the flow meter reads in the step during which the sensors are reversed is more negative than the lower flow limit, the meter will re-register positive and the Reversal Zero cycle will thus be corrupted.
Therefore, postpone the installation of upper and lower flow limits until the reversal zero procedure is executed successfully. For pipes that combine large diameters with very high flow velocities, it may be necessary to move the upper and lower flow limits out of the way until the reversal zero is completed. Moreover, pipes of this size frequently have excellent intrinsic zero performance and may not even need zeroing.
ZeroMatic is used in the Reflect Mode only. Invoking ZeroMatic clears any existing fixed zero offset.
Use this menu cell to select the ZeroMatic option. If conditions permit the use of the Auto Zero function then the ZeroMatic option can be used as well.
If ZeroMatic is not running, the [Actual Zero] menu item will be displayed next to the [Zero Flow Adjust] menu cell.
3. Select the [ZeroMatic] menu cell by pressing <Up/Down Arrow> then press <ENTER>.
When the Initial Makeup of ZeroMatic is complete the screen will return to the [Install Sensor] menu and automatically highlight [Operation Adjust], which is the next menu cell.

The flow meter performs the MTYmatic routine automatically during its Initial Make-up to establish a standard setting for the Empty Pipe alarm. This process is normally sufficient for setting this parameter. The [Empty Pipe Set] option list allows you to re-invoke MTYmatic, use an Actual MTY routine (if application conditions allow you to empty and refill the pipe) or use the Set Empty routine to set the empty pipe threshold by direct numeric entry.
If application conditions allow you to empty and refill the pipe, then you may choose to perform the Actual Empty procedure; however, it is not required to do so.
NEVER perform the Actual MTY procedure if the pipe can not be emptied.

Use [Set Empty] to enter a number that represents the signal strength level consistent with an empty pipe. [Set Empty] uses non-linear scaling. There is no direct correlation between the number you enter and any standard amplitude unit. If you set the number too low, the meter may not detect a true empty pipe. If you set it too high, it could trigger the empty pipe alarm, suspending flow measurement, even though the liquid is flowing.

The [Totalizer Scale] menu cell shows the applicable flow total units. The sign of the Batch/Sample Total determines positive or negative accumulation. |

The [Span Data] menu allows you to set 0% and 100% output limits for volumetric flow (Vfo), absolute flow (Vfab) and sonic velocity (Vs). Each menu cell shows appropriate rate units and time base. If you change flow rate units after spanning the system, the computer automatically updates the output data setup to reflect the change. Span limits apply to both the analog outputs and the on-screen strip chart. The flow outputs operate as follows:
Vfo
Spanned Volumetric:: |
The minimum and maximum flow rate entries
establish the Vfo span. The Max Flow menu cell sets 100% of span. The Min Flow menu cell sets 0% of span. Use signed numbers for bi- directional spanning. Note that negative (reverse) flow always is lower than positive flow, whatever its absolute magnitude. For example, for a flow measurement range of -30 GPM to +10 GPM, the 4mA span will be -30 GPM, and the 20mA span will be +10 GPM. |
---|---|
Vfab
Spanned Absolute Volumetric Flow Rate: |
Vfab is the absolute magnitude of the volumetric
flow rate (Vfo). There are no menu cells provided to span this output. Vfab shares the Vfo span entries. The Vfab minimum span is always zero. The maximum span for Vfab is the largest absolute value of either the min. or the max. flow rate (Vfo) entries. For example, a span between +10 GPM and -30 GPM, spans the Vfab output from 0 GPM to 30 GPM. |
Vs
Spanned liquid sonic Velocity: |
Vs is the sonic velocity in meters-per-second
(m/s) of the flowing liquid. The min. and max. Vs entries establish the Vs span. Max Vs (m/s) defines 100% of span. The Min Vs (m/s) defines 0% of span. |
Maximum span values represent: | Minimum span values represent: |

The Logger Control menu in the [Meter Facilities] menu provides the Logger controls for the flow meter measurement channels and paths. It allows the user to select data items/alarm events, a logging interval and a destination for Logger reports. While the Logger Setup menu is measurement channel/path specific, this Logger Control menu provides global control functions. This means that the settings made here apply to all measurement channels/paths, meter types, operating modes, etc. This is possible because the flow meter stores logged data in a single file.
The [Est LogTime Left] menu view-only menu cell shows an estimate of the hours and minutes of logging time remaining. For convenience sake, the Display Logger command is essentially a duplicate of the menu cell in Logger Setup. It sends Logger data to the graphic screen with or without line wrapping. The Output Logger command sends data to an external device via the RS-232 serial port. The Clear Logger command erases the entire Logger file.

7.3 Logger Control
This menu cell allows you to send the Logger contents to the display screen. This command is effective only after a successful install. You can set the report to scroll on the screen with or without line-wrap. Selecting line wrap, forces a line feed after approximately 40 characters. In addition, you have to enable datalogging and then select items in the Logger Setup menu. Note that this command transmits the data from both channels/paths.
1. Press <Right Arrow> to access the [Display Logger] option list.
This menu cell allows you to send the Logger contents to an external device (usually a computer or printer) via the flow meter's RS-232 Serial I/O port. This command is effective only after a successful install. In addition, you have to enable datalogging and select data items in the [Logger Setup] menu.
The flow meter interfaces with most serial printers or personal computers for Logger printouts. You must use the proper cabling between the flow meter and the external device. In addition, you must configure the RS-232 Setup correctly. You should turn off the Logger function before you transmit an extensive printout. This will avoid contaminating the printout with new Logger data. Logger reports are sequential ASCII text files.
In its default mode, the Logger collects data until its memory becomes full. At that time the flow meter suspends datalogging and cannot resume until the Logger memory is cleared (see Clear Logger command). Circular Memory allows the Logger to "'write over" its oldest records when memory reaches full capacity. If you enable [Circular Memory], you are assured of always collecting the most recent data. But also remember that you will lose the oldest Logger reports and that further invoking of [Circular Memory] deletes the current contents of the Logger.
Est LogTime Left is a "view-only" menu cell that shows an estimate of the amount of Logger time remaining in hours and minutes. This menu cell becomes active after you enable datalogging. Selecting [Circular Memory] and/or event-based datalogging (see Logger Setup), blanks the [Est LogTime Left] field and is based on the log interval and data selections made in the Logger Setup.
If you use the Logger in its default mode, eventually you will use all the memory available for Logger storage. When this occurs, you will not be able to log more data until you free up the memory. The [Clear Logger] command erases ALL stored Logger data. Therefore, you should evaluate the currently stored data, and print any valuable information before using this command.

7.4 Operation Adjust Menu Settings
The [Operation Adjust] menu becomes available after picking a meter type and measurement channel. It is recommended that you use it after the sensors are installed and operating to "fine-tune" the meter's output characteristics.
Each application presents different data display and output requirements due to unique pipe and liquid conditions. Use the [Operation Adjust] menu to match flow meter operation to the site. You can set damping controls for the primary flow rate output. You can define a Deadband, (usually a very low flow rate), below which the flow output will be forced to zero. You can also select the flow meter response to a continuous Fault condition.
The flow meter provides two different data output filter types, Time Average and SmartSlew. Time Average (recommended) integrates the instantaneous flow rate over a selectable time period. Use the Time Average function when stability in flow reading is essential. A value entered (in seconds) sets the time it takes the flow meter to respond to a rate change. The default is 10 seconds. Enter any amount of time up to 60 seconds maximum.
SmartSlew performs data scatter damping during steady flow periods while maintaining the ability to respond to changing flow rates. SmartSlew values range from [1 to 9]. Pick a higher number to slow flow meter response to a rate change.

Use the Deadband Control to instruct the flow meter to report zero flow if the flow rate falls below a specified level (usually a very low rate). It will prevent the possibility of data scatter (a natural result of digital computation) from causing false Totalizer accumulation during long non-flowing periods. Inspect the actual data scatter during zero flow conditions to find the proper Deadband setting for your application.
7.4 Operation Adjust Menu Settings
Certain situations will interrupt data production (e.g., an empty pipe or excessive aeration). Use Memory/Fault Set to select the flow meter response to such an interruption. The Fault setting (default) will zero the flow rate output and declare an alarm on a flow display screen, Datalogger report and an assigned relay output.
For some applications, occasional temporary Fault conditions may be a normal part of the process and would not require an alarm response. The flow meter offers a Memory operating mode to support such an application. Memory Mode suspends the flow meter Fault response by preventing the flow outputs from dropping to zero for the interval specified in the Memory Delay menu cell. During the Memory duration, the flow meter will maintain the last valid flow reading measured before the onset of the fault condition. The default Memory Delay is 60 seconds. You may select any duration from 3 to 604,800 seconds (one week).
Selecting [Memory Delay <s>] activates the suppressed [Memory Delay] menu cell. It allows you to specify the number of seconds that the flow meter maintains its last valid flow reading. When the memory delay expires, it triggers the fault alarm response described previously.
The [Zero/Fault set] menu option only appears on the display if the selected channel is the Reflexor mode.
The Reflexor declares a Fault when the receive signal drops below the Doppler detection threshold. To change the Reflexor response to a Zero Flow indication rather than a Fault, select [Zero] in the [Zero/Fault Set] menu option. Note the following:
Use the [Relay Setup] menu to assign a function to channel relays. The flow meter supports two types of relay outputs, Alarm Relay and Pulse Relay. Alarm Relay outputs operate in "fail-safe" mode. The relay(s) are energized under normal conditions - an alarm condition causes the relay(s) to de-energize until the alarm clears. The Pulse Relay output supports Totalizer and batch relay functions, with an output pulse width of approximately 200 ms; maximum activation rate is 2.5 pulses per sec. If Totalizer pulses exceed this rate, excess pulses are stored in an overflow register. This allows the relay to "catch up" when flow decreases enough.
Using the <F1> key (Totalizer clear command) also clears all channel Totalizers plus the overflow register described in the last paragraph.
The flow meter, depending upon the model, provides at least two alarm relays. Please refer to the Appendix (Page 143) for wiring details. Relays respond to any of the alarm conditions or data functions included on the Relay Option List.

7.6 Memory Control
Memory Control is a reference menu that shows the amount of bytes of data memory left. The data memory capacity depends on the number and complexity of the site setups stored in memory and the size of the current Datalogger file.
The [Memory Control] menu is located in the [Meter Facilities] menu.

This view only menu cell shows the minimum remaining number of characters available for Datalogger and site storage. When the Datalogger is enabled for circular mode, the meter allocates all memory left except for two conventional empty sites required for Datalogger use.
To view the amount of data memory bytes available press <Right Arrow>.
Selecting [YES] for this item enables a snapshot display of current memory usage. In this display, the asterisk indicates a used memory block, a space indicates a free block, while a dash character indicates unused filler.
Selecting [YES] for this item consolidates memory data blocks into contiguous storage; collapsing the filler regions. You may be able to use an additional block for site or Datalogger storage as a result. Use this command if you seem to be out of memory even though the [Log Memory Left] item indicates free capacity.
7.7 Analog Out Setup
The flowmeter provides current, voltage and pulse-rate analog outputs. The [Analog Out Setup] menu allows you to assign data functions for these signals. The transmitter terminal strip contains the analog output terminals.
lo (Isolated Current) | 4 to 20mA varies in proportion to an assigned data function. |
Vo (DC Voltage) | 0 to 10 VDC varies in proportion to an assigned data function. |
Pgen (TTI Logic) | 0 to 5000 Hz varies in proportion to an assigned data function. |

7.8 Analog Input Setup
The Vo analog output is a 0-10 VDC signal that varies linearly in relation to a selected function.
Refer to drawing 1010N-7-7 for Analog output connections.
The Pgen analog output is a buffered TTL-compliant pulse rate signal that varies linearly from 0-5000 Hz in relation to a selected data function.
Some versions of the FUP1010 portable flow meter have the ability to read analog input signals. The [Analog Inp Setup] menu cell is not displayed if the operating system of your model does not include this facility.
The optional Analog Input Setup function assigns an active analog input to a measurement channel/path. The flow meter provides two DC current (4-20mA) and two voltage (0-10V) input ports for single channel, Dual Channel and Dual Path units. The DC current input ranges from a zero level of 4mA to a full scale of 20mA and allows you to enable this port and then span it to any desired scaling.
For example, when using the analog input Aux function, assigned numeric variables for temperature monitoring might be spanned as follows: 4mA=1 (0°C / 32°F) and 20mA=100 (100°C / 212°F). Temperature data sent to the Aux 1 input port will feed through the flow meter and report the scaling data to the Datalogger.
Although the flow meter receives these signals, the standard operating system will not use them as available in any of its operations. The analog input only acts as a convenient "feed-through" to add data to Datalogger reports.
There will be no numeric units shown next to the output data. Be aware of the appropriate units when entering scaling data and when viewing the resultant output on the Datalogger report.
Refer to the Installation Drawings or I/O Module markings for the locations of these inputs and wiring procedures.

7.9 Analog Output Trim
Analog Out Trim function allows you to fine-tune the flow meter's analog voltage and current outputs using a multi-meter connected to the output under test. In addition, you can use a frequency counter to fine-tune the flow meter's pulse rate output.
The current, voltage, and Pgen trimming will be limited by the 12-bit resolution of the flow meter's D/A Convertor (DAC).
