AXF Verication Tool is a PC application software running in conjunction with FieldMate R2.05.00
or later.
Without having to remove the AXF magnetic owmeter from process line, its condition can be
veried by checking several items and this tool provides a certicate that the unit is operating in
accordance with YOKOGAWA standards. It is essentially an indication that the AXF is operating
to its standards and is useful in supporting plant maintenance practices. It differs from actual-ow
calibration at a manufacturing plant.
This tool stores verication data (*1) in a database (*2) in an organized manner, and can be used
to print a Verication Report that has not only the individual verication items (*3) result but also
the overall status of “passed” or “failed”. It is thus useful for device maintenance management.
*1: Verication data means the data saved by the user.
*2: Database means a collection of verication data saved in Device Maintenance Information.
*3: For the verication items, refer to 2.2.

2.1 Conguration
The following equipment is required to use Verication Tool ver. 1.01.00;
• YOKOGAWA magnetic owmeter AXF with HART Communication (AXF Output Signal and
Communication sufx code: -E).
• PC (*1) and Printer
• Magnetic Flowmeter Calibrator AM012 (Only for Enhanced VF (*2), Optional)
• Handy Calibrator CA150 or equivalent (Only for Enhanced VF (*2), Optional)
• Insulation Checker (Only for Enhanced VF (*2), Optional)
*1: Regarding the PC environment, refer to IM 01R01A01-01E Part B,C.
*2: VF stands for “Verication”.

2.2 Verication Item
This Verication Tool has 2 modes, which can be run separately.
1. Standard Verication (Standard VF)
• This mode veries the condition of the AXF without difculty by checking its internal parameters. No external instruments are required.
• Some items are run only when FieldMate is in “online (*1)” mode.
2. Enhanced Verication (Enhanced VF) [Optional]
• This mode provides a more reliable verication by performing a detailed overview equivalent
to SERVICE.
• This mode is optional. If only this mode is completed, “Overall Status” is left blank.
• This mode veries AXF by using external instruments, such as Magnetic Flowmeter Calibrator AM012, Handy Calibrator CA150, and so on.
• Even when FieldMate is in “ofine (*2)” mode, this mode can be run; in this case, some settings must be made manually.
There are only 2 possible combinations:
1. Standard VF
2-3
2. Standard VF + Enhanced VF

*1: Online: The status in which the software communicates with a device.
*2: Ofine: The status in which the software does not communicate with a device.
The communication status between FieldMate and AXF can be conrmed on the FieldMate window.
*3: These items are checked only when Verication Tool is in “online” mode.
*4: When Verication Tool is in “ofine” mode, manual setting is necessary.
